15+ Best WordPress Hosting Providers

Having a website is essential and launching a modern site can be difficult. One of the biggest problems is that there are thousands of web hosting companies on the Internet and most of their services are weak.

It is important to find a good web hosting company, so in this article we will cover 15 of the best WordPress hosting providers. The reason why we are going to inspect only WordPress related services is that we strongly believe it is one of the best content management software of last decade. So, let’s start it.

What is WordPress?

When initially WordPress was created, it was built as a blogging software. Over the year has advanced and has become one of the most popular content management system that is open source and available for free. Today it is used by over 70 million websites. Many of the most popular websites like eBay, Fortune, Time Inc, Google Ventures and others use WordPress on their website or as their blogging platform.

WordPress is a free content management system (CMS), which was introduced in 2003. Since then, many releases were published, but the open source system still remained free. It is one of the most used content management systems in the world, downloaded more than 60 million times so far.

The CMS can be installed with a little database knowledge and with no previous coding experience. During the installation process you just need to enter the hostname, the database name, the username and its password, all other tasks are performed by the software itself.

The biggest strength of the software is to have themes and plugins. Themes are templates that can totally modify the site’s look and purpose. For example, there are themes that can turn the original WordPress site into eCommerce site, forum, photo blog, video blog, billboard, company site or anything else. There are tens of thousands of WordPress themes on the Internet, some of them free, some of them paid. A whole independent industry was built on developing WordPress themes and you can find many WordPress developers who can build up your website.

Plugins are code pieces that can add extra features to the site and can be installed without having any programming experience. There are plugins that can cache the website, improve the SEO performance, add social media share buttons, and add guestbook or anything else. Literally there are no tasks that could not be done with a plugin; you just need a WordPress programmer to develop it. Similarly to themes, WordPress plugins are available on the Internet both for free and paid as well.

Good news is that many of the WordPress hosting companies offer one-click solution for WordPress installing, so you don’t need to have any database or programming knowledge. By using such services, you just need to select for which domain name you want to add the new CMS and then click on the install button. All other tasks will be handled by the 1-click installer itself.

An important extra of the hosting companies’ WordPress hosting is the automatic update. This means that upon installing, you can choose that you want automatic updates performed on your website. By choosing it, you won’t need to worry about your site being outdated; all future updates will be applied by the software itself. This is an important service, since WordPress releases updates on regular basis, even few times a month, so a WordPress site quickly can be outdated without them.

There are many spam robots on the Internet, which surf on the net and try to hack WordPress related sites. The outdated websites can be easier to hack by malicious software than the up to date ones. This is the key reason why having automatic updates (or manually updated sites) is vital.

By summarizing the above-mentioned facts, you can already know that WordPress is suitable for everyone; even big companies use the software without problems, while starter business owners also can have benefit of this CMS.

Pros and Cons of Cheap WordPress Hosting

Cheap WordPress hosting gained big popularity among the website owners, because of its low price. We don’t need to mention why cost-effectiveness is important, and many people use this kind of WordPress hosting.

Obviously, there are two sides of the same coin, thus cheap hosting also has a bright and dark side too. To help you in choosing the right service, let’s check what are the pros and cons of cheap WordPress hosting:

Pros

• ultra cost-effective solution to have a website
• server administration knowledge is not needed
• literally thousands of hosting services
• continuous working, no hardware, no network and no utility problems

Cons

• some database and FTP knowledge is needed for installation
• slower customer service support, if it is even offered
• most of companies are unreliable
• no real extra services, like automatic updates, spam protection, etc.
• usually the server resources are not enough for bigger sites with more visitors

So, cheap WordPress is ideal if you have at least basic server or programming knowledge to install and maintain WordPress and you are looking for a super cheap solution to launch your site. If you just test the world of websites, or your company has just been started, you can quickly have a website online.

You should also understand that you will have some to-dos on regular basis, like making backups, applying WordPress updates and handling the possible technical problems. But if you accept these side effects, you can enjoy your site for a really low rate.

How to Choose a Cheap WordPress Host?

There are many ways to find a cheap WordPress host:

Paid ads

Some of the companies use paid campaigns to reach customers, like posting ads at the top of Google search results or on Facebook pages. By accepting the fact, that ads cost money and the companies are still alive, we can say that their marketing method is successful. But just because they catch users by spending money on advertising, their prices can be higher, or they can spare some cost on having low quality support. Both aren’t ideal for the customers.

PR articles

These articles are a special type of advertisements, since hosting companies pay money to magazines or other websites with high amount of readers to gain customers. This marketing method may need even more money than PPC ads, so these hosting providers should also spare some money on their services.

Word-of-mouth recommendations

This is the possible best source of having a good hosting provider, since if one of your friends or relatives recommends you a good host, you won’t be tricked. Unfortunately, these kinds of recommendations are still rare.

Reviews on professional review sites

Just like us, there are review sites on the Internet, written by IT professionals or Internet enthusiasts, who have years of experience in the field and are able to review the services. These sites are alive because they get affiliate money from recommended sites. There are many good companies on the Internet, and the reviewers also don’t want to destroy their reputation by forwarding the readers to bad places. So, you can rely on these reviews for sure.

What to Expect From a WordPress Host?

If you want to exclusively use WordPress for all your websites, I would recommend using a web hosting provider that offer optimized web hosting. There are many hosting providers who offer the possibility to install the software to their servers, however they do not pay much attention to create the ideal server environment that WordPress requires for fast and smooth performance.

The ideal hosting company for WordPress has the following features:

• offer optimized hosting plan, that is dedicated to WordPress users
• offer one click WordPress installation to customers website
• their team is trained to answer questions and solve issues related to the CMS
• offer online tutorials that help customers get started with their WordPress site
• offer tools that helps users to build their website easier with WP
