Hosting Wordpress

Wordpress can be hosted on almost all providers. The requirements are that the hosting package supports:

• PHP
• MYSQL

The php version numbers will change as the Wordpress version changes. You can check the latest versions here.

A number of hosting providers support what is know as 1 click install which make the install process a simple matter of filling in a form. I would recommend that you select a host that does were possible.

Otherwise you will need to do a manual install of Wordpress which is not very difficult as it simply involves downloading the wordpress files from Wordpress , uploading them to your web host and running the install script.
