Best WordPress Web Hosting & Good SEO Tactics

Today we wanted to cover two topics: What is the best hosting provider for a WordPress website, and what are the best SEO tactics? For the latter question, you really need to make sure that you do things properly to avoid your website getting penalized and dropped from the search engine ranking pages. Generally, the tactics that work for Google will also work for the considerably smaller but still somewhat relevant search engines such as Bing and Yahoo.

Our Favourite WordPress Web Hosting Provider

There are a lot of good web hosts out there for people looking to host a WordPress website, some even specialize in pretty much just WordPress hosting. We find that while they do a great job of it, their prices are a little high when compared to other hosting providers that have a broader service offering. Our personal favorite for WordPress web hosting is A2 Hosting. We even found some great coupons for them at couponcodehoster.org/a2-hosting-promo-code/. Why are they are our favourite host when it comes to WordPress? It comes down to speed. Their servers are very fast, and you can pay a little extra per month to upgrade to a ‘Turbo Server’ for even more speed. One complaint I hear about WordPress sites is that they can be slow (although I would argue that this is usually due to unnecessary plugins that either load a bunch of external scripts or put the database size out of control). With A2 Hosting, your site will always be fast so it’s not an issue.

Neglecting Internet Connectivity

Switching to the cloud means the business is fully dependent on the internet. Therefore, it would be counterproductive to host your cloud servers in countries with unreliable internet connections that can experience slow or lagging service for hours, days, and even weeks.

Unreliable internet connectivity could be disastrous to your business, as operations could be put on hold for hours, even days. This is why it’s imperative for your business to make sure your internet provider is a reliable one, your cloud servers are hosted in countries with reputable internet services, and you have back-up plans for connection failures.

Leaping before Looking

Company managers can be at risk of jumping in too quickly when they hear the sales pitch of a cloud storage company. The promise of reduced costs, increased productivity, and connectivity is real, but there are some important factors to consider before committing to a contract.
