We would like to show you a description here but the site won’t allow us. Although not as well-known as many of its counterparts, Flywheel is still a reputable managed WordPress hosting company that’s used and loved by many businesses. A huge part of Flywheel’s success has to do the company’s wide range of features designed to perform all website related tasks.
Flywheel Web Hosting Services is managed WordPress hosting built for designers and creative agencies. Build, scale, and manage hundreds of WordPress sites.
Whatever your work environment, Flywheel‘s powerful WordPress platform removes all the hassles of hosting, streamlines your processes, and lets you get back to doing your best work.
Easily create sites & offload them to clients.
With a workflow this smooth, you’ll have tons of time to book new business
Freelancing involves a lot of moving pieces. That’s why they created a simple managed WordPress hosting platform that makes it a breeze to build sites, collaborate with clients, and seamlessly offload the finished product, all from the same place.
Whether you create a brand new site or let us migrate one for you (a free service!), they will start it off on a demo server, so you can start working right away with a zero dollar investment. Once it’s ready to go live, you can either pay on your own or transfer billing and ownership to your client!
If you find yourself installing the same theme or plugins on client sites, make a Blueprint of it! This lets you whip up a brand new site with the settings you love already set up. That’s right – no more installing everything one-by-one. It’s the easiest way to speed up development!
No matter who you’re working with, you can easily add them as a Collaborator to manage the site, edit files, and update the database. They will have their own individual login (for both the Flywheel dashboard and SFTP!), so you can ditch the password spreadsheet and quickly collaborate!
When it’s time to go live, you can easily pass off ownership to your client, allowing them to pay the bill without having to go through you. Plus, you’ll automatically become a Collaborator on the site, meaning you’ll still have full access, minus the cost.
they get it – no matter how many times you review a site design with clients, sometimes changes happen after everything’s live. With their Staging feature, you can safely make site updates in a sandbox environment and push changes to production with a single click. It’ll truly be the easiest update process you and your client have ever experienced!
Scale your services & streamline your team
Streamline your team and add new revenue streams, all from one dashboard!
Running a creative agency involves a lot of moving parts. That’s why they created a one-stop platform that makes it a breeze to manage WordPress hosting, collaborate with your team, and bill clients under your own brilliant brand.
Whether it’s your client, a freelance developer, or someone doing a little user testing, you can easily add them as a Collaborator, giving them access to manage the site, edit files, and update the database (while restricting access to billing). They will have their own individual login (that works for the Flywheel dashboard and SFTP!), so no need to worry about sharing confidential information!
When you set up your agency as an Organization on Flywheel, everyone on your team will have access to client sites – no need to share login credentials! They will have the ability to create new sites, push changes to production, or request billing from clients. Plus with the real-time activity feed, you’ll always be able to know who’s working (or not) on what.
If your agency offers clients a turnkey solution for websites (or if you just happen to love using certain themes and plugins), make a Blueprint out of it! This packages up your theme and plugins as a custom configuration you can use as a starting point for future projects. That’s right – no more installing everything one-by-one. It’s a great way to cut down on development time!

Visit Flywheel |
Flywheel offers an incredibly fast and reliable platform backed by the best tools, interface and support in the industry. They were founded in 2012 and have over 100 employees. They have values that align with Fizzle’s and share our appreciation for fun, simplicity and great design.
We’re not just saying these things to be nice. From their amazing local development tool to staging sites to simple FTP to easy and fast site migrations, Flywheel really is a breath of fresh air in the hosting world. We have worked with dozens of web hosts over the years and we didn’t take this decision lightly.
We’re honored to work with Flywheel and delighted to offer this to you as an additional Fizzle membership benefit. Flywheel really is fantastic.
A fully-featured hosting plan for one small to medium site is included in your Fizzle membership at no additional charge. No overage charges or surprise “gotcha” charges either. Just excellent hosting included in your membership for free.
When we refer to Flywheel as managed WordPress hosting, we’re talking about a number of things that make their hosting stand out from generic shared hosting companies. Because they treat each site on Flywheel individually, they go to great lengths to ensure that each and every one of them is secure, fast, and always up-to-date. And they go out of their way to answer questions or resolve issues when they arise.
Flywheel’s managed WordPress hosting includes server-level caching, which means there’s no need to configure caching yourself for maximum performance. They automatically manage security, blocking hacking and malware without you having to do anything. And if your site does happen to get hacked, they’ll fix it for you, free of charge. Flywheel manages software updates, making sure they don’t cause any problems with your setup. And finally, they back all of this with expert WordPress support.
There’s no catch. By partnering with Flywheel, we’re betting that it will make Fizzle even more attractive to both new and existing members.
We want to make sure Fizzle continues to be an incredible value, and providing web hosting on top of the training, roadmap, coaching and community will save members as much as $30/month vs. comparable premium WordPress hosting plans. We know how frustrating it can be to deal with finding and setting up a reliable host for your WordPress site.
The plan included in your membership comes with the following:
First, there are no overage charges. If your site uses more resources than your plan allows, we will reach out to you prior to moving you to a new plan at the beginning of the next month.
The standard plan that is included in your membership allows for one site to be hosted and up to 50,000 visits per month. This is enough to handle the majority of our members’ site needs for quite some time.
If you have multiple sites or need more resources, additional sites can be added for $20 per month, and will be billed in addition to your Fizzle membership.
Yes! Every site comes with easy and free professional migration. Just provide a few details, and Flywheel will make sure your site gets moved seamlessly. We’ve used this migration process ourselves and can attest that it is truly painless and quick.
Flywheel’s team of WordPress experts goes above and beyond what nearly any other hosting company will help out with. Because they specialize in just WordPress, the support team is able to quickly diagnose any range of problems with your site. They’ve seen it all, from “OMG, I need help, I have a serious problem!,” to “can you recommend a plugin for XYZ,” Flywheel support is here to help.
Unfortunately, our hosting program is only available to WordPress users. In a recent survey, we found that 82% of Fizzle members use WordPress. We chose a managed WordPress host because it will benefit the most members.
Yes, WordPress multisite is supported. You can run a network of sites this way, but the overall plan limits apply to the total visits, disk, bandwidth, etc.
Flywheel, believes strongly in working with “best of breed” providers for everything they do, and they view themselves as a “best of breed WordPress host.” As such, they do not currently host email for clients. They make a deliberate effort to focus on building a great WordPress hosting environment and to be the absolute best at it.
That said, there are some great simple alternatives out there.
First, it’s possible to simply forward email sent to addresses at your domain to your regular email address. Many domain registrars like Namecheap support this. This is what we do with our Fizzle company addresses, for example.
If you want a full-featured email host, Rackspace Email, Gmail for business and Zoho are the three best choices.
Yes! We’re migrating all of our own sites to Flywheel, including fizzle.co. So far, we’ve seen a 42% reduction in page load times for the sites we’ve moved, without doing any kind of optimization. That’s the power of the built-in performance infrastructure provided by Flywheel.
If you decide to leave Fizzle, you can continue using the web hosting at a discounted price. Prices for Fizzle alumni start at $15 per month. The support, resources and quality of hosting are identical whether you’re a Fizzle member or alumni.
Alternatively, you can also request to have your account transferred over entirely to Flywheel onto one of their standard plans. They have plans ranging from $15 to $75 per site per month, and transferring is seamless.
