Why choose WordPress Hosting hosted in Canada? First, Google looks at where your server is located. If your physical address and server are Canadian, you’ll send a strong Canadian vibe to Google that you’re in business for Canadians (Pretty great, eh?). Finally, we’re a Canadian company and we do business in Canadian dollars, so you’ll never have to worry about outrageous exchange rates.

Who knew that the right hosting plan could help boost your business? Since we’re a global company with a global footprint, we provide the option to host your website at home or overseas. Google will then use your server location when ranking your site in regional markets to make your business more prominent. We’re also here to support you where you are – in your language and your currency.

Frequently Asked Questions

WordPress is one of the most popular Content Management Systems (CMS) available today. In fact, 28% of websites around the world currently run on WordPress. Companies of all sizes (from small businesses to large corporations to major news outlets) use it to create a powerful online presence.

Think of web hosting as renting a piece of land to build an online presence. When you buy web hosting, you’re buying space and resources on a server needed to build and present a website. HostPapa’s web hosting plan gives you the space and a ton of support features, tools, and expert support so you can have the website of your dreams.

WordPress hosting is a shared hosting service with the WordPress CMS automatically configured. It also comes with several integrated WordPress plugins that allow users to build their website instantly!

A WordPress Hosting service is in itself a web hosting service. The only difference is that WordPress hosting comes with the WordPress CMS automatically added for users to start building their websites instantly.

It means that we’ve carefully crafted our hosting platform and architecture from the ground up, specifically for hosting WordPress websites. This is not to be confused with “Managed WordPress”, an enterprise-grade hosting solution built exclusively for WordPress with ultimate website speed, performance, and security, while simplifying website maintenance.

Most companies charge much more for WordPress hosting than shared web hosting, but not HostPapa! Our WordPress hosting is exactly the same price as our shared web hosting plans, even with all the added WordPress features included. We take care of everything: your WordPress website is optimized, fast, and always up to date and protected with the latest security patches, letting you focus on what matters most - creating content and building your business!

Not at all! We auto-install the latest version of WordPress, the very same one you’d download from WordPress.org, along with advanced caching and host it on our lightning fast servers for the very best in WordPress website hosting. You also get around-the-clock support from our PapaSquad WordPress experts - available whenever you need them!

None whatsoever. Our team of trained WordPress experts handle all of the setup for you. After your purchase is complete, just log in and you really just have to log in and begin filling your new website with content.

Absolutely. You can transfer your existing WordPress website over to HostPapa’s optimized WordPress hosting platform. Better yet, we’ll transfer it for you at no extra cost. Once your purchase is complete, just open a support ticket from your HostPapa Dashboard letting our PapaSquad team know that you’d like to move an existing website over to us!
