Web Hosting Recommendations?

[NateZA]

Hi Community,

Hi everyone, I'm Nate and I'm new to the board. I'm seeking recommendations for web hosting and would appreciate your input.

I have two WordPress websites that I need to host. One is currently with GoDaddy and the other is with Axxess, if I'm not mistaken. I'm looking for a shared hosting package that is affordable, reliable, and fast.

One website is a general blog and forum and the other is an online store.

Based on your experience:
- What is the best hosting solution for my needs?
- Should I go with shared hosting?
- Which provider has worked best for you?

Any additional advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Nate

Shared hosting would be the cheapest option, Many providers have "WordPress" optimised shared hosting plans.

Another option based on your Linux experience would be a standalone VPS if you don't require email and a control panel for management.

100% agree with this, If you're looking to run an ecommerce store then you would be silly to not run it from a VPS server.

BlueHost is my recommendation, cheap and fast.
