The VIP program offers hundreds of plugins that can easily be integrated into enterprise websites. The platform as a service (PaaS) architecture allows developers to extend WordPress and build any custom feature they desire.

At Mode Effect, one our our website development specialities is creating WordPress websites that are built for the WordPress VIP platform and hosted on it. Through our relationship with WordPress VIP, we have learned how to design and develop sites to run on VIP and worked hand-in-hand with the WordPress VIP team on the code review process, a critical component to creating a high-performing website. Most recently, we created jesusdailybible.com — a popular, high-traffic blog — built to meet VIP specifications.

Secure Hosting with WordPress VIP

Enterprise websites suffer greatly when they go down, as users will quickly abandon their loyalty to the site. WordPress’ VIP solution is designed specifically for the needs of high traffic, high profile websites who need and demand secure hosting and uptime. WordPress VIP’s secure codebase ensures impressive uptime – with 100% uptime most months of the year.

The VIP service can typically serve more than a hundred million page views in one day without any challenges. WordPress VIP hosting ensures your site is safe and secure. Sites are monitored 24/7 and elastic scaling allows customer to scale their websites on WordPress’ +2k server grid with unlimited traffic, bandwidth and storage. WordPress runs the technology stack from servers, firewalls, load balancers, hourly backups and WordPress upgrades as part of the VIP program. This takes a tremendous burden off of internal teams to manage a complex hosting technology stack.  

Support with WordPress VIP

WordPress offers its VIP clients dedicated 24/7 support from a team of leading WordPress developers. With a robust developer community, both building the core platform and the plugins, there is a large pool of talent available to customers for launching new site features.

Code review on nearly every line of code is part of the service as well and full theme code review is typically within 10-15 business days. This process ensures optimal performance, speed and security for each and every website on the VIP hosting. All plugins and themes must be fully GPL compatible or custom coded as well, again to maintain the integrity, security and speed. Developer training is also available as part of the VIP solution.
