Is your Starter Web Hosting enough to host a wordpress engine for my site?

case — Wed, 05 Feb 2014 07:42:22 GMT

Hi all,

I have been going through the three plans for £5.00, £9.99 and £15.00 at http://business.bt.com/domains-and-hosting/web-hosting/features/. According to that page, a "Starter Web Hosting" plan can have a wordpress engine. However, there is no mySql or phpMyAdmin support under this Starter plan.

As far as I know, wordpress normally requires a mySQL database to get it installed and functioned.

As my requirement is just to up and run a wordpress engine for my site, can someone please tell me whether I can go for a Starter Web Hosting?

Thanks for reading,

Kumar

The basic shared hosting account is sufficient for a WordPress website. The selection of the web hosting package must be done according to the website requirements in order to get the best results.

"The basic shared hosting account is sufficient for a WordPress website."

Thanks for the response However I still don't get how would I get it installed without any DB under that plan.

The starter hosting now comes with a Wordpress Installer.

This will install the database etc on your hosting, however there is no facility to access the database using phpmyadmin etc.
