LifterLMS hosting for courses behind a paywall.
Access checks, drip schedules and membership gates run on every lesson view, and none of it can be cached. Fast cores and Redis keep gated content quick for the students paying for it.

In short
WP Tango LifterLMS hosting is managed WordPress hosting tuned for paid, gated course content. Membership and enrolment checks run on every lesson view, so we put high-frequency processors, Redis object caching and NVMe storage on that path. Backups run every 4 hours with up to 30-day retention, and our engineers migrate and test your site on staging, including checkout and webhooks, before any DNS change.
Built for speed before the cache.
Caching is a multiplier, not a substitute. The server underneath still determines how quickly WordPress handles everything dynamic.
Fast WordPress processing
5+GHz vCPU for the work caching cannot hide
WordPress still uses PHP for admin screens, searches, checkouts, logins and background jobs. High-frequency AMD Ryzen processors that boost over 5 GHz keep that work moving quickly.
- 5+GHz high-frequency vCPU
- Fewer sites competing for each server
- Built for WordPress single-thread performance
Everything a LifterLMS site needs, no upsell.
Course memberships are logged-in from end to end. That is exactly the traffic we tune for.
Access checks that stay cheap
Every gated lesson asks who the student is and what they have bought. Redis object caching keeps those membership and enrolment lookups in memory instead of hitting the database repeatedly.
Enrolment and billing paths tested
Checkout, recurring payments and webhook callbacks are verified on staging before we move DNS, so nobody signs up into a broken enrolment.
LiteSpeed Enterprise caching
Public pages are served from cache in milliseconds, while logged-in, cart and account requests skip it so nobody sees stale content.
Redis object cache included
Repeated database queries stay in memory instead of hitting disk, which is what keeps plugin-heavy, logged-in pages quick.
NVMe and fast single-core CPUs
High-frequency AMD Ryzen cores that boost over 5 GHz, with enterprise NVMe storage and ECC memory. Single-core speed is what dynamic WordPress actually feels.
Backups every 4 hours
Off-server backups every 4 hours with up to 30-day retention and one-click restore. Hourly snapshots are an optional add-on: $10/month, $8/month on 12 months.
Power sized around students and content
Every plan includes backups every 4 hours with up to 30-day retention, free SSL, staging, free migration and 24/7 US-based support. Hourly snapshots are an optional add-on: $10/month, $8/month on 12 months.

Built for selling and teaching in the same place.
Launch weeks, drip schedules and growing student records.
A launch week that does not fall over
During a launch you get anonymous sales-page traffic and a rush of checkouts at the same time. Sales pages come from LiteSpeed cache while checkout and enrolment get dedicated CPU and Redis.
- Cached sales pages, uncached checkout
- Dedicated CPU for enrolment requests
- Move up a size for launch weekSame day
Launch week
Why LifterLMS sites move here.
Paid courses are dynamic from the first click, so cached benchmarks miss the point.
We tune the requests your paying students make
Logged-in lessons, gated downloads and recurring billing all bypass page cache. High-frequency cores, Redis object caching and NVMe storage are what keep them quick.
- High-frequency AMD Ryzen cores
- Object Cache Pro with Redis included
- Unmetered visitors, no bandwidth invoices
Dynamic path
Nobody else can slow you down
Every site runs in its own isolated environment with its own CPU and memory and no shared filesystem. Another customer's traffic spike or runaway plugin cannot reach your course site.
- Per-site isolation, no shared filesystem
- Web application firewall and malware scanning included
- Free SSL on every domain, renewed automatically
Isolation
We migrate it and test it before DNS moves
Our engineers copy the site, run it on staging, check the pages and flows that matter, then cut DNS over when you approve. Your old host stays live the whole time, and there is no charge.
- Tested on staging before any DNS change
- Usually finished within 24 hours
- 24/7 US-based engineers, median first reply under 5 minutes
Migration
What people say after moving
Written by the people running stores, client sites and memberships on WP Tango.
"Really nice experience so far. They have been very helpful with the onboarding process and my website is performing great since the switch over. Definitely a big improvement speed wise over my old web host with GoDaddy."
"Migrated my website over from GoDaddy and it's been night and day difference. So much more responsive and everything is much snappier. Also had no downtime since the transition."
"Having WP Tango manage and maintain my WordPress site has alleviated a lot of time and stress off my hands. Any questions are dealt with super fast, and the quality of the product and service is well worth the money."
"Everyone I've spoken with at WP Tango has been super helpful, because I know absolutely nothing about hosting or managing my website. One day it was working, the next day it was slow and broken. It's all been fine since migrating and I'm very grateful!"
"Peter understood, he didn't rush through it, but made sure each and every one of my concerns and worries were addressed and solved. The result was terrific and the customer service was the most outstanding thing."
"I initially had issues with my WooCommerce store not sending emails and also running extremely slowly. Peter migrated everything over to their hosting, then got my emails working with an SMTP service. Everything has been fantastic!"
"I had months of issues with my website going down, slowness and malware. I migrated everything over to WP Tango and everything has been smooth ever since, and my Google PageSpeed score is much better. Highly recommended!"
"I've tried a few web hosts, and then I found Peter who helped identify some issues with my performance and LearnDash setup. I've had a much better experience since switching over."
"If you are looking for reliable hosting providers WP Tango are the best. They migrated all my sites, free of charge. Now I get no issues and can handle 300,000+ visits per day."
