“WordPress comes in two major flavours: WordPress, the
one blog per instance, and WordPress MU for serving multiple blogs
from multiple instances with multiple users. Unless you are
considering creating a blogging network or news site, the standard
WordPress install should be all you need.“The next decision that needs to be made is whether to host your
WordPress instance on WordPress.com or on one’s own servers/hosting
solution. In this review we will be handling it from a bare-bones
server to cover the installation and configuration that is taken
care of when choosing WordPress.com or other WordPress-supporting
hosting providers. Hosting it on your own servers allows the use of
plug-ins, which easily provide features and flexibility, and the
option of hacking the PHP and CSS back-end code yourself, which can
come in very handy for naughty or not-quite-right themes and
plug-ins.”
