Sponsored Post: Web Hosting Choice

December 12th, 2007

Finding a good web host can be a challenge, because there are just so many out there - how are you supposed to pick? One way to choose is through Web Hosting Choice, which lets you put in a few search parameters and it returns matching plans. There are also other good ways to use the site, including the advanced search, which lets you input a bunch of search parameters, and the plans directory, which lets you browse all the hosts that have a particular feature. I’m not sure about the “reseller hosting” button, because that just points you to HostGator, and I know there are a lot of other web hosts that offer reseller plans! In fact, that’s how most hosting directory sites stay afloat - they are actually resellers. I was a little surprised to find that my host, which is a major player on the market, wasn’t in their system at all, and neither are a couple of other hosts that I know of. I’m a little puzzled by their advanced search results, though. I put in for a host that was no more than $10/mo and $0 setup fee, with at least 5GB of space. They returned a few that matched, but they also returned several that were more than $10/mo. On the whole it seems like a pretty good service, though, especially the fact that you can specify a variety of features in the advanced search section.

    Try Epsilon Web Design Hosts, they offer for the price of $4.17/mo: 15 GB Disk Space, 300 GB traffic bandwidth, 3 domains, 30 subdomains, 20 FTP accounts and 20 MySQL Databases. And all that in one packet. You pay 4.17 and you get all these.

    Also registering just a domain without a hosting account, e.g. if you are hosting with someone else but need a new domain, it costs $5 / year.

    That’s a good call, it’s always a good idea to pick a webhost based on a good referral. Otherwise your webhost can just pack up and leave one day and delete all your content off their server. That happened to a blogger friend of mine recently..
