wow - what a loaded question !!!
any host worth their salt will think they are the best...
What I would recommend is to check out the uptime stats of various hosts and to look at hosts with positive review and a history of proven uptime and reliabilitywww.cartika.com

Yes, I do believe in that...
Yes, I do believe in that... I am trying to make it much easier, since everyone is doing a lot of research on "who's the best?" so I asked :-)
Anyway, thanks for you sincere reply, appreciated.

From the wise words of *someone*, "there is no best host, only the best host for you"

As anon-e-mouse stated there is no single host that can be called 'the best'.
You may be able to limit down your choice if you throw in some specifications such as:
disk space/bandwidth usage
platform (linux, windows)
control panel preference
Any other features you would like to have included.
Even with the above information nobody will be able to provide you with the best host but may be able to give some suggestions.

I will just say the same here, there is no one best hosting service. What you want in a hosting company should point you in the right direction.

I too find myself curious about this topic.
I think there is a certain level of compromise when deciding on a webhost because not all of them offer exactly the same features, pricing, server setup, etc.
I'm more interested in knowing what host you use, why you like them and the type of reseller account you have.
Thanks.

Go to: http://www.jubileestallions.org/
In their "Find Reviews" Search box, type in the domain name and...,
1. See what their users had to say.
2. Check the number of negative votes versus positive votes.
Also, go to http://www.webhosting.info/ and check to see if they host a significant number of domains. It will indicate the size of the company.
Also, check http://www.alexa.com/ and see where the host ranks on search engines. This will indicate their popularity, or advertising budget.
Choose based on what matters most to you.

I agree completely, the number itself is highly inaccurate. But you can see when a host has 3 accounts versus a host that has thousands.Last edited by din0; 09-20-2006 at 08:57 PM.

This is pretty much exactly the reason I've asked to hear about who your host is and why you like them. The fact is the only people you can reliably trust are fellow webmasters but everyone seems to be dodging the question for some strange reason.

The best host is a host that "cares about their customers and not how loaded their pockets are " . 24X7 live support doesnt mean anything nor does uptime mean anything, for me personally i care about feeling comfortable and when talking to the host(whatever hosting u choose) you should feel like ur talking to a friend or a family member.And host which doesnt lie about things and is frank and open to their customers.
Regards12+ years -same website , new server [SSD Inside] providing shared/reseller hosting only !
These things we do not provide/offer : Unlimited Storage ! Unlimited Bandwidth ! But Why? Cause, we were unable to put such a large number on our pages, it just would not fit.
So check out the numbers that actually fit >> << the page as well as your budget too !

I agree with that aswell. User experience is A+ benefit. Its always a good feeling to know that your hosting provider is behind you 110% percent. I think that having a good user experience will tremendously grow word of mouth aswell.
