Short answer
WordPress hosting is web hosting set up to run WordPress well: one-click installation, caching that makes pages load faster, staging copies for safe updates, and automatic updates and backups. At Hostnali, every web hosting plan includes all of it.
WordPress powers a large share of the world’s websites, from blogs to company sites and online shops. It runs on any ordinary hosting, but some hosting runs it far better.
What makes hosting good for WordPress
- One-click install: WordPress set up in a minute with Softaculous.
- LiteSpeed Cache: a free plugin that speeds up every page by serving cached copies.
- NVMe SSD storage: quicker database queries, so the admin area and pages load fast.
- Staging: test updates and new plugins on a copy before your visitors see them.
- Automatic updates and daily backups: fewer security holes, and a way back if something breaks.
- Free SSL: your site runs on https from the first day.
Do I need special WordPress hosting?
At Hostnali, no: every web hosting plan includes everything listed above. Our WordPress hosting page explains the WordPress features, and WooCommerce hosting covers online shops.
You’d only need more than shared hosting for very busy sites, such as large shops or news sites with heavy traffic. In that case, look at cloud or corporate hosting.
Getting started
- Choose a plan and a domain.
- Install WordPress from cPanel.
- Pick a light theme, switch on LiteSpeed Cache and start publishing.
