    Hello! I'm looking for a cheap hosting site, but has the quality in it. I can afford up to $60 for 12 months or 6 months if that's the limit for my budget., I hope there will be free domain registration for that.

    I already asked JustHost, but I've seen some bad comments about the hosting company.... Hostgator is well popular...but... kinda expensive...and no free domain... some are recommending Hostmonster.... is that a great hosting?

    is there really an unlimited disk space, and bandwidth??? or is 50 gb good enough for a blog with many writers....?

    None. I believe that is impossible to find good web hosting for everyone.... But people might have own idols ;)

    Browse the site of glowhost.com. This is highly recommended companywith largenumber of limited and unlimited plans offered. They would suit you whatever you are going to host (providing it is a legal content) and for sure would be good for blog hosting.

    I do remember your last question. :) If I were you and the choice you have for the budget, I would go for Hostmonster.

    I have experiences with both and they do never had a problem. However, I would prefer for Hostgator if the budget does not a matter. They have better uptime and customer services.

    I wouldn't say who is "best" cheap hosting provider because that is a relevant term to everyone.
    But I will say that "Stay away" from unlimited hosting providers (space/bandwidth). They are overselling their resources so much that you are bound to get issues with them. (Not from the start though)

    Try find host that fulfill your requirements. Ask some pre-sales questions ans see how they respond to them. Read few reviews about them, search for bad reviews about them.

    Do your fair research before jumping to decisions.

    I think before start any search you need to think about web hosting requirements and then do the search for the new web hosting account.
    That is impossible to find right web hosting account using only general phrases.

    It is hard to find a good web hosting with unlimited space and unlimited bandwidth for 60$ a year. I would raise my budget slight if i was you. What good is a web hosting service going to bring if its servers will be down at least 10 times a day
    Goodluck

    Hi
    Your budget is sufficient for a good host. But remember there is nothing like unlimited. Ask everything before purchasing. Few company provides upto 50GB web space. but they don't free domain. Remember on thing that a host will only provide you web space and domain if he is getting some profit from you. If you will go for cheap then you not get that level of quality.

    Thanks

    What' s wrong with HostGator. Well not much. However you can only use 250.000 codes which is about 20 sites for a shared account. A benefit is that you can try it for free 45 days.

    I'm checking alexa rank of every top webhost in the internet
    found that hostgator and bluehost is the best
    small alexa rank mean huge traffic, isn't it?

    Google is your friend.On the other hand there are big providers like hostgator,justhost,bluehost. and small and medium sized providers such as we young entrepreneurs.
