Web Host: Omnis August 24th, 2010
Posted By: S. Reily - http://www.handlpestcontrol.com/

Been with Omnis Network for a few months now.  I was a little nervous since this was my first website, but Omnis has made everything pretty easy for me.  It helps that their tech support is always there and is able to answer any question that I have.  Even for a novice like me, they provide technical answers that are easy to understand.  They even have video tutorials that they provide to make it even easier to set up and maintain your website.  User friendly system, polite and helpful technical support, makes Omnis a very good place for people with their first website.

Web Host: World Cheapest Hosting August 23rd, 2010
Posted By: Yousuf Ahmed - http://www.nfmnj.com
There have so many company provide cheapest hosting in the world. But, WorldCheapestHosting.com is cheap & best. Why? Because, unlimited shared hosting price is only $1 per month. Unlimited Reseller(WHM) package price is only $2 per month. Besides, you can pay from Paypal, Alertpay & Credit Card. Even, if you request manually they can accept any kinds of payment, like: LR, PM, Webmoney etc. I already pay from LR request them manually. I host the site http://nfmnj.com & this is a PR4 free directory site which is approve instantly. So, I receive this site high traffic. 1 Month alexa ranking: 34,562. When I published any news about my directory, I receive so many traffic at a time. So, I can easily confirm this is reliable hosting. So, if you find a cheapest hosting, I suggest you this company.

Web Host: CEEGHost August 18th, 2010
Posted By: Eli Williams - http://www.zonixsolutions.com
I just wanted to take a few moments to explain why I chose CEEG over the countless other web host's out there. You already know as well as I do that there are thousand upon thousands of web hosting providers offering their services as we speak. With that said, what do you feel the best quality in a web host should be? You might say Up time, or Customer Service, Type or hardware, or even the bandwidth provider. All of these are key when searching for the best host to suit your needs. With this said, I guarantee CEEGHost delivers these flawlessly. As a recent customer coming from an absolute horrid hosting nightmare, CEEGHost has delivered all aspects I've listed above to the utmost perfection. The customer service offered by the staff of CEEGHost was amazing, I absolutely could not of asked more from them. Without going into extreme detail, CEEGHost went above and beyond the expectations of any web host in the industry to make sure my experience with them was nothing more than amazing. Before I decided to make the move to CEEG, I wanted more information about their up time statistics, hardware information, and bandwidth providers. The staff at CEEG were more than happy to release these details freely, which is something you won't find at other web hosts. Zero hardware failures, absolutely no unscheduled downtime, combined with strong bandwidth providers makes CEEG a web host that is hard to match. If your looking for a solid well rounded web host, I suggest you try their service. You really have nothing to lose, Why? They offer a money back guarantee, so, if your not satisfied within 30 days... No sweat!

Web Host: HostV August 13th, 2010
Posted By: Ronald - http://www.wiihotties.com
Started using hostv VPS accounts for my video portal about a year ago, and now I remain enjoyed. The service of highest quality and the support of the best professional level are the things I like this provider for.

The performance of the server my account is placed at is great, never down since the setup. There have been a few issues, but none was guilty, and everything's quickly resolved. Prices are of upper average for the VPS, but it is worth of every dollar.

I wish it remains so good further. Thanks HostV.

Web Host: Omnis August 12th, 2010
Posted By: Nathan Krisel - http://www.kundalink.com
Omnis has been a great hosting company, providing an excellent product and top notch service.  When I was looking for a web hosting company a few years ago, they were my top pick, and they still are my pick for hosting as I create new websites.  They keep things simple by offering only a few different hosting packages, and I have been able to use them for both my online business and my personal websites.  From being around since 1999, that gives me the confidence in knowing that they have history and are likely to be around for a lot longer.  As my websites have changed, and my needs have changed, Omnis has always been able to help me and handle all of them.  Their prices are great and tech support is super.

