I am planing to have my own personal blog and would prefer to go for WordPress and wondering which hosting company would be reasonably good I donot want to end up paying $$$. so 1 hosting with unlimited MySql space and good support of WordPress
Just to get a word press, you don't have to pay $$$ if you have low traffic, than any low plan should work good for you, and installing wordpress is just few clicks, if you are very new or does not have much of knowledge about sites, than I would suggest go for a host which can give you good support, instead of going big companies where you have to wait for ticket response
Exactly. WordPress doesn't require too many resources, it will even work on a small hosting plan. We from InfinitumHost host various WordPress blogs on our shared hosting plans, here is a blog from a friend of mine who is hosted with us: http://hypotheekdorp.nl Ofcourse you can also check out other hosting companies, all small plans will do fine for a simple blog
I actually didn't want to promote the host, I was just suggesting it as a possible option -- I actually got a user thanking me for posting the URL which now signed up. I remember you couldn't post offers from your own host in threads which I didn't, I also added that last sentence to tell them there are other hosts available too that they can use. I don't consider that as being wrong, as I've seen many other users suggesting HostGator in threads too, that doesn't seem wrong AFAIK. Anyways, thanks for pointing it out.
I assume that there is the abundance of hosts that can be good for running wordpress web sites - try to do a comparison research.
I would recommend Bluehost in this particular case. If you want some cheaper then take a look at local hosting providers in DP.
You may consider lunarpages or bluehost as a good choices for Wordpress hosting. You may consider checking out at http://www.mybestratedwebhosting.com/best-web-hosting/top-5-wordpress-hosts.html .
I believe that any web hosting provider will be able to meet your demands - compare all possible options and choose the best one.
Well not all as I tried few in past and had a very bad support i had a blog for about 9 month and then it went dead due to hosting company did some upgrade and their support never replied back.
Just do not chose wordpress hosting because it will be cheap only at the moment of registration, later you will have to pay extra for anything that you will have to do extra to basic options! Unfortunately, my friend recently did paid for their hosting and now he is very disappointed for this choice! Of course, the main question is how much money do you want to spend on hosting, if you are ready to pay for a quality then I advice you to choose Hostgator, if you are ready to try something from cheap hosting then it is even not so easy to advice you something. I also tried myhosting services, at the beginning I did not get how everything work with them, but now it seems OK, that probably is the best what I could get for that money that I spent, I like their support service, but the main minus for them is that they do not have c-panel. P.S. I see that I came a little too late with my advices, but still I will not delete my post, maybe someone can use it! Glad that you made your choice already!
