I don't know where else to put this topic. I looked through the list and just didn't see anything so I'll leave it to the moderators to move this if it is in the wrong place

Anyway, I am finally earning more income and I want to invest in a decent webhost, not expensive, still can't afford expensive. But not freeeeeeeee!! I have just beatin myself to death with free hosting sites and I am frankly, sick of them. In this particular case, I have gotten exactly what I paid for, lol! So could I get a few reviews on decent hosting sites where I can use my own sitebuilding software(dreamweaver)?

Thank you much and if you only have opinions, that's ok too. I mean not "first-hand" experience with a host Denise

Hi,

I host all my websites with hostgator , they have a very good and professional support staff and they are available through chat 24/24

I've been with them about 3 years now, no problems with any of my clients. I own 2 reseller servers and one shared .

Good luck

I also recommend Hostgator. I'm more than impressed with them and their customer service has always been very responsive.

I use Hostgator also. The cpanel is easy to use and if you get stuck, the customer support is awesome. I've called direct and used chat and they are both great.

I also recommend Hostgator. When I bought my first account, I used mixcoupons.com to get it for only $0.01 in my first month.

I have used Host Excellence, Host Gator, LunarPages, and a bunch of others. They are all about the same. If you have low to medium traffic they seem to be okay.

HostGator is well known, but if you spike your traffic they will shut off your sites with no notice. This is true of a lot of shared hosts.

If you have more than 5 sites I'd look for Reseller Hosting. HostGators offers that as well with the same Caveat.

Hosts like Rochen and Dotable are a step above in service and quality.

Hostgator sent me an email when I reach my limit. They sent a warning but for 24 hours and I've only seen the email after 48 hours. If you didn't respond then they will shut it down but it's not true because I opened the email after 48 and they didn't close my account. I call the support and ask what to do then they thanking me for responding.

That's one example that worked out. I know of several that have not. And I travel and I am often not available within 24-48 hours.

So for me I choose reliable hosting I can trust with a zillion times better support and for not that much more money.

Until you are on the wrong end of a HostGator shut down you can't understand what it can do to your business. But most people here are not running full time businesses or making enough to really hurt. I said most, but not all.

And I still use HostGator, but not for anything really critical. There is no way I would trust them for any of my sites that really make money. I can say this because I've used so many different hosts and been disappointed with most of them. Shared hosting is challenging.

Hi Denise,

I have used Aplus and I'm very happy with them

Hello.. if you are looking for cheap yet reliable hosting then justhost.com can be a good option. I have recently changed my webhosting service provider to justhost. The reason I said it is cheap is because I have 50% off coupon code. However bluehost and hostgator companies are the best as far as i have discussed with my friends.

I would avoid justhost.com like the plague. They actually misled people even on their own website. I got conned by them.

Just browse around on justhost.com for a few minutes and try to close the site. You will get a popup on how they are offering you 20%, 25%, 50% off.

But once you signed up, the discount was never applied. I tried to work with them and they had multitude of excuses ranging from the prices are not for USA, etc.

They engaged in bait-and-switch tactics. I have reported them to the FTC.

My simple advice is – avoid GoDaddy – most complicated thing in this life!

kabong

I agree with you bro. I recommend hostgator, even the $10 is enough for multiple domains. If someone of you focused on outsourcing then choosing reseller account is the best choice unless you have thousands of domains then dedicated or VPS is better.