Web Host: 247-host August 3rd, 2010
Posted By: Laurentiu St - http://hostingservice.name/

I choose 247-host.com based mostly on CNET references. After paying for a year on a reseller plan (by the way in which, subscribing for a year seems to be a big mistake when it comes to internet hosting), all my websites and my customer web sites have been working simply fine. After a month, web sites begin to go down for a few hours, principally for server automated processes like auto FSCK (forced into a kernal panic mode), file checks on servers  and sort of maintenance processes. 
In time things start to get worse and kind of messages from tech support like *there was an error on this server and we had to do an OS reboot* begin to annoy my clients. Plus ”help” service begin to grow to be as much as in-existent. Sometimes answers to any questions and queries arrive after 12 to 24 hours, as an alternative of minutes (correctly on a good hosting company).
Finally, all my websites start to be severely hacked and populate with viruses, than changed with different internet websites and mess continue with the worst possible.
Final attacked comply with by all my web sites fully down for nearly two complete days was on July 22, 2010. Of course, after two days where my net websites have been down and downgraded by Google, I decided to maneuver from service and ask for refund.
I did this on 24 Jul 2010. I requested for refund and moved on other supplier and deleted all my domains from 247-host.
After three days they reply to my refund request with this:
*There will be no refund provided. All data was restored on a timely manner as this event of hacking does require for us to go through a process that will restore data on the server and maximize security on the machine which cannot be done within 24 hours.*
Is like saying: ”Hey.. It is more than regular to have your website down than 24 hours (actuality it was: 34 hours down for some web sites and 49 hours for others).

Web Host: HostGator July 27th, 2010
Posted By: Warner Frank - http://www.betrussia.com
I have hosted with Host Gator before and have never been disappointed with their service. I have had superb up-time and they are fairly reliable and very stable. I like most off all is how they communicate with you in regards to billing, errors, updates, changes, etc.

I have found their customer service to be a bit unprofessional at times, but I was always able to resolve my issues with them.

They boast an easy to use interface and provide access to systems and database management tools that even a newbie can use easily. The hosting package are affordable and depending on your needs, can be expanded without downtime or loss of data.  They provide free data transfer from package to package upgrades.

I strongly recommend Host Gator as one of the best hosting options.

Posted By: Larry Ray Palmer - http://www.opendooronthenet.com
I have nothing but good things to say about HostGator.  The service is excellent.  When the occasional problem does arise, their support staff is quick to correct the problem while you chat with them. I have never had a problem that has lasted beyond the length of the live support chat session. They are even flexible on payments. I am a freelancer so sometimes paychecks don't arrive when expected and HostGator always works with me to make sure my websites stay online.

After a year of being a hostv client I am ready to report on their quality and my impressions about the host. They give excellent service at all parameters from support to uptime and the features included in their accounts are indeed very useful. Not any lags connected with the distance (US server, european audience) not any troubles with accessibility since the account activation. The support team is highly professional and every time I ask anything they reply within a half an hour. This host is a reliable partner for online business, I think it is worth dealing with.

The support they give and the service quality they provide are always high. Many features make hosting the lesser problem for us and helps our business to grow.

We recommend hostv VPS.

I've been with Hostgator for last 6 months. I 'm pleasantly surprised with their great support and service. I've been with a stack of hosting companies and none of them were very helpful.. but this team is very responsive to any of my (frequent!) inquiries! They had a downtime I cant remember, t. I got consistent updates by email on exactly what was happening, no excuses, and the problem was solved before I knew it. Every host has downtime, and NONE deal with it that well.

I found them very fast and reliable. I've seen their marketing style is quite aggressive as well.

But I Personally feel it is a really great Host. Earlier I was getting bandwidth problems with my website http://travelspeaks.in and my old web host suspended my website three times. But HostGator works Great for me.

Web Host: DownTownHost June 30th, 2010
Posted By: David - http://investordavid.com
I am a relatively new customer of DownTownHost (about 2 months plus now), and I have been very impressed by their service, both in terms of uptime and customer care. So far I have not noticed my website being down at any point of time throughout my term, except once where I could not upload somethings into wordpress, though the site could still be accessed at that same time. Furthermore the live chat is online most of the time, and any queries get answered really fast.

