Been with Omnis Network for a few months now.  I was a little nervous since this was my first website, but Omnis has made everything pretty easy for me.  It helps that their tech support is always there and is able to answer any question that I have.  Even for a novice like me, they provide technical answers that are easy to understand.  They even have video tutorials that they provide to make it even easier to set up and maintain your website.  User friendly system, polite and helpful technical support, makes Omnis a very good place for people with their first website.

Omnis has been a great hosting company, providing an excellent product and top notch service.  When I was looking for a web hosting company a few years ago, they were my top pick, and they still are my pick for hosting as I create new websites.  They keep things simple by offering only a few different hosting packages, and I have been able to use them for both my online business and my personal websites.  From being around since 1999, that gives me the confidence in knowing that they have history and are likely to be around for a lot longer.  As my websites have changed, and my needs have changed, Omnis has always been able to help me and handle all of them.  Their prices are great and tech support is super.

I have hosted with Host Gator before and have never been disappointed with their service. I have had superb up-time and they are fairly reliable and very stable. I like most off all is how they communicate with you in regards to billing, errors, updates, changes, etc.

I have found their customer service to be a bit unprofessional at times, but I was always able to resolve my issues with them.

They boast an easy to use interface and provide access to systems and database management tools that even a newbie can use easily. The hosting package are affordable and depending on your needs, can be expanded without downtime or loss of data.  They provide free data transfer from package to package upgrades.

I strongly recommend Host Gator as one of the best hosting options.

I have nothing but good things to say about HostGator.  The service is excellent.  When the occasional problem does arise, their support staff is quick to correct the problem while you chat with them. I have never had a problem that has lasted beyond the length of the live support chat session. They are even flexible on payments. I am a freelancer so sometimes paychecks don't arrive when expected and HostGator always works with me to make sure my websites stay online.

If you need the best web hosting company, I can assure you host gator is the best. The quality of the hosting is really A++. Besides, they provide some ad credits, like google adwords credits as well as others. The hosting features are really wonderful. They provide unlimited Emails, Unlimited Databases, unlimited space, unlimited bandwidth & other unlimited facilities.

I've been with Hostgator for last 6 months. I 'm pleasantly surprised with their great support and service. I've been with a stack of hosting companies and none of them were very helpful.. but this team is very responsive to any of my (frequent!) inquiries! They had a downtime I cant remember, t. I got consistent updates by email on exactly what was happening, no excuses, and the problem was solved before I knew it. Every host has downtime, and NONE deal with it that well.

Thanks

Well I have recently switched my host to Hostgator. So far it is quite good for me.
I found them very fast and reliable. I've seen their marketing style is quite aggressive as well.

But I Personally feel it is a really great Host. Earlier I was getting bandwidth problems with my website http://travelspeaks.in and my old web host suspended my website three times. But HostGator works Great for me.

Thanks HostGator!

Web Host: DownTownHost June 30th, 2010
Posted By: David - http://investordavid.com
I am a relatively new customer of DownTownHost (about 2 months plus now), and I have been very impressed by their service, both in terms of uptime and customer care. So far I have not noticed my website being down at any point of time throughout my term, except once where I could not upload somethings into wordpress, though the site could still be accessed at that same time. Furthermore the live chat is online most of the time, and any queries get answered really fast.

For me a webhost needs to have a few things - a good website design, no overselling, good reputation, a live chat button - all these things DownTownHost has. The only thing is that its plans are a bit pricey, unless you buy them in bulk. I got them at a discount though, so all's good :)

I have been a Just Host client since October 2009. I am highly satisfied with their service! To be straight forward they give you what they promise! Never had a problem with neither uptime, web-space or bandwidth! I host one of my main websites there, http://earndomain.com and to be honest in all of my time being a client of JustHost, all I can remember is half an hour of off-time. That is probably a record! They are number one in the world in my opinion and I'm going to stick to them till the end of my online career! Regards to all and Just Host! :)

I have been hosting with Hostgator for just over 2 and a half years now, they've been great so far. Had a few minor problems with billing a few times but apart from that they have been amazing. I have recommended them to a lot of my friends as there support is amazing! There always so quick to get back to you regarding any questions and are very polite on the phone or via 24/7 webchat. I think there value for money is ok i know that there are cheaper hosts around but Hostgator is the best low budget host around, they are a huge company with so many websites currently hosted with them. There professionalism and quality of service is why i stick with Hostgator as my web hosting partner.

I just purchased bluehost web hosting a few weeks ago, I have another web hosting - godaddy before bluehost. Godaddy doesn't have live chat for shared web hosting, and it will take 24 hours to set up DNS or domains or database. So i really like bluehost's live chat, they are professional, answered all my questions in time. Well, the simplescript is another service what i like. But the free google adwords coupon i can't use, even i can't see the code because i'm not from US. What i disappointed about bluehost don't support wildcard DNS subdomain.

