Question:

I need a paid wordpress service where I can host multiple blogs (with my own domain names) manage multiple authors and not have to do any installation or server management.

Answer:

What you need is one of those shared hosting accounts with

Unlimited hosting space
Unlimited bandwidth
Host unlimited add-on domains
Unlimited databases (for multiple WordPress installs)
Easy 1-click WordPress installation

The host I recommend for the best WordPress hosting is WebHostingHub. I have an account with them and they’re the only host I’ve used where WordPress runs the fastest. You do know that Google now uses load time as a ranking factor, right? A faster site means a better user experience. Happy users keep Google happy.

The Hub has cPanel control panel with the Fantastico De Luxe software installer. You’ll find the WordPress software in there. Just click on the WordPress link to spark up the installer. There is nothing to upload or configure, but you do have to tell WordPress which domain you want to install it on. You can also choose to install it in a folder on a domain, too. It’s hecka easy to do.

Once WordPress is installed, you can create your multiple users and assign roles to each user. This will help you out.