For me a webhost needs to have a few things - a good website design, no overselling, good reputation, a live chat button - all these things DownTownHost has. The only thing is that its plans are a bit pricey, unless you buy them in bulk. I got them at a discount though, so all's good :)

I have been a Just Host client since October 2009. I am highly satisfied with their service! To be straight forward they give you what they promise! Never had a problem with neither uptime, web-space or bandwidth! I host one of my main websites there, http://earndomain.com and to be honest in all of my time being a client of JustHost, all I can remember is half an hour of off-time. That is probably a record! They are number one in the world in my opinion and I'm going to stick to them till the end of my online career! Regards to all and Just Host! :)

I have been hosting with Hostgator for just over 2 and a half years now, they've been great so far. Had a few minor problems with billing a few times but apart from that they have been amazing. I have recommended them to a lot of my friends as there support is amazing! There always so quick to get back to you regarding any questions and are very polite on the phone or via 24/7 webchat. I think there value for money is ok i know that there are cheaper hosts around but Hostgator is the best low budget host around, they are a huge company with so many websites currently hosted with them. There professionalism and quality of service is why i stick with Hostgator as my web hosting partner.

I just purchased bluehost web hosting a few weeks ago, I have another web hosting - godaddy before bluehost. Godaddy doesn't have live chat for shared web hosting, and it will take 24 hours to set up DNS or domains or database. So i really like bluehost's live chat, they are professional, answered all my questions in time. Well, the simplescript is another service what i like. But the free google adwords coupon i can't use, even i can't see the code because i'm not from US. What i disappointed about bluehost don't support wildcard DNS subdomain.

They are also good at working with you on issues like video conversion issues. They are excellent for new users and experienced users alike. I did not know nothing when I started and they worked with me to help get me started with the installation of my video script. Now I rarely need them, but whenever something comes up I know they will be there with a quick answer.

I must admit that I'm totally satisfied with my hosting company - Webhostingpad. They are the cheapest in the market if you subscribe for 3 years (only $1.99 per month). Well, cheaper price doesn't mean the service is not good. In fact, Webhostingpad team is doing a very well job in terms of server uptime and live support. I have contacted them a couple of times to ask some technical details or enquiries and the technical support personnel are always there to help me.

Till today, I do not have any big issues with my hosting company and I'm confident with their service. Therefore, I really recommended Webhostingpad to you if you are looking for a cheaper but reliable hosting.

Hostgator is famous for its reliability and customer support, and i agree with it. What's impressed me about hostgator was they guarantee a 99.9% up time, if they fail to comply we can ask for 1 month credit to them. What makes hostgator different from other BIG hosting provider is they allow adult site hosting which is a bigplus for those whose niche in their business is adult industry. I’ve hosted one adult site for a year before and I never had any downtime or lag during that 1 year period. I highly recommend everyone choosing their host in hostgator to give it a try, you will never regret choosing hostgator like me.

At first glance, HostGator is not impressive. They have a generic web-site, a logo with a lame slogan – “we eat up the competition” (the alligator in the logo is eating the “H”) (sorry HostGator), ordinary copy on their text, an apparent lack of updates on their site, a standard ModernBill setup, cPanel, and fundamentally everything an average web host has.
Though nothing they do is spectacular or unbelievable, they do what they ought to do. That is, HostGator actually answers their rings, replies to their emails, responds to live chat requests, doesn’t rip you off, and provides quality hosting.

3. Very large market share - All webmasters must need hosting right. All online businesses would need to buy hosting as well. Then sell the odd job hosting is having a very..very much consumers.
4. Hostgator is a world-class hosting provider and has been trusted by the 2.5 million consumers in the world. included me of course :) for me Hostgator is the most Powerful Web Hosting Provided ever!

Web Host: iPage June 7th, 2010
Posted By: Yousuf Ahmed - http://www.hyipsitereview.com
I have 5 different websites hosted on ipage.com. If the question is price, you may choose Ipage. But, i am not happy about their hosting 100%. I like ipage because of price & they provide all unlimited facilities with a free domain for life time. But, I am not happy about the hosting quality. It's not like other high grade hosting companies. If your site gets attacked, they will suspend your site without notification. After the suspension, they will inform you. But, hostgator never does it like this. Other than that ipage.com's price is really reasonable and the quality is not so poor. So, you may choose ipage. Because, the downtime is not high.

