[Guest article by Joanna] Many WordPress hosting companies offer one-click installation of WordPress. Even if the site of a particular WordPress hosting company doesn’t explicitly state that they offer one-click installation, this doesn’t mean they don’t – just call and ask. Sometimes even the best WordPress hosts, which are a top choice in any aspect, don’t think that one-click install is something so important that it needs to be mentioned explicitly on their site but they actually offer one-click WordPress installation.
