Yes, you can use your own hosting with WordPress by installing WordPress.org on any compatible server. You control the domain, files, database, themes, and plugins, and you can move hosts anytime. Most hosts offer a one-click installer, or you can upload WordPress manually, create a database, and run the setup wizard. You’ll also manage updates, backups, caching, and security, either yourself or with plugins. This approach gives maximum flexibility for custom themes, WooCommerce stores, and integrations. Choose hosting that supports PHP, HTTPS, and enough resources for your traffic and storage needs. A staging site helps test changes before going live.
