Are you looking for WordPress blog hosting services?<\/strong><\/p>\n

These are the very few web hosting services that I recommend to host your WordPress blog…<\/p>\n

You don't have to filter through 100 different hosts or<\/em> features & benefits lists here. I only recommend a few different blog hosting services, based both on what WordPress itself recommends (the top 3 that I've listed), and what I personally recommend based on my experience with hosting services over the past 20+ years!<\/p>\n

They include:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. BlueHost<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. Dreamhost<\/a><\/li>\n
  3. SiteGround<\/a><\/li>\n
  4. HostGator<\/a><\/li>\n
  5. WP Engine<\/a><\/li>\n
  6. Website Managers<\/a><\/li>\n
  7. SiteBuildit!<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If just want to register a domain name at this time, visit GoDaddy<\/a>. BUT, and that's a BIG BUT… if you intend to get hosting for that domain, then keep reading, because many hosting services offer a free domain name for the first year.<\/p>\n

    <\/a>WP Engine<\/h4>\n

    1. WP Engine<\/h2>\n

    WP Engine<\/a> provides managed WordPress hosting for mission-critical sites around the world. Amazing support, enterprise-class, & optimized for WordPress. They are associated with StudioPress (Genesis)<\/a>, the themes that I personally use. If you sign up for their hosting, you get access to all of the StudioPress themes for free.<\/p>\n

    <\/a><\/h4>\n

    2. BlueHost.com<\/h2>\n

    BlueHost<\/a> powers 2+ million websites, offering the ultimate WordPress platform. Tuned for WordPress, we offer WordPress-centric dashboards and tools along with 1-click installation, a FREE domain name, email, FTP, and more. Easily scalable and backed by legendary 24\/7 support by in-house WordPress experts.<\/p>\n

    Moreover, BlueHost allows you to host unlimited domains<\/strong><\/em> on 1 account and up to 20 subdomains (ie. subdomain.mydomain.com) if you wanted to go really crazy building sites or blogs for every subject under the sun!<\/p>\n

    <\/a><\/h4>\n

    3. SiteGround<\/h2>\n

    SiteGround<\/a> has tools that make managing WordPress sites easy: one-click install, managed updates, WP-Cli, WordPress staging and git integration. We have a very fast support team with advanced WordPress expertise available 24\/7. We provide latest speed technologies that make WordPress load faster: NGINX-based caching, SSD-drives, PHP 7, CDN, HTTP\/2. We proactively protect the WordPress sites from hacks.<\/p>\n

    <\/a><\/h4>\n

    4. Dreamhost<\/h2>\n

    DreamHost<\/a> has been committed to WordPress and its community for over 10 years. Our hosting platforms are optimized for WordPress and our team actively contributes to the WordPress community. At DreamHost, you take total control of your server or let our team of experts handle everything for you. DreamHost offers choice, performance and value for new users and experts alike.<\/p>\n

    <\/a><\/h4>\n

    5. Hostgator<\/h2>\n

    HostGator<\/a> has a 99.9% uptime guarantee, unmetered bandwidth, and FREE SSL.<\/p>\n

    <\/a>Website Managers<\/h4>\n

    6. Website Managers<\/h2>\n

    Website Managers<\/a> is the service that I use myself. It's a small company, but their service (response times to questions) is incomparable. I love the fact that I can open a ticket and Jim Nelson, the owner, will phone me to let me know what the problem is or to hasten its resolution. Service doesn't get any better than that!!!<\/p>\n

    <\/a><\/p>\n

    7. Site Build iT!<\/h2>\n

    \"Site<\/a>Ken Evoy's Site Build iT!<\/strong> is much MORE than just a web hosting service.<\/p>\n

    It's an all-in-one website solution for those who want to be able to access all their site-building tools in one place, i.e. site building, market research, content building, ad-selling, ppc buying etc.<\/p>\n

    Among its many benefits and features you'll find domain registration, search engine optimization, autoresponder, forms, templates<\/strong>, and just too many more features to list here. Learn more:<\/p>\n

    Read my Site Build iT! Review<\/a> or visit the SiteBuildit! Site<\/a>.<\/p>\n
