Possibly Good Affordable Shared Hosting?

imge.jpgIn the past two months, I’ve been closing several web hosting accounts that I had open the past 3 years. I’ve cut down on my domains/websites so downsizing the web hosting was important. Although, I closed three reseller hosting accounts I have been shopping around for good Affordable web hosting. When I first got started in 1999 I had no idea what to look for in hosting so I went for cheap hosting at around $3/per month. It was good but when the popularity grew it became a really bad service. So I learned from the first experience and usually ask friends in the business or highly trusted recommendations. There is no way to know a good quality host with the following important attributes, unless you have a reference:

  • High Up time Percentage
  • Fast Support & Forums
  • Speed and Performance
  • Quality & Good Pricing
  • Bandwidth & Space Allowance (no hidden fees)
  • Easy Upgrade Options and Transfers
  • Unlimited Domain Hosting

These are very important features if you’re shopping around for hosting. A company like IMHosted which I discovered while searching for a shared host replacement, offers a significant amount of web space and bandwidth. One of my favorite features of any shared hosting company is the possibility to host unlimited domains. Why? If you’re just starting out it is the most affordable way to get as many sites off the ground without spending too much outside of your budget.

IMhosted also offers a free domain for life, so that means no yearly renewal as it is added with the service as long as you are a customer. Although I’m not a big fan of using the host free domain offers, I’d rather have 100% control of my domains in case of any changes and if I want to sell it later. It is less complicated in my opinion when you have control of it using a domain registrar. But for newcomers it is easier and less hassle to get started! The other features included at IMHOSTED include:

  • No Setup Fees
  • 99.998% Network Uptime
  • Languages: PHP, FTP, SSL, MYSQL..
  • Pre-Installed Scripts

The pricing is very good as well at only $6.95 per month and if you purchase annually or more than one year it is cheaper. I’ve read more than one review of this company from several good blogs and hosting review websites. Overall it seems that you can’t go wrong and there is always a guarantee if you’re not satisfied. My best picks for any hosting company is good support, up-time and possibility to use most scripting languages! Good luck with your search!