Well I have been using hostgator shared hosting for around a month now. The service is good however there are lots restrictions. I'm on a baby plan which is unlimited bandwidth. However real in real its not. I got a mail from support within a week to upgrade my plan to VPS. However i did not and just tweaked my site a little and it worked. Well one more thing they don't allow heavy resource using scripts also. The Support is great and very fast. Overall its good for startup sites but I wont recommend it for huge sites.

Web Host: InMotion Hosting May 23rd, 2010
Posted By: Rob McKinnon - http://www.graphicalinsight.com
Inmotion Hosting has been my fave host since 2005. I have used many web hosts bc I am a web developer. Many times I have had to choose the new hosting plan for the client..

At times I have found a better deal, and have decided to go with someone other than InMotion for hosting some sites... When this rarity has occurred I couldn't have been more displeased with the performance of other hosts. Compared to Inmotion Hosting I have encountered Horrible Problems.....

Please avoid FastDomain, ReadyHost, Host Monster, DreamHost,Homestead, and Daily Razor if you are trying to host a PHP Website. I have found that none compare with the quality of Inmotion...

Having had a poor experience with a previous host, Dual Rack offered to move everything over from our old host, without us having to do anything. The uptime from this host is excellent, but the main reason why we chose this host apart from the great offer and guaranteed uptime, was the customer service. We were promised the best customer service and I believe that is what we have received and what we will continue to receive in the future. Great host, well recommended!

Hello, I've been using hostgator earlier and I must say I was extremely satisfied with it (I had to quit because of money lack). Then, I have found justhost along a promotion and I tried it (still using).
Justhost just have a brilliant support, set of features etc. but I'm not satisfied with the downtime of ftp (http still live and other services) which at a fixed hour 2 pm my time gets down for about 5-10 mins -not on a daily basis, just ocassionaly-. That's all, excepting that it's worth 100% if you're not a guy who connects to ftp extremely frequently.

I initially bought the service 4/5 months back and I had to cancel the service within a week due to change of mind. I thought I need more time to review web hosts. They instantly refund my money as it was within 45 days. After couple of weeks research, I found that they are the best. So I am hosting all my sites with them. Their customer service is superb. I once had a online chat with a customer service rep and they took care of my issue with great care. I highly recommend them.

HI,

We have a simple business web site using Tikiwiki open source package and a very few users. This morning Greengeeks just took our web  site offline because tikiwiki index.php used more than 8% CPU time. There was no warning or no chance for us to look at the site or tikiwiki and to fix it. The site has just gone.

This type of behaviour from a hosting company is unacceptable. They should give a warning as it's not possible for a site owner using open source software to know what all the processes are and how much CPU time they use.

Greengeeks behaviour is totally unacceptable.

When i have a issue, i will just open up the live support chat in their website, and my answer would be resolve as soon as possible. Their uptime is simply marvelous! Instead of being like other webhosting companies that mention they provide 99.9% uptime and did not really keep their word, Bluehost did it! If you sign up you will receive some adwords and yahoo ads credit for free, that is awesome when i first started to build my website.

I am using HostGator for more then 6 Months now after horrible service from Free hosting service providers and I must say it's the best decision for me to move to Paid hosting. HostGator gives me more freedom for my blog and in these 7-8 months I had no problems with them as well as my site always up so it is good for me and my readers. I had some problems with Wordpress installation and their support was excellent during whole problem. I must say that HostGator give importance to their customers and you will get really high quality technical support from them. Price is also excellent for features and service they provide. If you go for long duration and then you will find really great deals.

