Account control.
THE ANSWER
You, with your own account.
WHY
You can grant access to a developer.
You cannot easily take control of an account in their name.
WHAT GOES WRONG
Hosting bought by a developer, in their account, paid through them.
The relationship ends and your site is on infrastructure you cannot reach.
WHAT ELSE GOES WRONG
The developer stops paying The developer holds many clients on one account You cannot see what you are paying for
THE SHARED ACCOUNT PROBLEM
Several clients in one hosting account means one compromise affects all of them.
And you cannot be separated easily.
WHAT TO DO
Buy your own hosting Give the developer an account with appropriate access Pay for it yourself
WHAT THAT COSTS
Nothing extra, usually. Frequently less than a developer's markup.
WHAT IT GIVES YOU
Control, visibility, and the ability to change developer without changing everything.
WHAT TO ASK US
We can set up an account in your name with developer access.
