Finding a good web host can be hard but finding a web hosting company that has a one click install for Wordpress can be harder. There are some out there that offer Fantastico De Luxe which will install a blog for you in no time. All you simply do is login to your cPanel and go to the Fantastico icon. Choose which blog software you want and then follow the easy instructions. There is no need to learn how to install a database as Fantastico will do this for you. it’s so easy you can have a blog installed within minutes.

This brings me to the next question. Which hosts offer wordpress hosting plus the other services most people are looking for. Services like Paypal payments, cPanel, monthly payments, 24×7 customer support and a good price. Getting all those can be hard to find but not impossible, there are a handful of good web host that offer this. One that customers really seem to like is McKremie, a US-based hosting company. They offer both phone and email support which is good. You never know when you might need to pick up the phone and have to call your hosting support department.

One more note, Fantastico offers more than just blog software. If you need an easy way to install forum software, Wiki, guest book and many others Fantastico can do it quick and easy. So don’t spend hours learning how to install a database when a script can do it for you.
