Yahoo Hosting Review3.25Steven Johnson2010-03-01 16:43:15Yahoo is a great search engine and new portal but does not provide the best WordPress hosting.

They have a full range of packages and tech support but may not give you the level of customization and flexibility you may need. Yahoo!

Hosting features:
First 3 months heavily discounted
24 hour phone support
Well established shopping cart addon

Yahoo is well known but does not have single hosting focus like many of the other hosting companies. WordPress sites may run a little slower than with some of the other hosting companies.
