Hello Guys,

What would be the best design you ever saw in your life related to hosting ?

Thank you :agree:

Unfortunately, it would never be any site I have personally designed. I am more of a geeky coding guy than a visual design guy. :)

One hosting site design that I thought looked really impressive visually was
http://www.firehost.com/

Hats off to the web designer who developed that site. It looks really sharp.

I like http://mediatemple.net/

firehost comes second but it takes me forever to actually reach there plans to view them. I prefer having buy now easily accessible.

I don't know about "best", but I like this one: http://www.coolhandle.com/
Well organized, easy to read, good "white space".

... not a bad host either, I have an account with them, too. :)

I agree about FireHost. One of the best I've come across.

The best ones I've seen use a lot of fancy graphics and flash. Unfortunately they don't appear to be search-engine friendly because they don't rank very high in SERPs.
You can get around that by designing pages that are different for the SE robots but (at least for Google) many SE's don't like sites that show pages differently based on the visitor.

I would have to agree with steve.

I love Single-Hops!:agree:

Yep we love our Frog Host one even more than the Hawk Host one :)



As for others that firehost one is really sharp yet I've never heard of them. I guess there are just to many web hosts out there.

UnitedHosting (http://www.unitedhosting.co.uk) is one of the best I've seen.

I wouldn't say it's the best, but I do really like it as well :agree:

I'm really like MediaTemple as well, it is very clean and has nice jquery (I think?) tooltips. Wish I could make a design like that!

My all time best design was two stick figures in inappropriate places. After I realized I was the only one laughing I gave up art :)

Wow, lot of great designs. SingleHop.com is a pretty cool themed site.. Personally I have seen a sneak peak of the future Bluehost.com site and I must admit IT IS SHARP, should be released soon!
