Question by jbunny: What hosting service should I use?
Why do there have to be so many options? Can anyone recommend a host? I’ve been trying to research online to see what people think about different ones, but a lot of these “review” sites look questionable.
I’d like to hear what some actual people think about some of these.
bluehost
hostmonster
lunarpages
hostingpad
Are these the best options out there, are there some I don’t know about? Please help.

When looking for a host there are a few major point of options you must choose from, the cheap hosting is never a way to go.
When you need hosting, you need to choose a host that uses cPanel, and theres no other alternative thats going to sastisfy you more.
Another option is WHM (another project by the cPanel company).
It’s called Web Host Manager, its basically giving YOU access to host OTHER websites for your own purposes.
WHM is typically more expensive.. the less expensive you find online, the crappier the hosting is going to be.
I currently have a membership with ResellerZoom, using there WHM package. There stable 98% of the time (i have a down issue every blue moon). But one major fault I find with them is that there WHM/Cpanel access is rather slow to use, making things more time consuming, but not entirely horrible.
The package runs me about 10$? a month.. and I’m happy because I’m getting more than a bang for my buck.
BlueHost doesnt have cpanel/whm
Hostmonster doesnt have cpanel/whm
Lunarpages – down currently
Hostingpad – has cpanel
If anything.. the cheapest and most efficent I’ve found online, period, is resellerzoom.
That or get your own webserver w/ cpanel/whm installed.
www.getavps.com is a good place. A full (stable server there the fastest virtual servers ive ever seen) with WHM will cost between 35-40$.
And you have the functionality of SSH and using the server for other purposes too.
Whatever suits your fancy, hope this helps.
