Hostpapa

There is only one place to go for hosting and its Hostpapa. I've been tracking my site with internet monitors and haven't had 1 second of down time since I signed up for it back in August of 2007 and the speeds are incredible, i have around 0.21 seconds for load time for a homepage full of graphics and widgets. Their Team is fast to reply to any problems you may have. The only down side to this hosting was my site struck 230 active connections and that suspended it temporarily, but even that was handled accordingly.

I found registration was slow. And it took a long time for them to secure the domain - by the time they did, it was already taken.

I called support, and found them not friendly or professional. Received a comment saying they already said that to me, and the person seemed only eager to not be on the phone, don't know if it was his break or what. But I was not thrilled with the support in that area.

I then called billing to talk to someone, was unable to get a live person, they don't even leave you on hold to wait for someone to be available. They want you to leave a message or e-mail them.

Needless to say I chose to not cancel out of the year contract before I got stuck into it. They were good for that.

For them as a host I have no comment, but lack of professional support has turned me off.

I have never seen such a good hosting company. For the price you get an unbelievable amount of disk space and monthly bandwidth. I have never had any downtime at all since I joined. I am a science teacher so the best part of this is that all their servers are run off of green energy or wind powered energy. Great host.
