Hosting

We’d always recommend that you choose a quality WordPress hosting provider – ideally one that specializes in WordPress and doesn’t try to do everything.

The Flywheel backend, as shown for elod.in

Here are a few good providers:

  • Flywheel: our recommended host. They do a great job with backups, caching, security (integration with Sucuri)
  • WPEngine: the interface isn’t as nice, and they’re a bit pricier, but they’re very solid and offer a slightly larger feature set than Flywheel (mainly, they have a git integration)
  • SiteGround: they don’t truly specialize, and they love to upcharge, but SiteGround’s support is very, very fast.
  • We’d recommend against using GoDaddy, BlueHost or any host owned by EIG
