WordPress hosting

Host WordPress on your own server

WordPress can run on hardware you control: a mini-PC, Linux machine, virtual machine or home server.

Dexlinkx helps with the surrounding server work: setup, domains, SSL, databases, updates and monitoring.

What WordPress needs

WordPress is beginner-friendly, but the server behind it still needs a few important parts.

WordPress needs a web server and PHP runtime to serve pages.

Posts, users, settings and plugin data are stored in a database such as MariaDB or MySQL.

Your domain points to the server, and SSL lets visitors use HTTPS.

Agents report status and health so you can understand if the server needs attention.
