- Dedicated Redis Object Cache
The stack behind your site.
Every technical choice on Stack2 is made with WordPress performance and security in mind.
LiteSpeed + Redis
LiteSpeed handles PHP far faster than Apache. Redis object caching keeps repeated database queries off disk — critical for WordPress and WooCommerce performance.
Isolated containers
Your WordPress site runs in its own container, not a shared directory. One compromised site can't touch yours. Noisy neighbors are a thing of the past.
WordPress WAF
Web Application Firewall rules pre-tuned for WordPress attack patterns — XML-RPC abuse, login brute-force, plugin exploits. On by default, updated continuously.
Nightly backups
Full site + database backup every night, stored off-site in Melbourne. One-click restore from the portal — no ticket, no waiting.
PHP 8.x + MariaDB
PHP 8.x supported. Select per site from the portal. MariaDB for the database layer — faster than MySQL on many WordPress workloads.
WordPress-literate support
Support tickets are handled by engineers who work with WordPress daily. Plugin conflicts, caching issues, slow queries — they know the common problems and how to fix them.
The fundamentals, on every plan.
No upsell ladders. The things you'd expect from a host are part of the price — regardless of which plan you're on.
LiteSpeed technology
High-performance LiteSpeed web server on every plan — significantly faster than Apache for PHP-driven sites.
Isolated container per site
Your site runs in its own container. No shared directories, no noisy neighbours. Resources are yours.
PHP 5.6–8.5 + Node.js
Choose your PHP version per site from the portal, or run Node.js apps. PHP 8.5 recommended for best performance.
Nightly backups
Full site and database snapshots every night, stored off-site. One-click restore from the dashboard.
Outbound spam filtering
Email sent from your site is filtered before it leaves our servers — keeping your domain off spam blacklists.
Web Application Firewall
WAF rules block common attack patterns — SQL injection, XSS, WordPress exploits — before they reach your app.
Realtime malware scanning
Files are scanned continuously. Compromised code is flagged immediately — not discovered after the damage is done.
DDoS protection
Network-level DDoS mitigation absorbs volumetric attacks upstream. Your site stays available when being targeted.
Hosted DNS
DNS managed by Stack2 with fast global propagation. We configure it when your site goes live.
Free SSL certificates
Let's Encrypt SSL on every domain, auto-renewed. HTTPS is on before your site is live.
MariaDB + PostgreSQL
MariaDB for WordPress and MySQL-compatible apps, PostgreSQL for everything else. Both included on every plan.
Engineer support
Email and ticket support on every plan. Handled by the engineers who run the platform — median reply 18 minutes.

Yes. Free migrations are included on all plans. We migrate from cPanel, SiteGround, Kinsta, WP Engine, and many other hosts. We handle the migration and DNS cutover; you verify the site looks right. Most sites are live the same business day.
Yes. WooCommerce runs well on Stack2. Redis caching is particularly useful for stores as it keeps session and cart data off the database. For high-traffic stores we recommend the Scale plan. Contact us to discuss your requirements.
PHP 5.6 through 8.5. You can select the version per site from the portal. We recommend PHP 8.5 for new WordPress installations — it is significantly faster than older versions.
Managed updates are available on Site Care plans. We monitor for WordPress core, plugin, and theme updates and apply them on a schedule. A backup is taken before any update — rollback is one click if something breaks.
Yes. Each plan hosts one site with isolated resources — each client stays separate. The Scale plan is popular with agencies managing high-traffic client sites. We also have a partner program for agencies managing five or more sites.
Nightly backups mean you can restore to yesterday's working state with one click from the portal. For critical incidents, the on-call engineer can assist with rollback via a support ticket. We also scan for malware in real time — a compromised plugin is flagged immediately.

Headless WordPress — hosted in full on Stack2.
Some agencies are decoupling the WordPress CMS from the frontend and building with Next.js. Stack2 supports the complete headless WordPress stack — PHP, MySQL, Node.js, Redis, and Postgres — on Australian infrastructure. One platform for both layers.
