The Best Web Hosting

if you would like to have a WordPress blog, but not have to worry about the file and server side of things, WordPress actually offers free hosting (with some paid upgrades available) at WordPress.com.

However, WordPress.com does not enable users to have access to the files that are on the server, meaning that users will not be able to add plug-ins to their blog, as well as other things to their website (forums, files, static pages, etc.), other than what WordPress allows users to upload to their blogs. 

There are some paid upgrades, however, that user can purchase, for things like using your own domain name, access to and the ability to change the CSS code of the blog, storage upgrades, premium themes, as well as others, which you can view at the link below.

The other option for having a WordPress blog is to host the blog on a webhost other than WordPress.com. 

By doing this, you will have access to all of the files on the server, including those for your blog and whatever else you may want to upload. This means that you will be able to install upgrades and add themes to your WordPress blog, as well as add other things to your website, like forums, static webpages, etc. 

Some webhosts that you may want to check out, all of which are able to host WordPress include:

http://HostGator.com 

http://HostMonster.com 

http://MediaTemple.com 

Also, while many webhosts offer an install script for WordPress so that you will not have to install it manually, you can download the latest version of WordPress, as well as a variety of upgrades, plug-ins, and themes, from the official WordPress website, listed below.

Best of luck and I hope I helped you!
