MANAGED WORDPRESS HOSTING REVIEW
WHAT IS MANAGED WORDPRESS HOSTING?Managed WordPress Hosting came about because of the need for WordPress bloggers for a more robust solution for their blogs. WordPress blogs were prone to attacks from hackers and spammers and hence required a regular backup.
Moreover there were a lot of blogs which has huge traffic and hence required a hosting solution that could better handle the traffic. Add to it the fact that one would always be looking for a managed solution, so that they don’t have to do the regular updates or, troubleshoot technical problems and there arose the need for a customized solution.
Thus was born Managed WordPress Hosting Solutions.

THE VERDICTWhile all providers had pretty much the same features, some of them stood out because of their low pricing structure and better bandwidth and storage capabilities.
Enterprise plans varied between most of these providers. But since we were interested in personal plans for multi-sites we evaluated them on some basic aspects that you and me will be interested in..
