Which WordPress hosting plan should I choose?

How do I create a website with WordPress?
WordPress hosting allows you to publish a website at a low price and without ads.
You no longer need to download WordPress files and install them manually on a server. OVHcloud takes care of this for you via the free 1-click installation module, which automatically creates a database to store all of your content. When you order a web hosting plan, choose WordPress from the modules available.
If you already have a hosting plan with OVHcloud, go to your Control Panel, and go to the “Hosting” section, where you can install the 1-click WordPress module for free on your website.
You will receive a confirmation email, detailing all of the steps you need to follow for your first connection. Choose the name of your site and get started!
1. First, configure how your website will look with the “appearance” setting. WordPress offers free or premium themes to download. You can find them in the library or via forums in the WordPress community. Narrow down your selection using the filters.
2. Then use the “Pages” tab to create the first pages of your blog and organise the different sections of your website. All you have to do now is write your first posts. Optimise your font, text size and page layout to improve readability.
3. Browse the “Plugins” section to improve your website and manage it in the way you want. Add a section to optimise comment management, improve page performance, improve your blog's security, etc.