I have been a HostGator customer for the past 2 and half years now. Time seems to fly but may be this is due to the great service they have provided to me till  now. I have never received a downtime ( I repeat..never..at least not when I was awake even while traveling  in different time zones). Their customer support is super-friendly. It feels like you have a care-taker out there whenever your websites need some care. What fascinated me most is the price I pay for their hosting. It is just $9.95 per month. That is nothing in comparison to the service that I receive. I have used three other reputable companies for hosting my sites but none of them have impressed me like hostgator has. I recommend this company to anyone and everyone. Now, a major plus, they have includes VPS and reseller services too. I don't think I am ever going to switch my hosting. 10/10 to hostgator.

My honest review is that People should really avoid this host if you want to run any kind of web applications like Wordpress, Pligg etc. This host has quite a good uptime and good Customer Support but its main problem is it's features and it's Vdeck control Panel. Even though it provides a lot of advertising credits and a free domain and the price is also cheap, it is really not worth to buy a hosting with this host if you want to use any web application, a business website would do quite good in this host. I say again this Webhost is only good if you are going to host a company or a business website.

Before I was with JustHost, I was quite an inexperienced webmaster, with only two past hosts (HostGator, and GoDaddy), neither meeting my standards, I decided to venture off. JustHost was the best I've found.

The support was something I saw immediately good. As with any host, I had a few teething problems and needed some help getting used to my account. Waiting no more than two minutes each time on the Live Chat, and you've got a real person talking to you, with loads of experience... How great!

I mainly use my hosting there as a test bed, but do also run some sites there which JustHost suites perfectly for my needs.

Sure JustHost has it's downsides, it's classed as an "overseller" (where as I think that's not true, JustHost is great), registering a domain with them costs £10/$15, and you can't host certain types of domains with them (.cc for example).

My overall verdict is if you want a great general host, tonnes of space, for only £50/$75 every two years, then JustHost is what you want!

Also, I'm soon to try out JustHost Reseller. I'll be sure to give my verdict on that as well when I get it.

I've been using 247-host.com for nearly a year now. I was a bit cautious when signing up for a years hosting and I was careful to read reviews on various web hosting related sites. Their cPanel is one of the areas which always keeps me attracted and they keep it updated with latest software. I never have to manually install or upgrade any of the website features that I design with. On the bright side, their customer service is always efficient and expedient. They offer loads more that other hosts do not like like money back guarantee and seasonal promotions and affiliate plan, google credits, search engine submission and what not. The price is good, however, the servers arent super fast, a website that has allot of php/mysql going on and with some users u might get problems.

What I really like most is the detail they go into when providing you with assistance. I have always been able to get someone at any time of the day or night and best of all. I recently had an e-mail issue, it was fixed within 10 minutes via e-mail support! That's what I call speedy service! m very glad that I did the research.

Even without a special deal (we're paying the 5.95 a month) how do you beat such a price which includes knowledgeable support either in a chat room (very quick) or by phone (still pretty quick as far as I'm concerned) AND shell access AND php/mysql AND unlimited email addresses with a choice of IMAP or POP (or both at the same time if you'd rather)....

We're very happy with the service.  As we grow our other websites, we'll most likely be moving them from an in house server to hostmonster as well

Webhostingbuzz hosting was down a lot of times. There is no week without a trouble ticket. I am really tired!!! Yesterday they just closed my domain, without notifying me in advance. I received an email from customer support on Sunday. It said in that email, that because of some "spam activity" on my website, my domain has to be shot down for an investigation. I wrote to them right the way,(weekend no phone hours!)and it had been over 20 hours now my website is down, however they never respond! Terrible! They closed my domain without any permission or notification and taking their sweet time now...  Absolutely unacceptable!

Posted By: Chris Kaminski -
Don't even want to go into it. Really bad tech support. A week of going in circles with support and three attempts to cancel. All I can say is stay away.


GreenGeeks.com Representative Response

This is Trey Gardner, CEO of Green Geeks.

I have been in the web hosting business for over 10 years. Unfortunately this reseller has decided to leave our service because of a program called AW Stats. Anyone who has used this program before knows that it is a severely limited web site statistics program that has come with the cPanel control panel for as long as I can remember.

In addition we attempted to keep Chris Kauminiski as a reseller client and we did try several attempts to keep his business when he had requested a refund. Our attempts to keep him as a client stemmed from the fact that we knew he and his clients would be better served if he stayed and used a better stats program. In searching through our tickets and communication with Chris the stats program issue seemed to have been the only complaint by him about our service. Ultimately he decided to go elsewhere and he was refunded.

