WordPress hosting choices, infrastructure requirements, and how the host underneath your site sets the ceiling for performance.
The host underneath your WordPress site is the single biggest decision you make about how it performs, how secure it is, and what features you can actually use. Cheap shared hosting puts a hard ceiling on what's achievable: PHP versions, worker counts, caching layers, websocket support, and outbound connection limits all live below the WordPress install, and no plugin can fix them after the fact. We've seen it on hundreds of client sites over 25 years.
The articles in this section cover hosting choices honestly. We don't sell hosting ourselves, our sister company 365i does that, but we make hosting recommendations on every project we touch. If you're trying to work out whether your current host is holding you back, or whether a move would justify the cost, these guides will give you the real-world view from people who build and maintain WordPress sites for a living.
