Hello guys, Here is a video that explains it best on what wordpress requires to run at optimal performance - it seems the wordpress.org website does not even explain this clearly enough on their own requirements page, so I took the liberty of posting this. [video=youtube;oPAY1ejSO3o]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPAY1ejSO3o[/video] I had a question tho - she says that its generally what you need for wordpress, but does it apply for the newest wordpress release? I think its the 3.0 version, correct me if im wrong tho.
The latest version is 3.4.2. I don't have any experience with Windows servers but I think that as long they support PHP & MySQL they are just fine for hosting WP.
