Pressable operates as a specialized managed WordPress hosting provider, catering to a diverse clientele that includes agencies, freelancers, e-commerce businesses, and developers. The company was established in 2010 in San Antonio, Texas, by Vid Luther and was initially known as ZippyKid before rebranding in 2013. The founding mission was to simplify WordPress site management, allowing creators and business owners to focus on their core activities rather than technical hosting issues.
The business generates revenue through tiered subscription plans for its hosting services. These services are built on the same global data network as WordPress.com, ensuring high availability and performance. Key features bundled into their plans include unlimited bandwidth, free site migrations, SSL certificates, a global content delivery network (CDN), and robust security against malware and DDoS attacks. A significant milestone in the company's history was its acquisition by Automattic, the parent company of WordPress.com and WooCommerce, in March 2016. Automattic, which had previously been a primary investor, purchased a majority stake from the founder, solidifying Pressable's position within the WordPress ecosystem. Following the acquisition, Pressable's infrastructure was re-architected to further optimize speed, security, and uptime, which the company guarantees at 99.999%.
Pressable's platform is designed to enhance productivity for developers and profitability for businesses by offering a stable, scalable, and secure environment. Clients interact with an intuitive dashboard designed for managing multiple websites efficiently and have access to 24/7 support from WordPress experts. The service's value proposition centers on delivering enterprise-grade hosting infrastructure with features like network redundancy, automatic failover, and proactive maintenance, tailored specifically for the WordPress platform.
