WordPress – Millions of Users

When it comes to online publishing systems known as “Blogs” then WordPress surely is the dominant producer. They started out in 2003 and the software has since then been downloaded millions of times. In the beginning was it a tool that allowed for quick installation as well as easy management. Since then it has developed and now you can for example add various extra features, apply different themes as well as edit the Css. WordPress is an open source system and this fact has led to a strong community of developers contributing in its every update. Even though it might first and foremost be connected with blogs - WordPress is also widely used by online businesses and many regular websites.

What’s there to KnowTe about WordPress Hosting?

It’s actually not that complicated – WordPress Hosting is the possibility for you to allow a web host to install WordPress files. If you don’t get WordPress hosting it will be much more complicated and we thought that it might be a good idea to have a look at some of the benefits with this form of hosting and WordPress in general.

Benefits

Some of the plugins for WordPress need to be updated from time to time and with WordPress version 2.7 they can be automatically updated with just one click. No FTP skills will be required.
In using WordPress you get to choose (with mod_rewrite or lighttpd) the way your links will be shown – adding to the usability of your site.
Handling spam won’t be a problem as Akismet will be preinstalled on WordPress.
The blog will get automatic backups - making it very safe.
WordPress is the easiest way of blogging. Knowledge on HTML, MySQL, PHP and CSS won’t be required. Why not also use the live preview to check out how your post will look in advance? It can’t get any easier than this.

Doing the installation yourself is not rocket science but should something happen then you will have to be somewhat of a technical genius to solve it all. And it will take you longer time as well since you for example have to download any WordPress files and then unzip them as well as creating a database. Why not just kick back and relax instead and leave any technical issues to the pros? That’s at least what you will be able to do with WordPress hosting.

Summary

WordPress has one big advantage that makes it one cut above the rest. It’s not a guarantee of the best performance, the highest bandwidth, the most disk space or any of those commonly known selling points. Than one thing is the fact that you’ll be able to set up your site in no time at all. Look at it as an “all inclusive” deal where you are taken care of the best way possible. Of course, you will also get a top performing hosting with all the bandwidth and disk space that you will require. But that’s perhaps needless to mention.
