    Then you should find a more appropriate category to ask this question in. This is for Site/Server Admin, not price/review... Check the offers category.

    There are hosts out there that can supply you with good shared hosting for around that price - but just be careful they do not oversell their servers or your website speed will be slow.

    Best of luck.

    And, you could go for annual plan and reduce your per month expense too. Say you go for $4.95 plan and pay for yearly, it will be $49.95 and that gets you your budget.

    Very many of them for your budget.

    I think you will be able to find a couple if you do the search for them in the marketplace here. Then you may want return here and read more reviews about them.

    You will find plently if you Google for cheap hosting. And before signing up, ask them a few questions to check out how quick they get back to you.

    There are a lot of web hosts can do that. Even some of them can offer unlimited solution. If you want to speedup find the company you may want to do your own search for that.

    BEST is a very relative term. What is best for me may not be best for you...
    That being said, there are certainly many providers that are offering reasonable packages for $4/month (or close to it).
    Just make sure their offers are reasonable and they are not giving you way too much. (Avoid Unlimited hosts)

    At $4 a month, the unlimited plan at justhost will most likely suit your needs... They are becoming pretty popular with clients who run on similar budgets

    How many blogs can be hosted with the 2.29 plan? It can host unlimited domains but then again there are limits to the space and bandwidth...

    I have to agree that "best" is a relative term. However, i do want to offer a little insight to Rush-Host. At Rush-Host, we DO NOT OVERSELL our servers. I have heard of many hosts, including many of the top hosts like hostgator, and 1&1, and also JustHost. However, Rush-Host attempts to provide the best hosting experience that a host can offer, so thus we do not oversell. When a host oversells their services, their servers become slower, and the overall site experience is degraded. So if you are looking for a host that can offer you premium hosting services, then Rush-Host is your host. Also, we can customize packages to meet your needs and your price level. If you are interested, please do check out my signature.

    Justhost has some very poor reviews. There are better hosts out there for your money.

    They are not .. They will never be...
    What do you expect from extreme oversellers ??

    Just do your fair share of research before signing up with any host. Check out reviews about them on WHT or search google. Don't take anyone's words for guaranteed for the next home of your website.

    @OP,
    You have a reasonable budget ($4), you will most likely receive the value for the money you're paying.
    Search around for some established providers in the offers section.

    Hostgator has good reputation, but theAdviserMe is searching for the host with lower budget. Hostgator's hosting packages start at $4.95.
