Web Hosting Tips For Wordpress

By Lawrance Sparky


The great thing about Wordpress is the ease by which it allows people to set up their own blog. Another advantage of Wordpress is that it is open source. A lot of people will choose to use Wordpress.com in order to host their website for free or they will arrange their own web hosting and then just use the enhanced capabilities of Wordpress.org.

In this article we will be offering a few web hosting tips for anyone who is thinking about using this platform for their blog.

When it comes to free web hosting, Wordpress.com is a great option. You do get a superb service although there are a number of disadvantages with it. The biggest issue with Wordpress.com is the fact that you cannot place any paid adverts on your website. This is the only area where Wordpress.com does less than Blogger. Another negative is that while there are a lot of available themes for Wordpress.com it is quite limited when compared to Wordpress.org.

Many people will start off using Wordpress.com but then choose to switch to Wordpress.org afterwards. The fact that you don't have to pay for web hosting while your website grows is a great idea. And as soon as your site becomes very popular, you can then choose to pay for hosting.

If you do intend to use Wordpress.com it is highly recommended that you buy your own domain name. Using the domain name provided by Wordpress.com will give your website a less professional appearance. And it will be more awkward to make a move to paid web hosting if you do not have your own domain name. Wordpress.com will not allow you to take their domain name with you should you decide to move.

Most web hosting providers these days, do not have any problem with Wordpress.org websites. For most of them, it is actually very easy to set up.
