WordPress-specific stacks are isolated: managed tiers get the same twenty-plugin baseline, WooCommerce sample catalog, and cron-heavy tasks where relevant. Caching is tuned per host documentation, never handicapping one brand with aggressive optimisations denied to another. Staging workflows, PHP version cadence, and how cleanly core updates land all get noted. Support tests include PHP fatal reproductions and backup restore drills because those separate polished marketing from day-two operations.
