Signup
This section will walk you through the service signup process from the Managed WordPress services page.
The first step will be to select a service. On the Managed WordPress services page, you will be able to select from four options. At the top of the page, you can switch between 'Monthly Pricing' and 'Annual Pricing.' Once you have a plan, click 'Get This.'
Now on the purchasing page, you will have six categories to fill out:
Select Product - Make sure the plan you want is selected.
WordPress Installs - How many additional websites, past the initial amount, do you intend to add to the service? Every additional site will be $9.95 a month.
Choose payment method - Select either card or PayPal to pay
Client Information - Fill out your information so we may verify the account belongs to you later. (If you already have an account, click Already registered).
Notes - Feel free to leave any additional information regarding your order.
Terms of Service - Please read through then click the checkbox to agree.
Once you've entered all the information, verify 'Change billing cycle' to ensure it's correct, as it defaults to monthly. If everything looks good, click 'Order.' On the next page, you'll be prompted to complete the payment for the service.
