Yes, WordPress is fully supported
WordPress is the most widely used CMS in the world - and it runs on all of our web hosting plans without restrictions. Our servers meet the recommended WordPress requirements: current PHP versions, MySQL databases, HTTPS with free Let's Encrypt certificates and plenty of space for themes, plugins and media.
Which plan suits your WordPress site?
- Economy: ideal for blogs, portfolios, club and small business websites
- Professional: for business websites with many plugins, several WordPress installations or multisite
- Premium: for high-traffic sites, magazines and online shops with WooCommerce; Redis as an object cache on request
Installing WordPress
The quickest way is the one-click installer in the KeyHelp control panel. Alternatively, download WordPress from wordpress.org, upload the files via SFTP and create a database in the control panel. Experienced users work via SSH with WP-CLI.
Tips for fast and secure WordPress sites
- Select the most recent PHP version in the control panel that your theme and plugins support.
- Keep WordPress, themes and plugins up to date and remove unused extensions.
- Use a caching plugin and optimise images before uploading them.
- Replace the built-in WordPress scheduler (WP-Cron) with a real cron job - this takes load off every page view.