I have used Pacifichost for my persoanl and business sites for 2 years now. I like being able to email people I know every year and know I will get a prompt response. They are also good at working with you on issues like video conversion issues. They are excellent for new users and experienced users alike. I did not know nothing when I started and they worked with me to help get me started with the installation of my video script. Now I rarely need them, but whenever something comes up I know they will be there with a quick answer.

iPage is good hosting with better uptime and page loading speed. The only feature i don't like is their control panel and that's possibly because i am used to cpanel. They offer unlimited space and transfer, quick install for my favorite scripts, quick support and ecommerce features are some of the great features.

I must admit that I'm totally satisfied with my hosting company - Webhostingpad. They are the cheapest in the market if you subscribe for 3 years (only $1.99 per month). Well, cheaper price doesn't mean the service is not good. In fact, Webhostingpad team is doing a very well job in terms of server uptime and live support. I have contacted them a couple of times to ask some technical details or enquiries and the technical support personnel are always there to help me.

Till today, I do not have any big issues with my hosting company and I'm confident with their service. Therefore, I really recommended Webhostingpad to you if you are looking for a cheaper but reliable hosting.

Hostgator is famous for its reliability and customer support, and i agree with it. What's impressed me about hostgator was they guarantee a 99.9% up time, if they fail to comply we can ask for 1 month credit to them. What makes hostgator different from other BIG hosting provider is they allow adult site hosting which is a bigplus for those whose niche in their business is adult industry. I’ve hosted one adult site for a year before and I never had any downtime or lag during that 1 year period. I highly recommend everyone choosing their host in hostgator to give it a try, you will never regret choosing hostgator like me.

This is my second host...I am very satisfied with the uptime, support and mainly with cost of their services...one area where I think they need improvement is 'features'...I mean, I am satisfied with the server configurations..but find their control panel features outdated (except few good ones like 'wordpress installation')...it seems to be from 90's and very cumbersome to handle...they need to upgrade it to make it user friendly like other hosting companies provide...JustHost has got a real future!

At first glance, HostGator is not impressive. They have a generic web-site, a logo with a lame slogan – “we eat up the competition” (the alligator in the logo is eating the “H”) (sorry HostGator), ordinary copy on their text, an apparent lack of updates on their site, a standard ModernBill setup, cPanel, and fundamentally everything an average web host has.
Though nothing they do is spectacular or unbelievable, they do what they ought to do. That is, HostGator actually answers their rings, replies to their emails, responds to live chat requests, doesn’t rip you off, and provides quality hosting.

1. Unlimited Hosting
2. 24 / 7 Customer Service - You can ask questions whenever you want and they will be happy to assist you and that's really good service.
3. Very large market share - All webmasters must need hosting right. All online businesses would need to buy hosting as well. Then sell the odd job hosting is having a very..very much consumers.
4. Hostgator is a world-class hosting provider and has been trusted by the 2.5 million consumers in the world. included me of course :) for me Hostgator is the most Powerful Web Hosting Provided ever!

I have 5 different websites hosted on ipage.com. If the question is price, you may choose Ipage. But, i am not happy about their hosting 100%. I like ipage because of price & they provide all unlimited facilities with a free domain for life time. But, I am not happy about the hosting quality. It's not like other high grade hosting companies. If your site gets attacked, they will suspend your site without notification. After the suspension, they will inform you. But, hostgator never does it like this. Other than that ipage.com's price is really reasonable and the quality is not so poor. So, you may choose ipage. Because, the downtime is not high.

Well I have been using hostgator shared hosting for around a month now. The service is good however there are lots restrictions. I'm on a baby plan which is unlimited bandwidth. However real in real its not. I got a mail from support within a week to upgrade my plan to VPS. However i did not and just tweaked my site a little and it worked. Well one more thing they don't allow heavy resource using scripts also. The Support is great and very fast. Overall its good for startup sites but I wont recommend it for huge sites.

Inmotion Hosting has been my fave host since 2005. I have used many web hosts bc I am a web developer. Many times I have had to choose the new hosting plan for the client..

At times I have found a better deal, and have decided to go with someone other than InMotion for hosting some sites... When this rarity has occurred I couldn't have been more displeased with the performance of other hosts. Compared to Inmotion Hosting I have encountered Horrible Problems.....

Please avoid FastDomain, ReadyHost, Host Monster, DreamHost,Homestead, and Daily Razor if you are trying to host a PHP Website. I have found that none compare with the quality of Inmotion...

