Cheap web hosting is easy to get. Getting affordable, reliable web hosting that meets your web site’s requirements is a maze filled with poor choices and misleading sales pitches. A company in the web hosting business has the potential to make a great deal of money. This leads the unscrupulous into making exaggerated claims with their offers. Only a close, educated reading of Terms of Service (TOS) and Acceptable Use Policies (AUP) can decode these claims into realistic expectations.
This site will provide you with what I consider a reasonable starting point. All of the sites listed here are pre-screened based on reviews and recommendations by users of this site, friends and associates. Each site is subjected to the same unbiased objective analysis as well as subjective reviews of the user experience.
If you want reliable hosting that does not cost too much, I hope you will consider using this guide in your considerations. I have developed my own testing methodology based on industry standard tests as well as my own custom built solution. My background as both a testing engineer and a programmer ensure that I at least have some idea of what I am doing.
Please feel free to contact me if you would like to add your own feedback about a specific hosting provider or have any other questions about the site.
Thank you for visiting,