Let me first say that AW Stats is terrible. It was a terrible program 8 years ago when I would try to use it to analyze the web site traffic of the web hosting company I worked and it has seen virtually no improvements since then. In addition it can take 24 hours for the stats to generate through AW Stats which was communicated to this former client and which is why he had a complaint about the program.

It was this 3rd party program which has issues with statistical updates as the cause for Mr Kauminski’s dissatisfaction.

We also advised Chris as we do with all our clients to use a far superior web site statistics program called Google Analytics. This is by far the best web site statistics program I have ever used and I have been tracking the statistics of web sites since I got into the internet in the 1990's. I have been using analytics now for over 3 years with great satisfaction, this program is free and is provided by Google.

If you were to compare AW Stats to Google Analytics, AW Stats would be the 3 day old cup of Foldger's instant brewed coffee made with unsanitary tap water compared to Analytics which would be the top of the line, mega grande espresso delight you would find at your favorite coffee house.

Unfortunately we could not convince Chris to switch to this far better program. We were sad to see him go and we do wish him well but we do hope that he switches to Analytics instead of AW Stats at some point as that should help alleviate some of his frustration.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Please if you are looking at a good stats program to monitor your web site traffic, please take some time to look at alternatives to find the best program for you. Again I recommend Google’s Analytics which is free.

Thank you,

Trey Gardner

I've been with 247-Host.com.com for some time now and, though its very rare with hosting company customers, so far I'm very happy. Some how I have found their chat support online 24/7 and I personally use it quite a lot. It's satisfying to be able to quickly handle the technical side of hosting my site and remain focused on improving the content. I can say that if 247-Host.com keeps it this way, they have for the past year I'm definitely staying. BTW, I actually tried hosting a couple of sites with some other guys, but I really missed the chat support at 247-Host.com (I am admittedly impatient :-). To me the hosting experience with 247-Host.com is more personal and that extra level of service is easily worth the few extra bucks.

I highly recommend 247-Host.com.

Originally we chose this company because they offered 50% off the first year. As they say, you get what you pay for. The staff have managed to screw up just about every aspect of hosting: billing, MX records, DNS records, backups -- if it's important to you, they've probably screwed it up. Their servers are regularly blacklisted, which means that you can't send mail to any mail servers that rely on blacklist information. It's not uncommon for no one to answer the support telephone number, even after you've waited on hold for 45 minutes. Messages to staff go unanswered, and help tickets routinely take more than a week to receive a cursory answer. Solutions, if they come at all, take much longer. The frontline support staff are pleasant, but are extremely limited in their technical knowledge. They will try to help, but in our experience, often make the problem worse because they don't pay attention to details or they simply don't understand what they're doing. If your problem gets escalated to Level 3 support, you might as well go on vacation because you won't be getting a response for weeks. We stayed with them for a year because we kept thinking that the support couldn't possibly get worse. We were wrong.

Web Host: IXWebHosting August 25th, 2009
Posted By: Ralph -
I just wanted to drop a note to let people know how good IX Web Hosting is and I fully recommend them to anyone new to the game.

I really had no idea how to create a web site and didn't even really know what web hosting was.

I talked to a very smart guy at IX and he walked me through what was going on and even called me back 3 weeks later to see how everything is going.

Thanks

Web Host: 247-Host August 21st, 2009
Posted By: Muneer - http://www.resourcesofnet.com
I have been having reasonable time with them so far. Nothing worth worrying. I got their uptime from http://www.webhostingstuff.com/uptime/247Hostcom.html which is since 2005 and never less than excellent on monthly basis. Also saw them as fastest growing host at http://hostreview.com/webhostaward/200705top10fastestgrowingwebhost.html and decided to go ahead with them. Never thought that it was a bad decision.

Web Host: EliteHost June 29th, 2009
Posted By: Sheilah - http://www.davishypnosis.com

I signed up for their two year plan and paid in advance. Not only did they alter the plan mid-contract, they disabled my account without warning and posted an embarassing message on my three websites. 

