Notes:

1) We only cover true WordPress hosting companies. Offering a one click installer on a vanilla shared hosting plan doesn’t count in our eyes.

2) Prices listed are for month to month contracts. Prices listed are also without any introductory discounts.

3) Prices valid at time of publish but subject to change; please do refer to the hosting company for the most upto date price.
