Just a few years ago web hosting companies only offered regular hosting packages, but since then it all changed. They soon realized that to stay profitable they should consider offering packages that were optimized for blog usage, and back then wordpress was (and still is) one of the most popular softwares to use for a self hosted blog, so that’s how WordPress web hosting package was born.
You might ask yourself what should be the characteristics of most of these packages, to answer this question we’ll need to ask ourselves what are the basic needs of a typical blog.
A. Doesn’t consume a lot of space, blogs doesn’t offer streaming content of files to download, pictures inside posts might be their top space consumer.
B. Since space consumption is not extremely high, we’ll assume that traffic consumption wont be high as well, as opposed to a streaming website for example.
C. Support for different necessary modules, some scripts will require certain modules to be enabled by the hosting provider for the script to properly work, in this case the necessary modules should be enabled for WordPress to function correctly.
D. Cheap price. Since the requirements are not high, the price should be cheap, we’ll recommend $3 – $6 a month package with unlimited add-on domains.
So now we understand what WordPress web hosting package is and how it works. AliveThemes.com offers a cheap WordPress web hosting package, we recommend checking them out.
