WordPress Web Hosting with Gandi
Wordpress
Arguably the greatest CMS on the market, WordPress combines power and excellent SEO capabilities all while allowing those who don’t master programming languages to develop a high-quality website. Suitable WordPress hosting is essential to ensure your website will be as responsive and safe as possible without missing out on any aspect of WordPress’ impressive set of performances.
Essential Elements for Quality WordPress Hosting
Among the advantages Gandi provides in terms of WordPress web hosting, flexibility is one of the most important elements. Being able to adjust your offer at any time to allow for more power may prove crucial in the event of a traffic spike, be it temporary or permanent.
Having a WordPress hosting solution which is constantly updated and configured with the latest versions of PHP and MySQL is just as vital. Gandi generates SSL certificates for free.
Not all websites have the same storage requirements. That’s why we choose to offer up to 2 To of additional storage space to ensure even the heaviest websites can function optimally.
Gandi boosts its WordPress web hosting solutions thanks to a ‘Varnish’ cache. The latter caches the most frequently visited pages on your WordPress website to lower response time. This gives your visitors an even more pleasant experience.