Hello, I've been using hostgator earlier and I must say I was extremely satisfied with it (I had to quit because of money lack). Then, I have found justhost along a promotion and I tried it (still using).
Justhost just have a brilliant support, set of features etc. but I'm not satisfied with the downtime of ftp (http still live and other services) which at a fixed hour 2 pm my time gets down for about 5-10 mins -not on a daily basis, just ocassionaly-. That's all, excepting that it's worth 100% if you're not a guy who connects to ftp extremely frequently.

I initially bought the service 4/5 months back and I had to cancel the service within a week due to change of mind. I thought I need more time to review web hosts. They instantly refund my money as it was within 45 days. After couple of weeks research, I found that they are the best. So I am hosting all my sites with them. Their customer service is superb. I once had a online chat with a customer service rep and they took care of my issue with great care. I highly recommend them.

HI,

We have a simple business web site using Tikiwiki open source package and a very few users. This morning Greengeeks just took our web  site offline because tikiwiki index.php used more than 8% CPU time. There was no warning or no chance for us to look at the site or tikiwiki and to fix it. The site has just gone.

This type of behaviour from a hosting company is unacceptable. They should give a warning as it's not possible for a site owner using open source software to know what all the processes are and how much CPU time they use.

Greengeeks behaviour is totally unacceptable.

I've been with bluehost for 2 years going 3 years. What makes me a loyal customer to them is because if their 24/7 great customer support. When i have a issue, i will just open up the live support chat in their website, and my answer would be resolve as soon as possible. Their uptime is simply marvelous! Instead of being like other webhosting companies that mention they provide 99.9% uptime and did not really keep their word, Bluehost did it! If you sign up you will receive some adwords and yahoo ads credit for free, that is awesome when i first started to build my website.

I am using HostGator for more then 6 Months now after horrible service from Free hosting service providers and I must say it's the best decision for me to move to Paid hosting. HostGator gives me more freedom for my blog and in these 7-8 months I had no problems with them as well as my site always up so it is good for me and my readers. I had some problems with Wordpress installation and their support was excellent during whole problem. I must say that HostGator give importance to their customers and you will get really high quality technical support from them. Price is also excellent for features and service they provide. If you go for long duration and then you will find really great deals.

Hello,

My name is Sergione. I use hostgator as my webhosting provider for over 2 years. I have many websites hosted with them on a "baby croc" plan. My opinion about hostgator: they are number 1 in shared hosting. That includes: uptime, features, price, and an important one, 24/7 online support (live chat included).

I recommend this webhosting company.

Thank you.

I have been a HostGator customer for the past 2 and half years now. Time seems to fly but may be this is due to the great service they have provided to me till  now. I have never received a downtime ( I repeat..never..at least not when I was awake even while traveling  in different time zones). Their customer support is super-friendly. It feels like you have a care-taker out there whenever your websites need some care. What fascinated me most is the price I pay for their hosting. It is just $9.95 per month. That is nothing in comparison to the service that I receive. I have used three other reputable companies for hosting my sites but none of them have impressed me like hostgator has. I recommend this company to anyone and everyone. Now, a major plus, they have includes VPS and reseller services too. I don't think I am ever going to switch my hosting. 10/10 to hostgator.

My honest review is that People should really avoid this host if you want to run any kind of web applications like Wordpress, Pligg etc. This host has quite a good uptime and good Customer Support but its main problem is it's features and it's Vdeck control Panel. Even though it provides a lot of advertising credits and a free domain and the price is also cheap, it is really not worth to buy a hosting with this host if you want to use any web application, a business website would do quite good in this host. I say again this Webhost is only good if you are going to host a company or a business website.

Before I was with JustHost, I was quite an inexperienced webmaster, with only two past hosts (HostGator, and GoDaddy), neither meeting my standards, I decided to venture off. JustHost was the best I've found.

The support was something I saw immediately good. As with any host, I had a few teething problems and needed some help getting used to my account. Waiting no more than two minutes each time on the Live Chat, and you've got a real person talking to you, with loads of experience... How great!

I mainly use my hosting there as a test bed, but do also run some sites there which JustHost suites perfectly for my needs.

Sure JustHost has it's downsides, it's classed as an "overseller" (where as I think that's not true, JustHost is great), registering a domain with them costs £10/$15, and you can't host certain types of domains with them (.cc for example).

My overall verdict is if you want a great general host, tonnes of space, for only £50/$75 every two years, then JustHost is what you want!

Also, I'm soon to try out JustHost Reseller. I'll be sure to give my verdict on that as well when I get it.

I have been experiencing problems with cpu throttling lately. Even though my site does not receive many visitors. I assume this is caused by another wordpress site i have hosted at the same shared account. I think HM could be better, but for the cheap price you can't expect to get it much more than this.

We purchased two years of service from this company; however, they failed to provide us with the username and password that would allow us to access the account.  After 11 months of chasing them someone from their billing department FINALLY sent us the access information. 

