When you’re looking for a hosting plan that will play nice with WordPress, it’s easy to get overwhelmed with a deluge of technical details, features and packages on offer. You should narrow down your choices to shared plans (for smaller sites), VPS (medium-size) and VDS (large-size). After you’ve done that, you can proceeds to compare the specific WP-optimized offers from providers.

What to look into when comparing WP-specific offers

First, you should remember that you’ll need to interact with the host’s support team throughout your journey to make it big with your WordPress site. So, it’s paramount to go off with the provider whose employees are diligent, tactful and professional in their communications.

Second, if you’re just starting out, you should pick a managed plan. Even though WordPress is easy, there’s a still a large number of server-side questions that you wouldn’t want to deal with at the start of your career here.

Third, make sure that the provider has a nice number of sublevels in a segment you’ve picked. This will enable a smooth upgrading process as your site scales.
