Cynthia: If you just need a Canadian server, not a Canadian corporation,
check out Site5[1]. Not sure if they are exactly what you are looking
for, but they have the standard one-click install ControlPanel stuff.
Not sure about the automated backup options you're looking for. I've
been using them for a few years, and have zero complaints.
Riley: Really? Why would we be hard pressed to find that in Canada?

Thanks Kevin. Servers need to be in Canada, preferably paid in Canadian but
I don't think that's necessary. I'll looking your recommendation.

Does the entity you pay need to be in Canada (that is, accept payment in

I use http://www.csoft.net/ for my personal hosting. Their business
office is in Canada, but I'm unclear on where their servers are. Their
documentation is written assuming you have strong technical skills, but
they respond quickly (and tersely) whenever I've needed help to address
gaps in my skills. They have some specific instructions for installation
of WordPress once you've connected to them through SSH:

They also have documentation in French in case that's helpful.

Hi Everyone,
Apologies for cross-posting, but code4lib is much more active, and has
more
Canadians that I've seen.
I was wondering if anyone had recommendations for a WordPress hosting
solution? And yes, it needs to be in Canada. I can do most of my own
dev-type work, so really it just needs to be setup to run WordPress
(preferably with 1-click install), and most of all, reliable, hopefully
with good customer service for when we need to contact the company.
Okay, also preferable is that they do daily backups for us and has
excellent security (considering it's WordPress).
Too many hosting solutions include email and a bunch of other stuff, and I
need it only for WordPress and nothing else.
A name, plus at least 1-2 reasons on the recommendation would be great!
Thanks in advance,
Cynthia
