Where are you hosted

Postby joe.banana » Tue May 05, 2009 2:21 pm

Hello all!

Wondering where is most people here host their site? or hosting preference, if ever you are using more than one hosting company.

Hi Joe!
I've been hosted at Dreamhost for some time, but I really don't like the service. I moved to MediaTemple now that works marvells. I recommend it 100%.

I, at any rate, am convinced that He does not throw dice.

im hosted at all-inkl in germany. they are providing the best support for shared hosting.
if there is a problem they normally answer within an half hour.

for professionals and more demanding apps i recommend mosso (cloud-hosting).

Media temple is a bit steep.. I'm with netfirms, their cool.. but heard bad stuff about them.

I realized that I need closer servers not US servers for sites that target locally..

I'm hosted at Vexxhost (Canada).
A year ago I head some issues there, but since december everything has been perfectly fine now. Support is a bit slow, but who needs support when nothing is broken :)
Great price/quality/feature combo.

I've got an account over at Dreamhost too, but I actually don't use it (got it during a promotion).

I've heard quiet some bad stuff about Media Temple (grid hosting)... Mostly about grid-hosting i think.

I used to use globat, but i WOULDNT recommend them, they constantly kept signing me up for things I didnt sign up for, or trying to charge me for services I didnt register for. There service was shocking and would recommend you NOT to use them...


I now use Jortex and have done for the last 5 or more years. There prices are great, the service is second to none and i've had no issues with them at all.

I use HostGator (US) for my linux/PHP-based sites, and ServerIntellect (US) for my Windows/ASP.NET sites. HostGator is pretty cheap with good service (fast, little downtime, etc.), but not the fastest support I've ever had. ServerIntellect has very good service and very fast support, but only has Windows-based servers and they are a little more expensive.

I'd recommend either, depending on your specific needs.

We've used Mosso, MediaTemple, Godaddy and MaxVPS.

MT isn't that great anymore. We've moved a few sites off of their Grid because of terrible (yes terrible) performance. Not good for heavy DB driven websites.

GoDaddy is okay, very cheap and you have good control but they have limitations.

Mosso is So-So... haha... yeah but can't really say much about them.

MaxVPS is our main choice. They give VPS at a very good cost. Super fast for us. We're moving our MT sites over to it for better performance. You get Virtual Dedicated for the cost of Grid, can't beat that.

Anyway, I'm always searching for the "best host". GoDaddy gets my rating if you want a $6 a month plan though. But if your budget is flexible, go for a VPS at MaxVPS.
