Default Wordpress, private registration and more

I have a couple of blogs with domain names I already purchased through GoDaddy.com and I currently update them through Wordpress. I am looking to upgrade my blog accounts for CSS and I need a host that I can use to install Wordpress. I've heard great things about this company and I just want to make sure it will work for me and see if anyone has suggestions about which plan I should use.

Also, does private registration cost any extra? I do not want my personal information available on WhoIs...

Thanks!

To transfer your domains' hosting, you do not need to transfer your domains' registration. Many of us with hosting accounts at HG use different domain registrars, including Godaddy. There are sound reasons to keep the two separate.

By "update through Wordpress" do you mean update the application when new versions are released or update your blog entries? Either way, HG probably has thousands of Wordpress installations.
