Performance profiling

At no additional cost

Sail is free. You're only paying your cloud provider resources usage, from as low as $5 per month.


Launch a WordPress server in minutes.

Install Sail CLI on Linux, macOS or Windows, set your DigitalOcean API token and e-mail address, launch your WordPress server:

curl -sSLf https://sailed.io/install.sh | bash

sail config provider-token YOUR_API_TOKEN
sail config email ADMIN_EMAIL
sail init

Not a CLI fan? No worries, we've got an easy to use web-based management UI too.

Easily add domains and SSL certificates.

Sail will request and install a free SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt. Changing your primary domain in WordPress has never been easier:

sail domain add example.org
sail domain make-https example.org
sail domain make-primary example.org

Quick and efficient full site backups.

Create and restore full site and database backups with simple commands:

sail backup create
sail backup restore path/to/archive.tar.gz

Daily remote backups with 60-day retention available with a premium subscription.

The best of both worlds.

With over 60 features and commands, Sail combines the power and simplicity of managed WordPress hosting platforms, with the freedom and flexibility of self-hosted WordPress.
