Is there any difference in hosting companies?

Don't they all just do the same thing?

What's the big deal?

I know the difference between Free Hosts and Pay Hosts.

But other than that, there isn't any other difference.

When it comes to infrastructure, companies can only purchase their connectivity from a limited number of companies - so yeah, there are definitely fewer choices, which means a lot of companies use bandwidth from the same place.

Ultimately, it comes down to:

a) what the company does with this bandwidth [do they buy multiple redundant connections, or just buy one and hope it doesn't go down?]

b) what the company does with the hardware connected to the bandwidth [are machines properly configured? how many accounts on one server? etc. etc.]

c) value-added services to complement their bandwidth: security, support, etc. Lotsa companies offer tons of stuff, some don't offer anything.

Hosting companies are ALMOST all the same. Once you've been in the business for a few years you do realize though it is important to find one of those $24.99/month "unlimited BW" plans.

WHEWEEE the money you will save. Need any recommendations?
