Got questions? Well, we've got answers.

  • What's the difference between regular web hosting and WordPress hosting?

    In reality, "web hosting" is just an umbrella term that encompasses all types of hosting, including WordPress hosting. But we get what you're asking. Why WordPress hosting compared to, well, something else?

    Where WordPress hosting differs from other hosting options simply comes down to the features it comes with. Our WordPress web hosting is specially designed to help you get up and running with WordPress quicker and easier than other plans would provide. Learn more about "web hosting" vs WordPress hosting.

  • Do I actually need hosting for my WordPress site?

    The super straightforward answer is… it depends. WordPress is actually available in two different forms: WordPress.org and WordPress.com. If you're going the WordPress.com route, hosting isn't necessary, buuuut it comes with some limitations. Learn more about the difference between WordPress.org and WordPress.com.