When we asked that they provide us the 24 months of service we paid for, they refused and claimed that their negligence was somehow our fault. 

I wouldn't trust these people to host a Tupperware party.

Even without a special deal (we're paying the 5.95 a month) how do you beat such a price which includes knowledgeable support either in a chat room (very quick) or by phone (still pretty quick as far as I'm concerned) AND shell access AND php/mysql AND unlimited email addresses with a choice of IMAP or POP (or both at the same time if you'd rather)....

We're very happy with the service.  As we grow our other websites, we'll most likely be moving them from an in house server to hostmonster as well

Don't even want to go into it. Really bad tech support. A week of going in circles with support and three attempts to cancel. All I can say is stay away.


GreenGeeks.com Representative Response

This is Trey Gardner, CEO of Green Geeks.

I have been in the web hosting business for over 10 years. Unfortunately this reseller has decided to leave our service because of a program called AW Stats. Anyone who has used this program before knows that it is a severely limited web site statistics program that has come with the cPanel control panel for as long as I can remember.

In addition we attempted to keep Chris Kauminiski as a reseller client and we did try several attempts to keep his business when he had requested a refund. Our attempts to keep him as a client stemmed from the fact that we knew he and his clients would be better served if he stayed and used a better stats program. In searching through our tickets and communication with Chris the stats program issue seemed to have been the only complaint by him about our service. Ultimately he decided to go elsewhere and he was refunded.

Let me first say that AW Stats is terrible. It was a terrible program 8 years ago when I would try to use it to analyze the web site traffic of the web hosting company I worked and it has seen virtually no improvements since then. In addition it can take 24 hours for the stats to generate through AW Stats which was communicated to this former client and which is why he had a complaint about the program.

It was this 3rd party program which has issues with statistical updates as the cause for Mr Kauminski’s dissatisfaction.

We also advised Chris as we do with all our clients to use a far superior web site statistics program called Google Analytics. This is by far the best web site statistics program I have ever used and I have been tracking the statistics of web sites since I got into the internet in the 1990's. I have been using analytics now for over 3 years with great satisfaction, this program is free and is provided by Google.

If you were to compare AW Stats to Google Analytics, AW Stats would be the 3 day old cup of Foldger's instant brewed coffee made with unsanitary tap water compared to Analytics which would be the top of the line, mega grande espresso delight you would find at your favorite coffee house.

Unfortunately we could not convince Chris to switch to this far better program. We were sad to see him go and we do wish him well but we do hope that he switches to Analytics instead of AW Stats at some point as that should help alleviate some of his frustration.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Please if you are looking at a good stats program to monitor your web site traffic, please take some time to look at alternatives to find the best program for you. Again I recommend Google’s Analytics which is free.

Thank you,

Trey Gardner

Originally we chose this company because they offered 50% off the first year. As they say, you get what you pay for. The staff have managed to screw up just about every aspect of hosting: billing, MX records, DNS records, backups -- if it's important to you, they've probably screwed it up. Their servers are regularly blacklisted, which means that you can't send mail to any mail servers that rely on blacklist information. It's not uncommon for no one to answer the support telephone number, even after you've waited on hold for 45 minutes. Messages to staff go unanswered, and help tickets routinely take more than a week to receive a cursory answer. Solutions, if they come at all, take much longer. The frontline support staff are pleasant, but are extremely limited in their technical knowledge. They will try to help, but in our experience, often make the problem worse because they don't pay attention to details or they simply don't understand what they're doing. If your problem gets escalated to Level 3 support, you might as well go on vacation because you won't be getting a response for weeks. We stayed with them for a year because we kept thinking that the support couldn't possibly get worse. We were wrong.

I just wanted to drop a note to let people know how good IX Web Hosting is and I fully recommend them to anyone new to the game.

I really had no idea how to create a web site and didn't even really know what web hosting was.

I talked to a very smart guy at IX and he walked me through what was going on and even called me back 3 weeks later to see how everything is going.

Thanks

This host is great for small niche sites, not only because of the price, but also because it has some nice little features. Things like unlimited databases and the like for only $1.99 is hard to believe. I decided to test this host 8 months ago, as they have a 30 day money back, and I'm very happy with them.

I use the "Baby" HostGator account for my SEO niche sites. It was an amazing investment and I was glad to finally get off of Blogger and make the move to WordPress. The "Baby" account allows me to host as many websites as I want as long as I don't exceed my bandwidth and space for $10 a month.

HostGator has one-click install services for things such as WordPress and Drupal. This made the switch very easy and pretty stressfree.

I have experienced no downtime as of yet. The server speed is wonderful.

I used a discount code with Hosting24 and have been very happy with their help and support.

They gave me a free domain name and have unlimited webspace and data transfer which was important to me as I have millions of visitors per month.

Well recommended
