I've been using hosted web services for several years now. I have had experience with just a few web hosting companies. One of them has been great. Another of them was awful.

My last hosting company was Startlogic. I basically went with them because they were cheap and I didn't know anything else. They were good for a while, but soon I noticed some key problem with their services:
  1. email was down (at lest momentarily)almost every week
  2. my website was down almost as often as email
  3. the "backend" of the control pannel was terribly slow
  4. slow downloads and uploads to and from my website
  5. responses from technical support would take 24-28 hours
  6. it was almost impossible to get someone on the phone 1/2 - 2 hour hold times

I eventually decided to make the switch to another company - as long a process that is when you are hosting several website, domain names, and email accounts on your hosting plan. I chose JustHost after reading several reviews online.

JustHost has been just about the inverse of Startlogic's shortcomings. I have been using them for almost a year now and:

  1. I have never noticed email to be down
  2. I have never noticed my website to be down
  3. the backend of the control panel (cpanel) runs fast
  4. Downloads from my website average 5 mbs
  5. Responses by email support usually come within an hour

If you are looking for a good trustworthy place to host your website and maybe email, I recommend JustHost. You can get more information by clicking the following advertisement.
