Visits are not a billing event
Pressable Signature 1 allows 30,000 visits a month and the tiers step up from there. We do not count visitors, so a newsletter send or a good news cycle does not move you up a plan.

Looking at Pressable? No visit counter on the wall.
Pressable prices by monthly visits, which means growth and a good week both show up as a plan change. WP Tango does not meter visitors at all, runs LiteSpeed and Redis on dedicated top-tier CPUs, and starts at $8/month on 24-month billing.
In short
WP Tango is a managed WordPress hosting alternative to Pressable. Plans start at $8/month on 24-month billing, with the renewal price matching the signup price for that term, and every plan includes LiteSpeed Enterprise, Redis object caching, unlimited PHP workers, unmetered visitors, staging, SSH and WP-CLI, backups every 4 hours kept 30 days, and free engineer-led migration from Pressable, with US engineers in Phoenix, Arizona.

The Pressable alternative
The reasons people leave Pressable for us.
Most of it comes down to honest pricing, real speed, and not having to pay extra for the basics.
A third of the entry price
Pressable's smallest plan works out to $20.83/month on a $250 annual bill. Ours is $8/month on 24-month billing, with the same rate at renewal.
Redis object caching on every plan
Pressable leans on edge cache and OPcache. Our stack adds LiteSpeed Enterprise and Redis object caching, which is what takes repeated database queries out of admin, cart and member pages.
Backups every 4 hours, kept 30 days
Both of us back up often. Ours is every 4 hours with 30-day retention on every plan, and our engineers do the restore with you rather than handing you a button.
Dedicated hardware, not shared cloud capacity
We run our own AMD Ryzen 9950X and Intel 14900K servers in a carrier-neutral Phoenix facility with fewer sites per machine, so single-threaded PHP work has real headroom.
Managed WordPress hosting
Plans. Everything included.
Same fast platform, same US engineers, no server work. Pick the size that fits; the renewal price is the signup price.