The message stated:

"Attention EliteHost customers: Our records indicate that you are on a hosting plan that is no longer available. Due to the downfall in the economy, EliteHost has reorganized it's price plans. We are no longer offering the yearly plans. You will need to convert to a month to month plan to resume your service, regardless of your existing plan with us. (Our terms of service states that we can change price plans at any time.) To re-activate your account on the month-to-month Unlimited plan: Monthly Price:  $5.00 Enter your main Domain Name or cPanel Username below and press the subscribe button to enroll in an automatic paypal subscription payment to EliteHost"

I contacted the BBB to try to work out a deal in which I could access my account for a period of 30 days with the intention of backing up and removing my digital data and products.

They refused, stating "On our terms and conditions that was made available to the consumer multiple times during sign up as well as in our 'welcome' new customer information email, it clearly states that:  ''This agreement represents the complete agreement and understanding between EliteHost and the Customer and supersedes any other written or oral agreement. Upon notice published on its web site, EliteHost may modify these terms and conditions, amplify them, and/or modify the prices, as well as discontinue or change any of the services offered.''

I learned my lesson, stay away from the small hosts and go with someone proven and true.

Web Host: WebHostingPad June 22nd, 2009
Posted By: Richard Power - http://hospedagemdesitesbr.org
This host is great for small niche sites, not only because of the price, but also because it has some nice little features. Things like unlimited databases and the like for only $1.99 is hard to believe. I decided to test this host 8 months ago, as they have a 30 day money back, and I'm very happy with them.

Web Host: HostGator May 29th, 2009
Posted By: Melanie -
I use the "Baby" HostGator account for my SEO niche sites. It was an amazing investment and I was glad to finally get off of Blogger and make the move to WordPress. The "Baby" account allows me to host as many websites as I want as long as I don't exceed my bandwidth and space for $10 a month.

HostGator has one-click install services for things such as WordPress and Drupal. This made the switch very easy and pretty stressfree.

I have experienced no downtime as of yet. The server speed is wonderful.

Web Host: 2Leaf May 29th, 2009
Posted By: Chris -
2Leaf is a great host. I only had downtime once when they were changing servers and they warned me beforehand. The speed is great and it is unmetered so I don't worry about using up my bandwidth. Even though I never met the limits in my previous hosts it is still nice to know I won't be cut off or charged more if I get on Digg or something. I've only had to contact their support once, but they responded within minutes. I was quite impressed. Much better than 1and1, WebHostingPad, and Cirtex, the three other hosts I have tried.

Web Host: vexxhost May 9th, 2009
Posted By: Dr Cohen - http://www.healthiest-website.com
Even with MSSmarttags parsing code in the HEAD section, VEXXHOST still manages to hijack the page with MS (so-called) SmartTags, effectively stealing your audience. We have dozens of accounts with 32 hosts for our hundreds of large websites, and VEXXHOST is one of the remarkably few in our 12 years of hosting that scores an overall ZERO rating because of this.

We DO recommend Bluehost, Westnic, FatCow, 1and1, even GoDaddy, despite all the dirty things that GoDaddy does. Their hosting servers are fast and generally reliable. VEXXHOST will not be forgiven because they deny it, although the proof is right there in plain site/sight... until we move to a new host this week.

Web Host: NEPA Web Hosting March 26th, 2009
Posted By: Mark Burgus - http://www.giftsforthebirds.com
I needed to start selling online but didn't know where to get started finding an affordable ecommerce solution. NEPA WebHosting & Design (www.nepawebhosting.com) was definitly the right choice. Their friendly support helped me setup a package that was right for me. It's been over a year since i've been with them and I am very happy. They designed my ecommerce web site, provided me with a great shopping cart, and now market my web site to the search engines. All in all it is becoming an awesome success story and I would recommend NEPA WebHosting & Design to any first time ecommerce user looking for an affordable ecommerce solution. Thanks NEPA you really helped me!

