1. Start with the site you actually need to protect
Monmouth is a municipality in Polk County, Oregon. The 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year estimate records 11,428 residents, with a margin of error of 22. That population figure describes the city; it does not establish search demand, legal need, leads or revenue. For hosting, its value is geographic scope: your review should identify which pages, forms and service areas are intended for Monmouth and which extend beyond it. Bosseo states that Dedicated Hosting is for law firms and that sites run on its own dedicated servers rather than shared hosting. The relevant comparison is therefore your current host’s actual architecture, not a generic assumption about the Monmouth market.
Recommended approach
Bring an inventory of the public website, intake forms, domain and DNS records, email-related records, analytics or measurement tools, and any connected services to the consultation. Ask which items would move, which would remain with another provider, and how each would be tested.
