Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a good WordPress host?

Key factors include server performance (TTFB under 500ms), WordPress-specific optimizations like caching and staging environments, quality of support, uptime guarantees, and transparent pricing without aggressive renewal hikes.

Is managed WordPress hosting worth it?

For business sites generating revenue, yes. Managed hosts like Kinsta or WP Engine handle updates, security, backups, and performance optimization—saving you time and reducing risk. For hobby sites, quality shared hosting works fine.

What should I avoid in a WordPress host?

Watch out for "unlimited" claims (nothing is truly unlimited), extremely low introductory prices with 10x renewal rates, EIG/Newfold-owned brands with shared infrastructure, and hosts with aggressive upselling tactics.

Why do scores vary so much between hosts?

This list intentionally covers the full market—from premium managed hosts ($25-100/mo) to budget shared hosting ($3-10/mo) to hosts you should avoid. The score reflects real-world performance, support quality, and value, not just price.
