Cheap and Reliable Web hosting solution Review

Find out which web hosting company offers the cheapest and reliable web hosting solution

Categories: Featured, Web Hosting

I have been looking for a good web hosting company who offers cheap but reliable web hosting solution for quite a while. The keywords here are cheap and reliable and for some reason these two words do not want to go together very well . If you are willing to pay big money then you have nothing to worry about… your options are endless. My focus is finding that sweet spot where reliability meets cheapness. I continuously update this page with my findings on cheap web hosting solutions. Hopefully this information will be of some help to someone looking to find a good web hosting company.

I am very strict when it comes to the reliability of the web hosting company. Server Uptime is very important for anyone who has a website doing whatever business that you are doing. If your site is down when a visitor or customer goes to your site then you are losing traffic and business. In addition to losing temporary customers, if your site goes down frequently then there is a good chance that your customers will get annoyed and will try to avoid coming to your site in the future.

Most web hosting companies guarantee 99.9% Server Uptime but in reality a lot of them do not deliver 99.9% server uptime that they guarantee. Most of the time you won’t even know that your site was down and you lost customers. None of your visitors complained doesn’t really mean that your site was up 100% that month.

I am particularly interested in a reseller account. A reseller account that allows you to create multiple cPanel based websites. The ability to create multiple cPanel based website is really useful as each website has individual cPanel control panel for administration purpose. Not many of the cheap web hosting companies offer reseller account with the ability to create multiple cPanel based websites.

I was with Surpass Hosting and even though they have a 99.9% uptime guarantee, recently my site has been going down frequently. When you complain to them they reply to you with the result of the UNIX ‘uptime’ command which shows the length of time the system has been up, saying our servers were up all month! The system was up all month doesn’t necessarily mean that your site wasn’t down (The CPU load could have been at 100% so it wasn’t processing any other requests and hence your site was not accessible).

I have decided to change my web hosting provider and after doing some research I found that Web Hosting Buzz offers the cheapest reseller hosting solutions and looks reliable (from their server uptime data). So I have decided to give web hosting buzz a try.

WebHostingBuz Review

WebHostingBuz offers Reseller accounts from $5 per month with some great features. They have 99.9% server uptime gurantee. You can check their server uptime history from WebHostingBuz Server Uptime figures. WebHostingBuz website has Google page rank of 7/10 (Page Rank reflects Google’s view of the importance of the web page). I tend to use the website’s page ranking as a trust factor. A website with high Google page rank is less likely to be a fraud.

Below are some information on WebHostingBuz. These are probably no different than any other web hosting companies out there…

Some General WebHostingBuz Details

Hosting over 300,000 websites.
cPanel based hosting platform for highest conversions.
In house staff of over 100 people.
Free domain name with every hosting package.
Free website builder software with tons of free templates.
Advanced billing management system for resellers.
Sophisticated spam control system installed across the network.
Servers spread across three data centers in the United States.
24×7 live sales and technical support.

Some Technical WebHostingBuz hosting Details

Host accounts on very powerful RAID protected Dual Quad Core Xeon web servers.
cPanel control panel & Web host manager.
Usual cPanel features like PHP, MySQL, CGI, pop3/Imap email accounts, etc.
Ruby on Rails and Shell Access (SSH) support.
Overselling enabled.
Fantastico scripts auto-installer support.
RvSite Builder to design your site easily.
Anonymous Nameservers to setup websites.

Web hosting buzz offers pretty cheap reseller account but is it reliable? It looks reliable from the Server uptime data but I will have to see how I go with them to be sure.

Update (6 Months Later)

I decided to give WebHostingBuzz.com’s Virtual Private Server (VPS) a try as my traffic has gone up heaps since I first signed up with them. The VPS upgrade was a disaster… they probably put me on an overpopulated sever so my site response time was horrible. After having a chat with their support team they made it seem like it was my fault for using WordPress. Over time my site is going to grow so it is important that the hositng solution is scalable and Web Hosting Buzz’s VPS was just a mess not to mention that they were charging $8 per month extra for using cPanel! I knew it was time for me to look for another hosting solution so I started looking and InMotionHosting seemed to be a good hosting provider so I signed up with them and now I am really happy with my site response time and InMotionHosting charges less than WebHostingBuzz for the same plan.

Below is a list of web hosting companies that provide affordable cheap web hosting solutions.

I’m currently using Surpass. It’s been a couple months since you switched, so can you give us an update on how it’s been the past few? I too have experienced random down-time with Surpass, and while I like the prices, I still wish I could find a host that doesn’t go down.

Hostmonster & Hostgator have been very solid and most importantly, very reliable. As far as my pick for best, but not the cheapest, is by far GVO (Kiosk). Their Titanium reseller package offers the serious webmaster some awesome tools.

Autoresponder, video hosting, conference room,and much much more. The support is second to none but again it is not cheap – $45 monthly for resellers.

For WordPress blogs I would have to go with Hostmonster and/or Hostgater. Both are around 9 bucks a month with reliable up-times and outstanding support if you need it.

I’m looking forward to hearing of your hosting experience update.

Sincerely,
Steve Dougherty

But I think the web hosting support is also be the most important things to consider when choosing a web hosting service.

#15 by turisuna on January 13, 2010 - 11:41 am

As if I found this article earlier, I won’t confuse to choose good hosting that match with my needs. I have changed web hosting for four times since the last three year. At first they were good, unfortunately it didn’t last for long time, so I had to move from one hosting to another hosting. Now I use justhost.com. The service quite good, if I have problem they will help me till I solve the problem, they also quick in answering my question, well so far so good

Hi,
I have just across your blog and i agree there’s a problem with cheap web hosting and good quality customer service. I’ve heard of a company called SquirrelHost website http://www.squirrelhost.co.uk. they seem to be customer centered and i think well worth a try. They are actually focused on online CV’s but have many more packages to cater for anybody’s needs and i hear that they may be willing to do discounts on any of the top packages.
They offer a free account as well but that it for personal use, cheapest package is £12 a year, the company may also cover the DNS registering cost, usual cost of £7, so they only get £5 off you.
Their so new their website isn’t totally complete but i managed to get an e-mail address info@squirrelhost.co.uk

Just a quick update on my Hosting ‘experience’. When I said in an earlier comment on this thread that GVO was in my opinion the best but not the cheapest…well I was very wrong.

Not only are they ‘not the cheapest’ but they are not the best either. While they are constantly saying how much work and money they are putting into their new ‘State-Of-The-Art’ system,something is always causing them problems. Their problems results in peoples businesses being closed.

Their customer service is the best I’ve seen but that will not bring the website visitors back to my site to become my customers. So it was time to pull the trigger and move on.

So far, the Hostgator and Hostmonster accounts I have are problem free and I’m happy to recommend them.

I’m looking forward to hearing more about your hosting experiences.

Hi All they is a lot of posts on here saying many things about hosting and it makes it hard when your clients want you to give them the best internet marketing. My job is to help clients with Hosting and i look for two things. other websites that are on the same server and make sure they is not hundreds of websites listed on a server. I am checking all these posts now and will hopefully find something that i can use to help my clients.
