Fast Sites.
Strong Security.
Automate Updates.

Yes — we are the hosting company, but Staq is far more than just hosting. Traditional hosts often rely on agencies to patch WordPress problems with third-party plugins or by “throwing more resources” at issues. That approach wastes server power, adds complexity, and usually creates new points of failure.

Staq is built differently. We’ve designed our platform from the ground up to deliver scalable WordPress hosting and streamlined management by removing inefficient plugins and replacing them with native features for caching, security, updates, reporting, and more. This means:

• Less resource drain — no bloated plugin stacks eating server performance.
• Less firefighting — issues are prevented at the infrastructure level, not patched reactively.
• More efficiency — faster, more stable WordPress sites without the hidden overhead.

We’re a hosting provider, yes — but one engineered specifically to solve the underlying problems of running and scaling WordPress for agencies.

We currently operate in:

• Sydney, Australia
• Oregon, USA
• London, UK
• Cape Town, South Africa (coming soon)

Our support is already 24/7, and our infrastructure is designed to scale into new regions as demand grows. If you’d like to use Staq in a location we don’t yet serve, reach out—we’re always open to exploring new regions when it’s a win-win for both sides.

Not at all. You’re free to install any plugin you like — whether that’s ManageWP, WP Rocket, or anything else.

But here’s what agencies tell us: when they switch fully to Staq’s built-in features, they notice:

• Fewer fires to put out — less troubleshooting and patching.
• Less management overhead — fewer dashboards, fewer moving parts.
• Happier clients — fewer complaints about speed, uptime, and performance.
• Lower costs — fewer third-party plugin subscriptions eating into margins.

We began building the Staq platform in 2017, focusing on creating a purpose-built WordPress tech stack for agencies. By 2020 we launched our beta, and in early 2022 we moved into full production. Since then, Staq has been growing steadily month after month, powered by the trust and feedback of our digital agency partners worldwide.

We take sustainability seriously. Staq is built on AWS, which has committed to reaching 100% renewable energy by 2025 and is already the largest corporate buyer of renewable energy in the world. AWS data centers are designed for energy efficiency and optimized cooling, resulting in a lower carbon footprint compared to traditional hosting.

On top of that, we’ve engineered Staq Cache — our own high-performance caching layer — which is far more efficient than third-party WordPress caching plugins that often duplicate work and consume unnecessary resources. Staq Cache runs natively at the platform level, reducing compute cycles and energy waste.

We also include Redis Object Cache for free, which optimizes how WordPress stores and retrieves data. By reducing redundant database queries and server load, Redis dramatically improves site responsiveness while lowering the overall energy consumed per request.

In short: efficient code = less wasted energy. By combining AWS’s renewable-powered infrastructure with Staq’s optimized caching systems, your agency gets faster WordPress sites that also tread lighter on the planet.
