Your Questions About Web Host Reviews

admin answers:

I would’t go for a web hosting which is less than 3$/month. I recommend hostgator. – great and reliable hosting company, i use them for 3 years and very pleased.

admin answers:

I would recommend www.hosttosucceed.com because they have 100% uptime, and usually reply to e-mail questions within a few hours. Check them out! Very reliable!

I may not be as picky (mean that in a good way!) as you are because I definitely don’t consider myself a “professional” compared to friends who have web design businesses, but we’ve been really happy with Host Excellence. ( https://www.hostexcellence.com/templates/he/v1/affiliate/clickthru.cgi?id=JTcaneel )

There are a ton of paid web hosts out there, and my husband and I exhausted ourselves researching them before making a decision to go with HostExcellence for this site and another one we run. Ultimately, it came down to the fact that we were getting tired and we liked HostExcellence’s plans for mulitple domains and the fact that they had a site builder with tons of customizable templates (many of them do, but some of the good ones on the review lists don’t). My husband doesn’t use the site builder for his — he does his own code. I use the site builder until I’m more proficient on Nvu. We also liked the amount of storage and bandwidth we were given, among other things. I haven’t had a complaint yet, and we’ve been customers since October 2005. They have excellent 24/7 live chat support that helps me all the time with just about any issue you can imagine. Whenever a service has been down (which has only been a few times), it’s either back up before I have a chance to ask about it or it’s resolved before I get off live chat with them. They have a ton of tools at your service, we have more e-mails available than we’ll ever use, and more bandwidth and storage space than we’ve come close to dipping into. They have ftp storage and a really easy thing called webshell that makes it pretty simple to do ftp stuff. Php boards, databases, etc. Are all available. Good luck!

There’s no such thing as “unlimited” resources. Common sense has it that if a provider markets “unlimited” resources, they’re cutting corners elsewhere. Which means you, as a customer, will suffer as a result. Bandwidth costs money. Hardware costs money. Labor costs money!

Anyway, I recommend getting a FULLY MANAGED dedicated server if you’re going to need uptime, reliability, and customer service. They’re not cheap but they’re reliable. You do not want shared hosting since another Website on the same server could cause yours to be unreachable. Also, a security breach on a website on the same shared server could also lead to your website being compromised and hacked.

Cheers,
