As mentioned earlier, shared hosting is hosting a group of websites on the same server, thereby reducing the hosting costs paid by the individual to the data center, as all websites hosted on the server share these costs instead of the individual paying them alone if they use dedicated hosting.

It doesn’t matter which hosting service you use for your new website in terms of the result, but by using WordPress hosting, the hosting service will take care of installing and continuously updating the WordPress script, as well as taking regular backups of the website. Yes, you can do the same things with shared hosting, but you will need to use external services/add-ons. With WordPress hosting, however, the hosting site is the only one that does this.

WordPress hosting takes care of you and performs routine tasks on your behalf. It may be more expensive, but if you feel like you can’t handle your website on your own, you’re better off with this service. If you’re tech-savvy and have a little programming knowledge, you can do it yourself and achieve reasonably good results without having to pay a fortune. Having a managed service on a very high-traffic site will definitely show some improvements in performance. But if your site gets thousands of visitors per day, you will only notice a marginal difference. Be sure to do a cost-benefit analysis and take a trial account before you actually put your money into it.
