WordPress powers roughly 20% of all websites that exist on the internet. In response to the rapid rise of WordPress websites hosting company’s have started offering WordPress specific hosting packages. Where you host your website impacts performance as well as SEO.
Small/Medium websites
If you are just starting a new WordPress blog or website or are expecting relativity modest number initially, shared WordPress hosting is the best way to go. I tried many different web hosting companies when I first launched Fourth Source, eventually the best one I came across for WordPress hosting in the UK was Tsohost.
I would recommend their Professional hosting at £49.99 per year.
I experienced no downtime and their support team is superb.

Large websites
If you know you will be experiencing a high volume of traffic from day one, or have an existing WordPress website with high traffic volume you will want to consider using a managed WordPress hosting service. Once we started to receive a high volume of traffic at Fourth Source, we decided to move to WP Engine. We are still using them to date.
WP Engine’s WordPress hosting starts at $29.99 (approx £20) per month.
