Understanding The Web Hosting Options for Your WordPress Site

April’s Deep Dive Dive Discussion is one of our first, Member’s Choice Topics — “How to I know what kind of web hosting features I need?”

This discussion is for business site owners / managers considering adding eCommerce features, or site membership options; those new to WordPress and even those of us who have been hosting our sites for a while, and wonder if we made the right choice for our current needs.

There have never been more options for hosting your WordPress site… and frankly sometimes the level of choice is sometimes confusing. We here in the Austin WordPress Community are very fortunate to have several members who are part of the WordPress hosting industry. Even better, they are willing to sit down with us and explain all the various nuances of the WordPress hosting options available to WordPress site owners/managers.

Shayda Torabi from WP Engine and Mendel Kurland  from GoDaddywill explain the various types of web hosting options, features, best practices.  This is a great opportunity to have some one-on-one time with two great members of our WP community who are web hosting professionals. By the end of this deep Dive Discussion attendees will have a better grasp on how to choose WordPress hosting from all the available options that are out there. Bring your questions and your laptop. We look forward to seeing you there.
