Introducing Intelligent Performance From A2 Hosting

Speed and performance are key to a successful website. But optimizing your site takes time. You need to review the data and test optimizations to see what performs best.

A2 Hosting is revolutionizing that process with Intelligent Performance for TurboHub. It makes enhancing the speed and performance of WordPress sites simple without extensive technical knowledge.

With a single click, Intelligent Performance uses advanced AI technology to analyze your site and automatically optimize it for the best speed and efficiency.

There’s no need to adjust settings or experiment with configurations manually — TurboHub does it all for you.

How Our AI-Enhanced WordPress Performance Optimizations Work

Intelligent Performance uses AI to automatically analyze and optimize your WordPress website’s performance. It saves you time by taking the guesswork out of optimizing your site. With one click, it automatically adjusts your settings for peak performance.

Here is how Intelligent Performance works:

• Real-Time Analysis: Intelligent Performance analyzes load times and other critical performance indicators, building a real-time profile about how your WordPress site responds.
• Automatic Optimization: It automatically uses that data to optimize and enhance your site’s speed and performance. It improves as it learns your site, so you can continue reoptimizing for peak performance.
• Instant Results: You can easily monitor real-time performance insights from your TurboHub dashboard to see how much faster your site is after the enhancements.
• Rollback Option: If you aren’t happy with the performance optimization, you can quickly and easily roll back to your previous settings. This gives you the flexibility to try Intelligent Performance without any risk.

The post One-Click WordPress Optimization With Intelligent Performance For TurboHub appeared first on The A2 Posting.

Like most hosting companies, A2 Hosting once focused on integrating existing solutions to improve our products. But what do you do when a solution isn’t available?

I recently sat down with founder and CEO Bryan Muthig and CTO Justin Mazzi to discuss the evolution of hosting and the changing role A2 Hosting plays in that space.

Over the last decade, we have shifted from integrators to innovators – creating custom solutions to meet our customer’s needs. The result? Fast, safer, and overall easier hosting solutions for everyone.

You can see this innovation in tools like A2 Optimized and TurboHub and in our commitment to a range of affordable hosting tiers, from Shared Web Hosting to Dedicated Server Hosting.

Bryan, Justin, and I talked about how they got started in hosting, where A2 Hosting is today, and how we plan to continue to lead the industry with innovative new technologies and tools.

How Has Hosting Changed?

Hosting was originally a technical solution, merely space on a web server. Whatever you wanted to see, you had to either code yourself or hire someone who could. But that has changed over time, especially over the last decade.

Coding servers has been a lifelong passion for Bryan, but it’s important to remember that hasn’t always been easy.

Sharing some of his early experiences, he said, “I think back on how many blue screens of death I got. It was all hard. It took time. You really had to learn.”

“It was mostly engineers, technical people fiddling around with this stuff in those days.”

But he acknowledged that the landscape has shifted, with A2 Hosting keeping pace. Not only are the hardware and software more stable, but we are thinking about the user experience and user interface today.

It’s not just about making things work but making them more elegant to match the growing mass-market appeal.

“Having that technical background, I realized we needed to make it easy for customers. Even though we have made huge advancements, we continue to have this conversation. How do we make things easy for both the technical folks and those who just need it to work?”

Adding his perspective, Justin said, “When I think about the biggest technological innovations, I focus on the open-source communities that have evolved.”

“As a result, we have much more advanced software that is accessible for free in a lot of cases, or at least has a nice community behind it… That’s made the experience of using it much, much better,” he added.

How Has A2 Hosting Remained An Industry Leader?

Evolution is inevitable. I asked Bryan and Justin to think about how A2 Hosting will continue to lead the hosting industry with more innovations.

They both said that the key is listening to our customers and developing solutions that fit their needs. Initially, most of those solutions involved integrating pieces from other companies. But that only got us so far.

“At the core, we’re still integrators setting up the base platform. And we have great tools for that… But we have seen over the years that there are limitations to what is available.” Bryan said.

Continuing that thought, Justin added, “At some point, the tools that we need to take us to that next level don’t exist. We know our customers want faster-performing websites, we know it’s difficult to optimize for Google. But since no tool out there does that, we decided we were going to build it.”

“It’s not just the people and knowledge we have, but also the relationships. It’s being able to work directly with a vendor like LightSpeed to not only integrate but to actually build something together that gets us to that next level,” he said.

This is what led A2 Hosting to develop TurboHub, our exclusive control panel for our WordPress Hosting plans.

Talking about TurboHub, Bryan said, “We wanted to make WordPress easier, faster, and more secure for our customers, but there was nothing we could buy that would do that. So this is a custom layer above our integrations, above the platform.”

How Will A2 Hosting Continue To Evolve The Industry?

