A typical question:
Whats a reliable reasonably priced web hosting service? My planned website isn’t going to be huge, just promoting something and will probably have a few videos. Give me your experience! Thanks.

To answer your query, here are 7 qualities to look for in a good web hosting. An excellent hosting:
- has friendly Live Chat to help you with your query,
- gives unlimited diskspace,
- offers no limit on bandwidth,
- gives multiple add-on domains,
- has friendly Site Builder with thousands of unique templates,
- has QuickInstall to quickly install apps like WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, OSCommerce, ZenCart and more
- can be easily upgraded to VPS or one of the best dedicated server plans if and when your business require.

Hostgator Complaints
No web hosting service is perfect. Some complaints about Hostgator plans include:
- No free domain name included – but you can easily get a domain name from the best domain registrar such as Godaddy or Namecheap for $10 or less. Would you agree that a website is not complete without a domain name?
- You need to pay full price after your first invoice – well, they need to make money too and all the support and great service do come with a cost. It is like they say, you get what you pay for.
If you are still not sure if HG is right for you, or you have specific query about anything at all, try the Live Chat at HG. They are fast and knowledgeable. Just ask and you shall receive.

Hi , I think I can help you choose the best web hosting.
Well there is Hostgator , google host , Yahoo host , Dream host , Network solutions , Justone host , Godaddy host , blue host and Lots more but the Most Recommended one is Network Juice Hosting ; NetworkJuiceHosting.com
I think They now offer plans starting around $0.99/mo for a great amount of diskspace plus everything else unlimited. Plus they’ve manage to keep up 99% Uptime.
They have all features such as PHP5, java ,Cpanel , Fantastico ( allows you to auto install Blogging systems and CMS portals without wasting time) , Cron Job , Apache ,Unlimited Dadabase , ftp accounts and much more. Basically EVERYTHING! is supported. Also it comes with something called RVS site builder. You can use it when you want too. It Helps you build websites using only 2 skills : point and click. Lol , or you can upload your own files , scripts and ect. How ever you want to run or build your site.
There are other affordable and great plans as well , in NetworkJuiceHosting.com. I hope this company never change to tell you the truth bro.
Hostgator.com is also a great host , but there Uptime time is not so good. Also , customer service is very poor , Not to many features are supported.
Google.com not so sure , But i know there’s lots of files they do not support , no Cpanel , and i don’t know how come , but they have been receiving downtimes lately in their host servers.
Yahoo , let me just say it’s the worst web host ever ,you can’t even host the amount of domains you want to host . Including FatCow.com. The downtime is way to much , and many files are un-compatible in fatcow for some reason.
Network Solutions , Is by far the MOST THEFT out of all web host in the world wide web. They tend to theft your domain registered on their registrar and your files , also they do not give you the full Web Disk Space you have ordered. Also THEY ARE WAY TOO Over priced for the non-quality hosting they offer.
One.com , is all the way in the Uk or england something like that. I’m a web programmer and I used to have clients using this webhosting company. Like 2 of them were using it. They told me they didn’t like it at all , and I think i’ll say the same thing. You’ll only get one database per order. So this allows your mysql database corrupt due to too many different tables belonging to different sites of yours are in one Database. Also , do not not offer you an Online Web panel such as Cpanel , Direct Admin or etc. Only your FTP. Yeah Tuff.
To buy a domain , the most recommended site is godaddy , but not for it’s hosting!! I Tell you !!!.
For a Great Affordable web host with maximum features and quality , the most recommended web host is http://www.NetworkJuiceHosting.com . ; Network Juice Hosting.
You are getting your answers from an expert , and yes I have tried all these web host.
That’s all I got to say mate 😉

Godaddy.com
you should enter in the code X99, you’ll pay less that way. or so I’ve been told.
Eric says
No, GoDaddy is way too expensive. We did a project for finding web hosting sources that provides a lot for little money.
If you’re starting off small, I would suggest JustHost.

I would recommend http://www.WebPricedRight.com
They have 24/7 free support and some of the best prices I’ve found. They also have great hosting deals and I’ve never had an issue with down time.
I have used over half a dozen companies over the last 9 years. I am a Graphic Designer and I service over 20 clients. Most of the service providers that I used promised the world but just raised their prices the next year. For the last 3 years I have been working with Web Priced Right. I wasn’t sure at first because their prices were relatively low compared to other options out there. It was the best decision I’ve ever made!
I am currently hosting over 40 websites with them and never once have had a second of down time. They have never raised their prices on me and the tech support is unreal. They have some of the most experienced and knowledgeable technical staff that I have ever worked with. In fact this is the reason that I started this blog…
Never in all my years have I had a tech go out of his/her way to make sure that I was taken care of. It is truly a level of support that is unsurpassed in this industry. I whole-heartedly recommend Web Priced Right to you and look forward to hearing your feedback.

A three months ago, i hosted my website at Fat Cow. I think they are honest. Because,I’m very satisfied with their customer support, features, server availability, price. So, i suggest to try their service.
Best Of Luck!

Their basic plan starts at $!.99 a month. You will have a hard time beating that price anywhere and they back everything up with a 30 day money back guarantee!!
