Who do you use for a webhost?

[davejas69]

Right now I am using JustHost, my site is currently down for an issue they
said they would address last week. Service is horrible. I just have a basic
package.

Wondering what others are using and what your experiences have been.
Do you also get a huge uptick in traffic if you have a successful app and have
to change plans?

I use HostMCT as it came with free access to MyCodeTeacher.com and was cheap.

I pay $9.99 a month (reseller package), and I have 4 domains on the package. Its a great site, and they have support on most of the day so that you can discuss any errors with them. It's also great value for money.

Check it out here: HostMCT - Reliable Webhosting for personal and small to medium sized businesses..

Friendly word of advice, MCT is going through a take over/buy out. Depending on if the sale goes through or not you might see some outage.

I am using nearlyfreespeech.net. Before I was using fatcow, which was horrible.

I'm currently using Hostmonster, you can find $5.95 a month promos online. Unlimited space, bandwidth. Good speed. Additional domains are cheap at $10 a year.

DO NOT use Fatcow, they're horribly limited. Features are basic, like for a home picture site.
I wrote a short article a while back on my experience with them

Anyone ever use Amazon as a host?

One of my friend is using bluehost.com He hasn't experienced any issues as of now. You may try and check this for better service.

[davejas69]

Thanks for all the input! I think I may try Bluehost

I looked at BlueHost and talked with them but was not impressed with their customer service and ability to handle higher traffic in case my site demands it in the future.

I ended up with HostGator, great customer service and they offer VPS or Dedicated if I out grow my shared hosting with an easy upgrade option and reasonable prices.

i use fatcow.... i've never had a problem.

also ive had a few questions and their live chat feature is really helpful

I use GreenGeeks.com. Have a 3 year subscription paying $4.99 monthly for unlimited everything and CPanel. As a plus, I have been with them since around December and have received absolutely no downtime. You also get a free domain on sign up - which is a plus.

[mochibits]

Hostmonster and Bluehost are basically the same company.

I use Hostmonster for some small sites and SimpleHelix for sites that may get more traffic and I need more reliability.

[dabronx]

I'm using GreenGeeks.com - so far so good. Pretty cheap and easy to use.

[Hercule]

I use Dreamhost. They support SVN !
I used them for 3 years, can't complain. But I've never used them for an high bandwith usage application.

[wilmatan]

Try Goodaddy, I think they're good.

[Newbie123]

I use HostGator. The support is amazing, and if you're uptime isn't 99.9%, then you get a refund. Also, the prices are pretty nice, considering it's managed hosting.

+1. Their CS is great. When I first started using them and had questions I always felt bad for IM'ing them in the middle of the night.

I've used BlueHost in the past but they started throttling my cpu usage. I was being throttled with hardly any users hitting it (around 5 people while my app was in beta).

Since then, I've switched over to a KnownHost VPS and they have been awesome. I run my website, php scripts, and several mysql dbs with no issues at all.

Saw some outage, caused quite a disruption with one of my apps...

Thanks for the warning
