Expert WordPress Review
My friend Alex Syseof and his partner have just updated there Expert WordPress. Now when they first launched it a year or so ago I loved the ease and now they have made it even better.
The new automated install feature is great with a few caveats. It only works with a limited number of hosts. Host Gator is one of them and they are a quality host for blogs and quite reasonable too.
To do it you fill out a form and click install and your blog is up and installed and 90% of your settings are completed. There are a few odds and ends to clean up but I installed a new blog, tweaked the few items and has a blog up and complete in less than 10 minutes.
You can see the blog I created here on Colon Cleansing.The only things I needed to tweak after installing it was to add my Adsense information, my code for Askimet and my widget code for Share This. Then I edited the widget set up and I was totally done.
In doing this I went through all of the settings and Alex and Dmitry have set up this blog to be extremely SEO friendly and I was really surprised that there were very few tweaks that were different.
Over all they have done an excellent job and made it extremely easy for any niche blogger to install blogs quickly that are properly set up.
On a scale of 1-10 the setup is a 9 out of 10 for quality and the use is a 7 out of 10 only because of the limited number of hosts supported.

Hi Mike,
I agree with you that Expert WordPress is great. I have been using it for a couple months now and it just keeps getting better.

Hi Mike,
I too have used Alex’s Expert Word Press system to install blogs. I don’t use hostgator so had to install it manually but Alex and Dimitri have a great video that walks you though step by step. As you’ve mentioned in your post the blog comes with a great number of the best plugins already installed.

Hey Mike, thanks for the review and showing off the actual site.
We are constantly working on increasing number of supported hosts. Our goal is to provide support for as many as we can but some are simply incompatible due to the way they have chosen to compile LAMP on their hosting.

Looks like a great service!
Alex and Dmitry look like they have outdone themselves this time.
Am definitely going to have to check this out and I’m in luck as I use Hostgator myself for most of my sites.
Thanks for checking this out and providing an honest review.
Much appreciated!