Web Host: Hosting Photography March 25th, 2009
Posted By: Richard Ham - http://www.wyevalleyevents.co.uk
It took me some time and a lot of personal recommendations from pro photographers to find these guys. Been with them for a year now and they are superb. Not often in todays climate that you find a company that not only does what it says on the tin, but is serious about providing an excellent customer experience.

They specialise in hosting photographic websites and know their stuff inside out. The support is lightning fast and I've yet to find a problem (usually of my own making) that these guys couldn't fix.
If you want value for money from an ethical company then look no further.

I used a discount code with Hosting24 and have been very happy with their help and support.

They gave me a free domain name and have unlimited webspace and data transfer which was important to me as I have millions of visitors per month.

Well recommended

Web Host: 247-Host January 27th, 2009
Posted By: Aized - http://www.unique-links.com.pk
I hosted with 247-host.com for shared hosting as well as reseller hosting before switching to my own dedicated server few months back.
In my 3 years with them I never felt that web hosting has issues in it as well. It was a total peace of mind, comfortable and smooth going. Now that I run my own dedicated server, I realize that the technicians with 247-host were well versed with server configuration and management. They could reach the issue related to database, security, server load management very quick and resolve it even quicker.
Normally they had been responding in 4 to 8 hours which I think is pretty good if the host has large number of customers to tackle. Technical support in term of response as well as know how has been very good with them.
I still cherish my stay with them.

Web Host: PowWeb July 23rd, 2008

Powweb has a great response to start-up issues for beginning web developer. The price for what you get is outstanding: unlimited space and transfer, very useful reports on your site flow, etc. Normal request for help tickets was within hours (you can pay for upgrade). I highly recommend Powwer hosting.

Web Host: U2-Web December 7th, 2007
Posted By: Marc Griffith - http://www.ironimage.com
After a 3+ year run with Apollo Hosting that went from average to nightmarish, culminating with one straight week of downtime and the tech support team unresponsive or casting the blame at us, I vowed to better research our next hosting choice.  I looked over the sea of potential hosting companies, many that placed at the top 99% on customer satisfaction reviews, only to find that many of these companies high %'s were based on only a few reviews.  I began to sort through the litany and stumbled on U2-Web.  This company stood out beyond the rest, not just in their strong rating but in that they appeared to have personally responded to every reviewer no matter what the tenor of the review. The fact that this company cared enough to follow up even with the customer that may have had an issue, told me that they truly cared about ALL customers. I called U2-Web's toll free line and almost immediately got a live person. I spoke with Steven and told him that I needed to get my site and mail up ASAP given the down time caused by my previous hosting company. Contrary to the 24 hr. expectancy, Steven had our site up in 3 hours!  This included the web migration and some copy tweaks.  I have been with U2-Web going on three months now.  Reliability has been 100%. The personal care from Steven and the gang is second-to-none. Yes, we have finally found our hosting home, and  it has a heart.

Web Host: GoDaddy October 23rd, 2007
Posted By: R. Degan - http://www.consumerfirst.com
I am SO disappointed in the GoDaddy Wild West Hosting service.  My site was down for FIVE DAYS due to a GLITCH IN THEIR SYSTEM, and NONE OF THE FIVE support people I talked to provided the correct information or remedy - even telling me to put input bad data NUMEROUS TIMES!!  EVEN AFTER I CORRECTLY TOLD THEM THE PROBLEM!! 

I LOST SEO PLACEMENT, TRAFFIC, and REVENUE as a result, and their entities made no gesture or attempt at easing that pain.  A traffic blazer or something to help get us back on track would have AT LEAST been appropriate. 

To recap:  THE PROBLEM WAS THE FAULT OF THEIR SYSTEM, created at the outset by bad info from their representatives, and perpetuated by a complete lack of understanding of their system and additional erroneous info by the technical personnel I personally spoke with. 

5 DAYS! And now they say they are going to "escalate my service ticket," but it could "take up to 72 hours for resolution!"  What am I paying for?  I will go else where, set-up a new account, and let it propagate for a day - and SAVE MYSELF 2 DAYS! 

SAD SAD SERVICE GODADDY!!!!
