For years, I’ve been designing and building fast, beautiful websites for clients — but there was one piece of the puzzle that always felt out of my control: hosting. Performance and reliability can make or break a website, and even the best design can fall flat if the foundation isn’t solid.
That’s why I built Host with Bernie — a fully managed WordPress hosting platform designed to give my clients the same high standards I expect from every site I create. It’s fast, secure, and personally managed by me to make sure everything just works.
Why I Built It
Too many small businesses struggle with confusing hosting plans, poor support, and slow websites. I wanted to change that. Host with Bernie combines premium performance (backed by Cloudflare CDN and advanced caching) with the kind of personal service you only get from someone who actually understands your website inside and out.
Every hosting plan includes the essentials:
- Daily backups and security monitoring
- Performance optimization and caching
- Free SSL and Cloudflare integration
- Monthly maintenance updates
In other words — you focus on your business, and I handle the tech.
The Design and Build
The new hosting site was built using Kadence Pro and Elementor Pro for speed and flexibility. I kept the design clean, modern, and conversion-focused, with a clear visual hierarchy and smooth user experience.
The site also integrates Stripe for easy, secure billing — removing all friction from signup to setup.
Performance Results
Like everything I build, this one had to perform flawlessly. After launch, the numbers spoke for themselves:
- GTmetrix: 97% Performance / 94% Structure
- PageSpeed Insights:
- Mobile: 90 Performance / 100 Accessibility / 100 Best Practices / 100 SEO
- Desktop: 100 across the board
- Largest Contentful Paint: 1.1 seconds
- Total Blocking Time: 0 ms
These are the kind of numbers I aim for on every project — and proof that thoughtful design and performance engineering go hand in hand.
A Natural Extension of My Work
Host with Bernie isn’t just another hosting service — it’s a natural extension of how I work. Every site I build now has a home where it can thrive, supported by the same level of care that went into creating it.
