Best and Worst Hosting Companies
Hi Guys,
I'm in the market for new hosting. Would appreciate some feedback on your best hosting company experiences so that I consider those folks when making a decision. Would appreciate even more if you share your worst hosting company experiences, Cliffnotes versions please, so that I don't waste my time with those since moving hosting is such an undertaking. Most important thing is the Tech Support, 2nd would be pricing. No plugging your buddies company please, he he he! I am looking for a few folks to share actual true stories, best and worst experiences to help me make a better decision. I appreciate your feedback Thanks! Leslie |

I have a server co-located at www.nakedhosting.com , have used them for like 6 years now I think, never any problems, very good and fast tech support. I would recommend them, I do not know how their pricing stacks up against anyone else since I have not researched anyone else, no need to when I dont have any reason to move.

From personal experience,
Best: m3server.com. Yes, I rep them, but am also a customer. Worst: Hivelocity. For my future amusement, I've saved every bit of every email trail from every nightmare encountered my few months there. |

Webair- Tech support is average but their speeds aren't the best.
Realitychecknetworks- Tech support is decent and I haven't had any problems with them so far jupiterhosting & splitinfinity- I've heard mixed stories about them. If price is not really a concern I would go with swiftwill and nationalnet.

In my experience
Best: Webair (Mike will take care of you and go the extra mile for you) Worst: Easily reliablehosting.com/xxxwebhosting.com. The level of incompetance, ignorance and downtime there blew me away.

I've had my share of problems with webair.
NationalNet comes first... (pretty much every BIG playa will agree, most of them are using them) but you gotta pay the price there. |

Leslie in all my years I have not come across someone who has not gone as far and above to make sure I am taken care then Split Infinity Chris without even thinking put his personal time aside and took great care of me.
He went out of his pocket and his way to hop a plane and take care of a very damaging situation. I can honestly say if you want someone who is going to fully take care of you, and make you feel like you are part of the family then you should very much consider Split Infinity. You can read all about what they did for me here: https://gfy.com/fucking-around-and-business-discussion/550164-1500-miles-traveled-days-sleep-choose-split-infinity.html

In no particular order, what I'd say are best overall...
Phatservers -- I've known Moose for years, and he's never failed to come through for anything quickly. Jupiter - Poppy, Ray and now KC over there, you can't go wrong at all. Cavecreek - always have the love for the gang over there, I spent two years seeing firsthand how they run their business. WebAir -- one of my clients is using them now and has nothing but good things to say about them ISPrime -- another great group that works hard on their business MojoHost -- Brads easily accessible and goes out of his way to make things work Natnet is of course someone you'd want to compare prices, plans and uptime against anyone else. |

In my experience, Techie Media has been my host of choice simply because they know what they're doing and have AWESOME tech support. It's nice to know that they hire guys who actually know what they're doing and don't mind going the extra mile to make sure the client is happy.

I'm with Dreamhost since April 2000 and I'm satisfied with them, good uptime with cheap virtual plans.

Don't touch Hostgator. They suck. Their service is shit. Always an excuse for why things didn't workout.

Check out http://www.dwhs.com or http://www.adult-website-hosting.com
We host over 10,000 adult websites but don't advertise on GFY Good luck with your search. Also I would think most everyone on a forum is bias. freinds, their host, ect.. |

Thanks for the props everyone. :-)
Leslie, we're running a big special right now, first month of ANYTHING absolutely free. I would love the opportunity to give you a test drive and show you what Phat Servers is capable of. Just say the word and I'll have a server setup for you, throw whatever traffic you have at it for a month and see what you think. If you aren't 100% satisfied with our services, walk away and I'll never bother you again. That simple. You can reach me by email at [email protected] or ICQ at 147479144. I'm looking forward to working with you. :-)
