About AxonWP

We fix WordPress for people who'd rather run a business.

AxonWP started with a simple observation: hosting, development and maintenance were sold as three products but were really one job. We built a company that does that one job properly.

Our story

Founded by engineers who were tired of tickets.

Between us we'd spent a decade inside WordPress agencies and hosting companies. We watched the same failure play out: the host blames the theme, the agency blames the host, and the business owner is left holding a slow, broken website.

So we built AxonWP on one rule — accountability. The team that hosts your site is the team that builds it and the team that keeps it running. One throat to choke, one team to thank.

What we believe

Five values we build by.

01

Own the outcome

We don't hand off at the boundary between host and developer. We are the boundary — and we're accountable for the whole result.

02

Speed is a feature

Fast sites convert, rank and survive. We treat every millisecond as something we control, and we measure it on every site.

03

Honest reporting

Good news and bad, delivered the same way: plainly, with numbers. No marketing-fluff uptime, no hidden renewals.

04

Engineers first

Support is a skill, not a tier. The people answering your tickets are the same people who run your stack.

05

Earn it daily

No contracts, no lock-in. We keep clients by being worth keeping — that's a bar we'd rather clear than have waived.

06

Build it open

We give back to the WordPress ecosystem — patches, plugins and playbooks, freely shared.

Timeline

The short version of a long grind.

2019

Two engineers, one manifesto

AxonWP launched as a two-person migration shop with a promise: fix WordPress hosting properly, or don't do it at all.

2021

Development joins hosting

We started building the sites we hosted. Clients stopped juggling three vendors, and our first care plans appeared.

2023

500 sites under management

Crossed 500 managed sites, added a 24/7 support rotation and a dedicated WooCommerce team for peak-season stores.

Today

A team of 14, still answering tickets

Engineers, designers and support specialists — remote-first, worldwide. Every one of us has done the work we sell.

The team

The humans behind the uptime.
