How can I host WordPress cheaply?
WordPress is a lightweight system that “theoretically” works on any server that supports PHP and MySQL 8. However, most hosting companies can offer very low rates to their clients. Knowing this information suddenly makes people make decisions based on “who has the lowest price” and then they choose the cheapest WordPress hosting provider they can.
However, we should not forget about quality. There is a big difference between a website that only works and one that works well. Although most “shared servers” (shared hosts) to meet user requirements, there are many other factors to consider.
When choosing a web hosting provider, you need to make sure that your provider provides you with all the necessary resources so that your page runs quickly and smoothly. You need a company that allows you to provide the best user experience for your visitors and can also help you rank well on Google. Therefore, it is important to choose not only the cheapest WordPress host but also the highest quality host.
Here are some tips to help you choose a high-quality and affordable WordPress web hosting company.
- Can you handle my needs?
Of course, the quality varies from server to server, company to company and the complexity of your site is also an issue. A website with multiple plugins consumes multiple queries to the database, consumes more resources, and makes your page load slower. But in general, a shared server can run one or more WordPress sites well. However, one can manage a web page that gets 10,000 and 14,000 visits per day, without any problem.
- Speed
A well-performing website loads your pages quickly. Having a fast site will ensure that your users stay longer on your page and don’t leave your site due to slow load time. This is a critical factor if you participate in any activity that involves online sales. A lot of time loading the virtual store is destined to lose sales and profits. People are impatient these days. Leave them on hold and you will lose potential customers who will never visit your site again.
Note. Search engines like Google also consider the speed of your site as one of their ranking factors. Your position in Google Search may be affected if your site does not have a good download speed.
Remember, look for high-performance servers that help your site work (since its speed also depends on the server that hosts your website).
- Stability
In addition to the download speed issue, you need to make sure that your site stays there as long as possible. There is nothing more frustrating for the user than trying to access your site and suddenly it is offline. Unfortunately, this can happen frequently with a low-quality and low-service hosting company.
The servers of the best hosting providers are monitored 24 hours a day and provide more than 99% uptime.
Your site’s Google ranking may also be adversely affected if it is not frequently available to the public. So when choosing a WordPress hosting provider, make sure your website is always available to your users.
- Security
The hosting company must ensure that the data on its site is protected against any problems related to the server it hosts. If the server fails, the company must have an information system so that the data stored on the server is not lost in the event of accidents. The company must also have a routine backup system and/or data protection.
- Customer service
You will probably need the support of the company at one time or another. Although you may never have to troubleshoot a serious problem, you will need help making at least some basic settings. When the time comes, you should have an effective support channel that can be quickly contacted and calculated when you need it.
