Default What should I look for in a wordpress host. Advice please.

I'm ready to move my wordpress blog from a free site to one that is hosted.

What should I look for in my webhost to show that they will support it? Can anyone host wordpress well or is it something more specialised.

My old website was hosted through these guys., https://www.web-mania.com/cgi-bin/we...nformation.cgi

and I'm happy with the service. It doesn't mention wordpress in their package. Is that a problem.

Sorry am complete newbie at this. Will really appreciate your help

Wordpress requires PHP and FTP access. They have both, should be fine.

Yes it does, thank you.

  • MySQL Database
  • phpMyAdmin for MySQL management
.. And both are included in the account she linked to.
