Most marketing agencies stop at the campaign. We kept getting called when clients' websites went down, got hacked or crawled to a stop, so we built the fix ourselves: Time to Deploy, our private cloud hosting and management service, available exclusively to RB Creative clients. Here is what it is, what it runs and what it costs.
Why does a marketing agency run its own hosting?
Because a website is not a set it and forget it part of your business anymore. Technology evolves, and website software is continuously updated to improve security, load speed and visibility to search engines. Like your smartphone or your Office package, your website needs updating too.
And just like it costs more to fix a car than to maintain it properly, it costs more to fix a website issue than to prevent it. We are firm believers in DIY projects, but we think those are best left in the garden. Skipping monthly maintenance usually means losing money quietly: slower pages, missed leads, security holes. We wrote more about that in our maintenance guide.
What exactly is Time to Deploy?
Our Enterprise WordPress Management and Hosting solution, ideal for businesses that demand high availability, redundancy, security and fast indexing. It runs on enterprise-grade infrastructure in London, United Kingdom, with the exact configuration published: Xeon 4-Core E3-1230v6 at 3.5GHz, 32 GB ECC RAM, 2x1TB enterprise SSD in RAID with 250 GB remote backups, a dedicated 1Gbps port and CloudLinux with live kernel patching. We deliver 99.98% of the time.
What does the managed layer cover?
- Hosting and performance: private cloud, global CDN, advanced caching, image optimization, custom PHP and MySQL configuration.
- Security and protection: firewall and malware monitoring, brute force and spam protection with 2FA, automated daily backups, SSL everywhere, weekly security updates.
- WordPress maintenance: core and plugin updates, form setup, reliable authenticated email, content posting help and up to 10 hours of small fixes per month.
- SEO and analytics setup: Rank Math Pro, Search Console, Analytics, SERanking, SERPWatch and SEMRush audits.
- E-commerce: WooCommerce performance and security hardening, custom functionality, bulk import and export.
What results does it actually produce?
The proof lives in the full Time to Deploy case study, but the short version: we made 1818VentureCapital.com load 3x faster (4.2s down to 1.3s, PageSpeed from 48 to 96), blocked 1,700+ cyberattacks on MillionPlus.com with zero data breaches, fixed silently disappearing contact form leads on TheFlyingEngineer.com with authenticated email, and moved PrimeCollege.org.uk's video library to dedicated delivery so the site stopped dragging.
What does it cost and who can join?
Transparent, like everything we publish: £199 to £1,500 per month per site, depending on what your business needs. Time to Deploy is not sold separately; it is exclusive to RB Creative clients, so the way in is a marketing engagement with us. If your website keeps you up at night, talk to us.
