Wordpress & Technology
WEBSITE HOSTING
The best, cheapest and easiest website hosting option for beginning bloggers is Bluehost. They’ve got a few different plans, but I recommend just starting with the Basic Plan for just $2.95/month (this is a special deal just for my readers; normally it’s $7.99/month). You’ll also receive a free domain name and Wordpress installation! *Note, since my page views have surpassed 50,000 per month, I’ve upgraded my hosting service to Cloudways, but until you need the upgrade Bluehost is the best place to get started.
