Increasing number of web hosting industry in the world forces us to compare between web hosting providers with each other. Web hosting is one of the major component in running a website (in this case is a wordpress blog) and choose the right web hosting is the first step in the success of a blog.

Currently you can find a lot of web hosting providers, ranging from free with banner ads up, cheap web hosting with features that are limited, to a dedicated server that cost millions of dollars / month. There are also web hosting by offering very low prices but with long-term contracts.

If all the claims of the best, then select who?

If all the claims of the best, choose according to your needs. If you are only looking for web hosting for a wordpress blog you do not need to buy a dedicated server that cost thousands of dollars per month, because you do not need it.

Wordpress is very lightweight application that you need to install wordpress just

1. PHP 4.3 or above
2. MySQL 4.0 or later
3. Apache module

So technically you can select the web hosting anywhere, provided that meet the above requirements and almost all web hosting services already provide these features.

There’s much more consideration before deciding to hire a web hosting, such as:

1. Capacity space provided

WordPress installation files do not need the space too big, but you should select 100MB or more.

2. Bandwidth

At the beginning of the month is usually the bandwidth consumption of your blog is still small, but along with the increasing traffic of visitors from your blog, the need for bandwidth is also increased.

3. Customer Support

I’ve tried several web hosting providers. Thing I often do before deciding to hire a web hosting is to test customer support. I try to ask something via email, SMS, Live Chat and then I saw the response. In this way you can assess the professionalism of the web hosting provider.

My advice, choose a web hosting provider that customer support is 24 hours and fast responses and have a Live Chat.

4. The number of allowed domains and databases.

At first maybe we only have one website, so we need only 1 domain and one database connection. But what if in the future we want to install a new blog?. Do we have to buy hosting again?. So my advice is choose a web hosting with unlimited domain feature and an unlimited database connections.
5. Money Back Guarantee

Very few web hosting providers that provide money back guarantee. One of the criteria for a good web hosting provider is giving money back guarantee.

6. Free Trial

Service free trial is very important because with this service you can assess the performance of web hosting that you choose.

So what’s the recommendation from me.

I am not able to judge which is the best web hosting, but at least if the web hosting provider has a criteria as above can you make a choice.
