When one is starting a website, shared hosting can be an inexpensive way to try out your idea. But once the website starts to grow shared hosting can be bad for your growth.

Reasons shared hosting can have a negative effect on website performance:

• Slow-loading website (If a website takes more than 3 seconds to load most of the users will abandon it).
• Can’t handle more than 20 users at once (the site will go down).

To overcome these challenges one can move the website to Cloud hosting, which is a little expensive as compared to shared hosting, but the benefits are worth the cost.

Cloud hosting has grown in popularity really fast and that too for good reasons. Hosting WordPress on a cloud host provider will really charge up your website and not only WordPress but any websites on other technologies also.

Before we discuss the best cloud hosting provider, let’s go into the differences between hosting solutions.

Shared Hosting

In shared hosting, the hosting providers sell the server space to a lot of clients to keep the cost low. One server can be shared by a hundred or sometimes a thousand websites.

This means you share the server resources with a lot of other websites, so if one website gets huge traffic, it will affect the performance of your website also.

Some of the best beginner-friendly shared hosts:

• Bluehost – starts as low as $2.95
• A2hosting
• GreenGeeks
• GoDaddy
