I have been having some technical issues here lately with the host of this site. I don’t know what the exact problems are but a few people have been telling me the site is down and then I am told that the host is down.
I am thinking of moving to a new host and wanted to find a web host rating site that could help me to make a good decision. I finally found such a site and although I will be leaving the final decision to my support person I wanted to see what other people were saying about some of the top web hosting providers.
I found that the site was easy to navigate and there were links to the various companies available from the main site. There are also a few recent reviews from customers, which give details of their experiences with the companies. The experiences are good and bad so I think there is not such an element of bias in the reviews.
I will definitely take a closer look at all the user reviews here in order to be more knowledgable when I do get suggestions for my new host.
Do YOU have a favorite host that you would recommend to me?
I have been using surpasshosting.com for my blog and tech site for a few years now and have generally been happy. They have fast turnaround for ticket response and their prices are pretty good for what they offer. I think its worth checking out…
Thanks for the tip…I will let me tech person know.
Unfortunately, in my experience, every host site has its problems. Dreamhost, Bluehost, and Lunar Pages are all pretty similar in that they satisfy some customers very much and leave others gnashing their teeth in anger. If a host isn’t working for you, then definitely switch…but just remember when you’re looking at user-reviews that every host gives someone a bad experience. *sigh*
(if there was a perfect one, I’d switch right away!)
I have had great luck with Hostgator.com, I currently have around 100 websites and blogs hosted with them and have not once been upset with their service. Their support is second to none in my opinion. My business partner has a Justhost account as well as a couple of Hostgator accounts, and when the Justhost account has an issue with a site using too many resources, they shut the entire account down. This means we lose big money from multiple sites being penalized for the overuse of resources on just one site. Hostgator just shuts down the one site until we can fix the problem(s), then immediately gets it back online once the issues are resolved. I wholeheartedly recommend Hostgator.
