Web Hosting Reviews - Read Them
Online - - Posted on November, 18 at 8:18 pm
I’m pretty satisfied with my current host, Hostgator, especially since I upgraded my account not that long ago, so I have even more capabilities, but that’s not to say I don’t keep my eyes peeled regardless. It’s really kind of strange how one can hear nothing but good things about a place, and then WHAM!, suddenly every one is jumping ship. Is it because the users are panicking over a goof-up instead of waiting it out or is it that the incident was the proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back?
It’s for that reason that I tend to frequent a lot of different sites that offer web hosting reviews. I once was at a host that, initially, seemed too good to be true. Sadly, they were. My so-called 98% uptime was more like 98% downtime, I got double-billed, and then I couldn’t even really talk about the experiance at a message board, that I frequented, for advice because the owners of the hosting service started stalking me. I was ever so glad to move.
After that, I learned my lesson. Read the reviews, you’ll find all the complaints, you’ll hear the compliments as well. You’ll get an idea of how the system works and how the people are before you even purchase anything. That’s the good part.
My reason for continuing to check and keep up to date is simple, I never know when something might go belly up. I like having an idea of what different hosts have to offer and WebHostingGeeks.com makes it fairly easy to find what you want to know about various hosts. They offer up their own “Top 10″ list, as well as list the various webhosts by “best in category” as well. This allows you to find the web host you want that offers the best service in an area of particular interest to you. For example, looking for a good blog host? According to WHG.com, the best blog host is Bluehost.com. They back this up with stats, monitoring information and a bunch of other pertinent information. But most importantly, you can find real customer reviews too. Those always show you what can be hidden behind a stylish design and fancy statistics.

I use Hostgator as well, and I’m very satisfied with them, but I’ve been in the situation of horrible hosting a few times. Sometimes the problems start when the company changes hands. A couple of my old hosts aren’t even open anymore because they changed hands so many times!
I have jumped the ship! Well, I moved to a new host. You can always find a new place to call home
I love http://www.nearlyfreespeech.net. Been with them for a while now, and haven’t had more than a few minutes of downtime.
They don’t show up on most toplists because they don’t offer plans and they don’t have an affiliate program. Its a little to swallow, but after I moved all my hosting to them I’ve saved quite a bit.
