It is almost impossible to slash your way through the jungle of marketing and misinformation to find the tiny number of hosts who provide a competent, conscientious service. So, to find the very best WordPress hosts, we look at the results of the biggest WordPress hosting studies ever, with 830 respondents hosting 11,736 websites.
There are several hosting providers that offer managed hosting, but it could be tough to tell which is best based on their own marketing. Regardless of your WordPress experience, choosing managed hosting can be a minefield.

Ever heard of Google AMP? It stands for Accelerated Mobile Pages and it’s an open source project. A webinar is being organised on Wednesday April 12 that will teach you what you need to know about AMP and how to make it work with WordPress.
“Web Week” was thought up by the folks at WP Engine, and it’s the week between Christmas and New Year’s Eve when most sites get lower traffic. This makes it the perfect time to make and launch any changes to a site, or to launch your existing site on a new host.
While at Web Summit where literally thousands of startups were exhibiting, I had the chance to talk to many of the people behind these startups and get to know their businesses better.
I was happy to note that the vast majority were using WordPress for their website. I didn’t meet any startups that were using WordPress as the platform for building the product itself, however it was clear that the company’s website was very important to them. Making a good impression through their website could mean getting investment, or for those further ahead it might make or break their sales figures.
Have you ever tried migrating a WordPress site manually? If you have, or know someone who has, you know how complicated, sometimes expensive and long a process it can be.

Web hosting refers to where our website is going to be “living”. Just like our families have their own homes to live in, a website’s set of files must have a little space somewhere to call their own.
These spaces are called servers, and there are large warehouses all over the world that are full of them, all waiting to be “rented out” to you, the client. This is done through what we call a hosting company. Its job is to rent you a space on their server, take care of your files, and provide the best service possible to keep your site running smoothly.
There are certain factors to take into consideration when choosing your web host, some more important than others. Below is a list of these factors in no particular order to get you going on your new site.
Wouldn’t it be ideal for your hosting company to have some sort of recovery solution that kicks in in the worst of times? Enter WP Engine‘s Hot Standby.
