Till now,I cant find a hosting service like hostiva,their only problem is their bandwidth,but everything is great,they have the best set of features and the best control panel.If anyone knows where I can get the same set of features for a good price especially the multipile domains and that u can delete ur domains and replace them anytime,that will be great.

Sorry hostiva, u were good,but u did a very BIG mistake by lowering that much bandwith.... :erm:

They aren't _that_ hard to find.

www.venturesonline.com
www.hostmatters.com

They seem pretty reputable, there are more, but these are kind of the most mentioned ones.

Compared to the above mentioned hosts, I should say aletiahost offers better value for your money.

I'm hosted with http://www.downtownhost.com and I'm sure they have a package to suit you. I've been running band websites for about 4 years now and this is easily the best service I've had, bandwidth, support, control panel, everything.

If there was a perfect webhost, everyone'd join 'em. Given the variety of opinions, it seems likely that every host has it's positives and negatives.

It, often times, takes investigation and trial and error before finding the host that's right for you.
You could probably find some hosts that people would recommend that are similar to Hostiva. But that doesn't necessarily mean they would work that well for you.
All you can do is, compile your list, research them, and take your best shot.

well, if you just need a good host, I use AffordableHost.com and they are just great. The bandwidth is not very high, but everything else is good.

With the number of hosts out there, the chance of everyone finding one host is very small.... it's also more of chance and luck with everyone....

Most host do try to stay in business and serve their customers. So as long as the 'service level' is acceptable, I guess most people will be happy enough to stay or even recommend it to others.... It is always a painful process to move (files, email accounts, sql, downtime, etc).

I guess if you get to the point that you dislike your current host, then it's time to move, if they won't change... most hosts recommended here are good, even though I might not have experience with every single one of them.
