Considering VPS Hosting from Media Temple?
Media Temple, perhaps best known for their shared hosting solutions, offers several Virtual Private Server plans for sites that require more resources or a fully isolated environment.
Like most other web hosts, Media Temple’s VPS plans are available in both managed and unmanaged varieties, but their definition of “Managed” may vary significantly. Media Temple’s Managed VPS offerings are priced in line with Fully Managed VPS plans at other hosts, but the limited number of included services and narrow scope of support may surprise you.
In fact, many of the things you might expect to be included in a “Managed” hosting plan, such as help installing an SSL certificate or plugin, customizing your server or optimizing its software — even the ability to ask questions about setting up your email or FTP client — require an upgrade to higher tier of support. In some cases, that upgrade alone could more than quadruple your monthly bill.
Liquid Web’s Fully Managed VPS solutions include everything you expect from a managed VPS, with hundreds of on-site server administrators, monitoring technicians, and solutions experts available 24/7/365 to answer any question or assist with any issue you may ever have — all at no extra charge.

The World’s Most-Loved Hosting Company
“I’ve been with Liquid Web for a little over a year now and wouldn’t dream of switching to another company. I have 80+ sites hosted and there have been no severe outages that I can speak of. Liquid Web support is the BEST I’VE EVER SEEN. They are quick to respond and go out of their way to make sure all of my questions, concerns or problems are taken care of quickly and efficiently. I look forward to continue to grow with Liquid Web for years to come.”
“I really appreciate you guys … This new client is a local community college. We’d been given access to their Google Analytics and knew that their hosting needs were going to be more than their current host (which they’re not happy with anyway). I recommended Liquid Web and worked with Christa Zisa to get a system configured for their needs. She was fantastic and took the time to write out detailed step by step instructions for the customer to use to set up an account (it’s a VPS, so we couldn’t just send them a quote). I’m insanely happy with Liquid Web for a range of reasons — this sort of attention is just one of them”
