View Full Version : Best host you've used?
mantra 06-25-2002, 12:05 PM I'm sure many people have gone through many hosts in the past. What is the Best Web Host you have used or currently use?
I have been with ********.com and I am pretty much satisfied with them. I also use Acunett, and they are pretty decent as well.
Who is your best host?

mdrussell 06-25-2002, 02:02 PM Errr, Toasty has no link to his company in his sig, nor does he mention his company. I think he was joking....

secludo 06-25-2002, 02:19 PM Currently I use MCHost, but I haven't been with them long enough to say that they are the BEST I've ever had. I still stick with OLM.net, they were a GREAT host, and I will promote them in any way I can! Not like their stupid magazine ads are or anything :)
Definitely chatcircuit.net. I've been through the ringer with Web hosts in the past. Horrible, horrible experiences to report.
I've had no downtime and personal, speedy service with chatcircuit. They seem to take good care of their customers...I'm living proof!
TheMMIz 06-25-2002, 04:18 PM Ive been with VenturesOnline.com for 10 months and think they offer the best overall service.
AffordableHost.com also offers a quality service, and uptime is great.
I have accounts with VenturesOnline, AffordableHost, ValuableHost, CyberWings, and just opened one with EarHost, and think of them all VenturesOnline.com is the best :)
StarGate 06-25-2002, 04:34 PM Best host I ever used was www.delphicomp.com

Tell me more about this bot you made that goes to WHT and promotes hostnexus in any good host threads:rolleyes:
nelix 06-26-2002, 07:36 AM no bots, no tricks... just one extremely happy customer:D :D :D
Anarchy-Host 06-26-2002, 11:59 AM I recommend Either Vibehost.com If you are looking for a linux server or adehost.com if your looking for a win2k server.
I have used HostRocket.com and they suck...they completely ignored my tech requests at the end. I am at Jatol.com now and I LOVE those guys. Great uptime, speed, tech support/customer service. So persoanlly I like http://www.Jatol.com
ADEhost 06-26-2002, 07:31 PM Originally posted by Anarchy-Host

I like it when someone says something nice about me, it's nice to know that I'm doning a good job. ( maybe one day I will do a great job and then the world will know about me )

tomseeds 06-28-2002, 08:40 AM Netfirms.com has the best approach for most general website hosting needs. What I really like is when you regisiter a domain with them you get hosting for free (http://www.netfirms.com).
When you want to move up, their paid hosting is only $5 a month.
If you are paying only $5/month for hosting, you want to make
sure you are hosting with someone who can actaully maintain their service.
dgessler 06-28-2002, 10:51 PM My hosts I've been with and have been very pleased with thier services /support:
www.hostingdirect.net
www.alwayswebhosting.com

Mester 06-30-2002, 01:46 AM phenominet.com - cheap cogent bandwidth but its never down

CritticAge 06-30-2002, 02:35 AM I am pretty new to being hosted but the best 2 so far are
www.brightlightwebsites.com
www.jatol.com
I have know the owner of BLWS for a while so I get good support ect and Jatol offered to sponsor one of my sites so they must be good :D They help me out with everything I have needed, havnt ever seen their servers down and havnt heard anything bad about them.

bruce1234at 07-01-2002, 01:19 AM my site is hosted with www.hostworkz.com and i have been very happy with them so far. no complaints!!
conma2cang 07-01-2002, 01:56 AM www.jatol.com!
best so far for me!
cgiGeek 07-01-2002, 01:36 PM anaserve.com when Steve worked there, that rocked!!!!!
Studio224 07-01-2002, 01:55 PM Webxess have hosted me for 2 years without any problem...
My favorite was Hostpro, but they're Interland now :( We had a great 2 years with them on a semi-dedicated server. GREAT service and support. But then it became horrible Interl....
Now I prefer Hostway. :)
NOcyberwings 07-01-2002, 07:43 PM Good experiences with:
affordablehost.com
and
eryxma.com
but avoid Cyberwings like the plague!
rbacal 09-06-2002, 02:12 AM Futurequest.com . Been with them for several years, incredible reliability, and they protect their servers. Not cheap, not really full featured for the lower cost packages.
I keep wanting to go elsewhere to save money, but then again, what's perfect reliability worth?
Onture 09-06-2002, 02:53 AM Netacore.com :cool:
www.amen.uk.com : best support
tirins 09-06-2002, 09:41 AM Guys thank you all for your posts. It has been a great pleasure to pay attention to my question.
Thanx
nvphone 09-06-2002, 09:58 AM http://focalhosting.com/
Have had great support with them.
Fair people
Something you do not see much of anymore: They are also honest!
choose another name 09-06-2002, 10:21 AM I've been with HOSTWAY.COM for a long while (until recently).
They are EXTREMELY reliable, I can honestly say I've NEVER had any downtime that was attributable to them, for the 18 month while I was with them.
Whenever I've had downtime, it's always been an issue with my ISP, meaning I can't access other websites at that time either.
So HOSTWAY.COM get A++ for reliability from me.
Support-wise, they answer emails within a few hours, with I think is good enough.
And the're not going to shut up shop overnight. They've been around since the internet's "Year DOT" and they have over 100,000 customers.
The only thing is, they're fairly expensive when compared to smaller hosts.
And they DON'T include things like MySQL in their base packages, like other hosts do. You have to pay extra for MySQL.
That's why I've switched away from them now, I want to incorporate MySQL into my website, but I don't want to pay a fortune for it.
However if your needs are simple, and you don't mind paying a bit extra, I can highly recommend HOSTWAY.COM for reliability.
choose another name 09-06-2002, 10:32 AM ... I've now switched to CWI Hosting (cwihosting.com)
Unfortunately I only discovered this forum AFTER I'd already jumped in the deep-end and signed up with them.
When I did a search on them in this forum, my stomach churned at all the negative feedback I saw about them !!
Is there ANYONE out there who can put my nerves at rest, and put their hand-on-their-heart and proudly declare that CWI Hosting is the BEST HOST they've ever used ??
Please ... anyone ... even if you're just BS'ing me, it'll still make me feel more at ease !!
keith70 09-06-2002, 10:57 AM All thumbs up for Matrixreseller.com :D

I'd like to retract my statement about earhost being good.
Phenominet.com is the only host I've ever had that I've been fully happy with :)
Terry 09-07-2002, 02:07 AM tera-byte for me...they've been nothing but professional. great service and support. i've got no doubts about them.

lpguitars 09-07-2002, 09:28 AM Yes, Tera-Byte is not a bad host for the money. I'll tell you I recently helped some folks boot up a server at rackshack and I must say they exceeded my expectations. VisionHosting.net is solid if you are looking for a host with "big company" resources and "small company" client service. - By "small company" I mean good - like personalized service.
astraler2k 09-07-2002, 09:48 AM I think best www.1uhost.com
NickMahon 09-07-2002, 10:25 AM Someone's been digging.
