Episode Synopsis
Follow my WordPress newsletter https://thewpminute.com/subscribeRunning a WordPress business?
Of course you are! If you’re not, you can use these services for any form of online business.
In part 1, we’ll briefly cover WordPress hosting, a few plugins, and a couple or my choice productivity tools. There’s some cross compatibility from the blogging tips post, but I’ve wrapped some new context around the areas that apply. This post was inspired by Carrie Dils and her review of SaaS software for her own WordPress business.
I hope this helps you make some new decisions and enables you to run a better WordPress business.

WordPress hosting
As I stated in the podcast and in the video, this is not an in-depth review of WordPress hosts. This is a quick fly-by of hosts I’ve use and how you can use them too. I do plan on discussing WordPress hosts more in depth in another post.
Linode

Linode is a great VPS service if you’re looking to get your hands dirty. Their offerings are powerful and affordable. If you’re looking to host many WordPress websites and you know your way around Linux security give these guys a shot. In terms of uptime and performance I’ve had great results. Their support is also fast and friendly which is very important.
Pros:
Affordable