Looking at the next steps for A2 Hosting, our goal is to continue to evolve and innovate solutions that make things easier for our customers.

Bryan said, “Nobody needs to know how the iPhone works. You want to hit a button and have it do what you need it to do. Similarly, that is what I’m passing along internally here at A2 Hosting.”

“Our customers just want green Google PageSpeed scores and to pass core web vitals. And our focus is to make it easy for them to do that. That’s what I find exciting right now.”

Justin added, “I’m very excited about being in a position to be able to build these kinds of tools. It’s a problem I personally wanted to solve for a long time. I even tried it at another company and ran out of runway there. So I’m glad to pick up that work again, to be deep in WordPress and solving those problems again.”

But TurboHub, our exclusive dashboard for WordPress sites, gives you a snapshot of your security status and makes detecting vulnerabilities and updating your protection as easy as one click.

Whether you take care of your own website or are an agency or web developer who manages dozens of sites, TurboHub makes reviewing security status and making the necessary updates a breeze.

Advanced WordPress Security From One Easy-To-Use Dashboard

The TurboHub security tab is the fastest and easiest way to keep your site safe. Whether you manage one website or 1,000, it is vital for monitoring site health and security.

Loaded with features to keep you secure, you can quickly review potential threats in one convenient place. Verify your SSL certificates, make sure malware detection and proactive defenses are enabled, and review potential threats.

Plus, TurboHub recommends actions to eliminate security vulnerabilities. From salt key status to inactive plugins or themes, you can take immediate action directly from the control panel. In most cases, you can enhance your security with one click.

What Is TurboHub?

TurboHub is A2 Hosting’s exclusive control panel for WordPress sites. Designed to make managing and protecting WordPress sites easier, it offers comprehensive metrics about the performance, health, and security of your websites.

Improve your efficiency and workflow by reviewing all of your A2 Hosting WordPress sites in one place. Easily view current performance and security snapshots, review recommendations, and make improvements and updates across all of your sites.

TurboHub Security Features

WordPress site security is one of the core features of the TurboHub control panel. From proactive defense to security best practices, it puts the top security features at your fingertips.

SSL Status & Proactive Defense

When it comes to website security, you need to be proactive. TurboHub’s SSL status and proactive defense indicators ensure your SSL certificate is valid and your malware and proactive security defense are active.

SSL, or Secure Sockets Layer, is the industry standard in data encryption for information transferred between a web server and a web browser. It protects online transactions and personal information, ensuring data privacy over the Internet.

A valid SSL certificate tells web browsers – and your customers – that your website follows SSL protocols for secure data transfer, keeping them safe.

Malware and proactive security defenses protect your website against malicious attacks that can hijack your website or steal customer data.

Advanced Website Hosting Protection

TurboHub allows you to instantly validate the status of your firewall and DDoS and brute force protection. These ensure you are safe against attacks designed to gain access to your web server.

A firewall is a digital barrier that blocks unauthorized access to your sites from cyber threats. When active, they block malicious traffic based on predefined security rules.

Reinforced Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection prevents malicious attempts to attack your website and take them offline. DDoS attacks use multiple compromised computer systems to slow down or even crash websites, preventing access to legitimate users.

Brute force protection shields against relentless attacks attempting to log into your system. Attackers will systematically try to guess passwords, encryption keys, or other secret information. Brute force attacks are typically automated, allowing them to rapidly test millions of combinations.

A2 Recommended Actions

TurboHub also includes a number of A2 Hosting recommended security actions, like locking editing abilities on plugins and themes or bcrypt password hashing. These recommendations improve your overall website security, lowering the risk that hackers can access your site data.

Common recommendations include:

• Locking the editing for plugins and themes from WP Admin to prevent the misuse of built-in editing capabilities for malicious purposes.
• Deny direct access to configuration files to block bots and web users from directly accessing and potentially exploiting WordPress config files.
• Remove old wp-config.php backups to eliminate unnecessary files with potentially sensitive information.
• Use bcrypt password hashing for a more secure password storing and hashing method.
• Disable XML-RPC services to close a possible entryway a hacker could exploit your site.

You can easily toggle these options on or off from the TurboHub security panel to fit your security needs and keep your website data safe.

Best Security Practices

TurboHub also analyzes your website to ensure you are following the best security practices. You can identify potential vulnerabilities at a glance and take action to secure your sites. Simply review the recommended security updates and follow the instructions to implement these improvements.

When necessary, TurboHub will recommend the following actions:

• Regenerate salt key passwords to protect your account even if your login cookies are compromised.
• Check for and remove insecure SQL backups and files that could be accessed by hackers.
• Reduce potential vulnerabilities and improve site performance by removing unused plugins and unused WordPress themes.

Just follow the steps associated with each best practice to protect your site.
