Two types of hosting-
Shared hosting- you are on a server with hundreds or thousands of other sites. Â Everyone shares the same resources and can impact each other. This is great for traffic under 1k a month.
VPS hosting- you are somewhat on your own island with your own set of resources. This is optimal for e-commerce and lots of traffic.
- What should you pay
- $10-$20 a month
- I offer WP hosting for $168 a year. If you like what you’ve built on your practice site, when you’re done we can move your site to your domain and you can stay on Inmotion Hosting.
