Shared hosting?

lezinterracial · 2013-07-30, 03:58 AM

Researching shared hosting services. Just looking now. Any suggestions?

I'm with HG, but they moved to Bluehost servers in Utah about a week ago. Seems things are moving slower and noticed some downtime yesterdayy, Something that I never noticed before.

So just wanted to see what you guys got. I see GoDaddy sucks.

Haven't used shared hosting in many years so really don't know who to recommend. I do know that you don't want GoDaddy hosting though. If you ever want your own box Colo-Cation Hosting is who to use.

Thanks Cleo. If I ever get the traffic and start making money, I will look into a dedicated server. Though I am not holding my breath.

I've been hosting with A1 Web Solutions for years. I started with a shared account and upgraded over the years.

Also M3 Server, they are a sponsor on this board, does shared hosting. I was with them a very long time ago and they are good people.

I have been 17 years with Webair and always been very satisfied. I would not hesitate to recommand them!

Maybe not to a complete first-timer, but generally speaking I would suggest a VPS (not VPN) rather than shared hosting. Many of the benefits of a dedicated host at much cheaper prices. Although the costs are in most cases considerably higher if you only have a limited budget, you do get what you pay for in a host.

If you're on a shared host with 5 or even 50 other users and a few of them get listed on large traffic sites, all of your sites will suffer. I do understand there is a place for them, but I would not personally host any mission critical websites on a shared host - then again when I earned money I always opted for stability over simple affordability.

Hosting is getting ridiculously cheap these days, then again, apart from niches without much of a user base, hence any real chance to make a site in that niche very profitable, is there any search term you could put into Google or Bing without having a tube site, torrent page, forums with links to storage lockers, evem TGP's or MGPs with direct downloads of full length, high quality porn? (I don't search any more, but I am including all of the mostly spammy, but still highly visible sites such as tube search engines, torrent search engines, adult forum search engines etc.)

I would also advise against using a mainstream host for adult, unless your websites are real crossovers that wouldn't violate any terms, however I'd still recommend a respected adult host simply because they're usually cheaper and a lot less likely to shitcan you (or steal your domain in GoDaddy's case) because they don't agree with the content of your website.

Thanks for all the leads. Hostgator is looking better now, So hopefully I will be able to stick with them for a while.
