Real infrastructure. Real monitoring. Real people who fix problems before you notice them. Marathon is live and running client sites today — we're opening the doors a few at a time.
Until general availability — January 1, 2027
Marathon is in closed beta: real clients, real sites, real traffic. We're taking on new customers by invitation while we grow, and that's on purpose.
The platform is built and running. Client sites are live on it right now, with monitoring, nightly backups, and staging working exactly as described below.
No self-serve signup, no queue. A human migrates your site, tunes it, and tests it. That's a great way to launch a website and a slow way to scale a company — so we cap how many we take each month.
The fastest way to ruin managed hosting is to sell more of it than you can look after. We'd rather grow slower and stay the host you can actually get hold of at 2am.
Premium WordPress hosting with proactive monitoring and real support — all for one simple price. Everything here is live in production, not a roadmap.
Global CDN, Redis caching, and optimized servers deliver pages in under 200ms. Your visitors will notice the difference.
We watch your actual website 24/7, not just server uptime. Issues get fixed before you even know they existed.
Enterprise firewall blocks threats at the server level. Daily plugin updates with validation. No security plugins needed.
Test changes safely with instant staging environments. Daily automated backups. One-click rollback if needed.
SSH/SFTP access, WP-CLI, git, composer, and npm. All the command-line tools developers love.
No phone trees. No bots. When you need help, you talk to an engineer who can actually fix things.
If you tried to piece together Marathon-level hosting on your own.
Dedicated server ($120) + CDN ($30) + control panel ($60) + monitoring tools ($20) + security tools ($20) + backup storage ($20) + your time
Everything included. Managed by real engineers. You focus on your business, not server configuration.
One hour of downtime costs the average business $5,600. One serious security breach? Even worse. Prevention is cheaper.
But here's what the $270/mo DIY option doesn't include: Building a custom NGINX firewall. Writing Lua security rules. Configuring Redis caching correctly. Knowing how to optimize WordPress at the server level. Staying current on security vulnerabilities. That's years of engineering knowledge you'd need to acquire or hire. Marathon gives you all of that for $100/mo.
We're building something different. WordPress hosting with proactive monitoring, real infrastructure, and engineers who actually care. No tiers. No games. Just $100/month for everything you need.
Closed beta clients get the same price when we open to everyone — and a lot more of our attention in the meantime. Tell us about your site and we'll tell you honestly whether we have room for it.
