WordPress is an open source Content Management System (CMS), often used as a blog publishing application, powered by PHP and MySQL.

Tier3 WordPress Hosting Service
Instead of just offering the “minimum requirements” for wordpress, we try to take it a step further. There are many WordPress hosting providers, that offer “TurnKey” or “one-click and forget” (meaning, forget your customer), we want to work with you to make sure our service meets your specific needs. One size does not fit all. WordPress can offer so much more than just blog hosting, and in the right hands (and the right hosting company) it can be complete Content Management System (CMS).
WordPress Security
WordPress installation itself is pretty easy. However, being a complete open source product, with contributions from so many, there are a number of security considerations. At Tier3, we haven taken extra effort to make the installation as secure as possible and we continuously adapt our hosting infrastructure as new security concerns arise.
