Kudos Editorial Staff ! Such a thorough insight ! i am speechless. i am going to read this again and again till everything sinks in. Happy 11th Birth Day. wpbeginner.com
I’ve pretty much learned everything I know about WordPress from you, and you’ve encouraged a new love for website building. I thank you and your team for all of your expertise, passion, & absolutely brilliant information!
I’ve been using Siteground for a number of years now and I love their service. Admittedly I find support is excellent for minor issues but not so great for complicated ones… but compared to other hosting companies the support is stellar.
This post has helped over the years to decide which hosting provider I should use for my websites.
Thank you for always keeping it updated for me to also take a new decision and even take a quiz.
I like the way, you guys test any product before recommending to the users. Because most of the affiliate marketers just referring the products for earning purposes only, no matter how the product is…
WP beginner helps me to find detail about WordPress hosting and I am the user of Bluehost. Now, I thinking about siteground hosting. Thanks for the comparison.
Wow, incredibly detailed post. I wish I would have seen this before choosing hosting and domain name service, but I chose Bluehost for my site so I’m happy, kind of. I used their new service where WP is integrated into the hosting plan called WordPress Pro hosting and it has had quite a few problems thus far and I am having a hard time handling all of the memory Bluehost and WP take up while modifying my site on my older laptop. I didn’t realize how much memory WP installation could take up and I’m praying I can start to get some followers soo after I put out some new content. Happy B-day WPbeginner and congrats Syed on launching such a successful startup with many more years to come !!!
I’ve been using Hostgator for years. Their reseller plan is great for hosting lots of sites cheaply and reliably. If any of your sites gets too big, you may need to move to a different host as I did for one of my sites – I moved to InMotionHosting.com on a VPS plan.
Really informative article, keep them coming!
So far I’ve used DreamHost, SiteGround and Bluehost, overall I’ll say SiteGround was my best option, considering customer support and just friction-less experience I had and it still is my go-to platform for any high-profile site I setup. Kudos to them also!
Choosing a hosting is always a pain and if you got it wrong then entire your blogging can break down. Without researching well you must not go for any hosting. The above guide one of the best comparison guide I have ever read. The solution I was looking for, I got it here.
I like using WPengine. A bit more pricey but you get a fast cacheing system and it works really nice with their local server software, called… local lol
