What is Web Hosting
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own websites accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Webhosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation.

How to choose the right WordPress Web hosting?
Basically, there’s no rocket science behind picking up the right WordPress hosting. Besides having all the basic must-have factors (eg. a stable server, efficient customer supports, and affordable price), a good WordPress web host should:
1. Allow users to install WordPress easily
Installing WordPress manually can be quite a tedious job especially if you are not a tech person. Thus, it is important to make sure that the web host you picked supports WordPress auto installation. It doesn’t matter if it comes with Fantastico, Simple Scripts, or in-house developed program – the keypoint is to make sure you can install, maintain, and uninstall your WordPress sites in just a couple of minutes.

2. Keep WordPress updated
Because of its popularity, outdated WordPress sites are exposed to excessive risks of being hacked. Hence, it is important to make sure the installation files provided by your web host is the latest updated version. The one-click installation files hosted by Web Hosting Scotland are always the latest version. WordPress has its own very good updating methods.
3. Provide WordPress related technical support
Yes it’s true that web hosting companies have every right to not provide WordPress related supports. However, technical supports from good hosting company are often able to troubleshoot moderate level of WordPress related problems – which in turn, save you hours of reading (or hair-pulling) session when dealing with WordPress difficulties.

What function does your blog serve?
It seems like a basic question, but unless you have specific aims and goals for your blog, then you’re limiting its potential. Even if you have a clear strategy for your blog, it’s worth revisiting this question from time to time to see how your views and goals have changed, and what progress you’ve made.
Although you may be able to answer the question ‘What are you trying to achieve with your blog?’ in one or two words (‘Sales’ or ‘Increased reputation’ being a couple that spring to mind), it’s worth brainstorming all the potential purposes and goals, for example:
