    Hello,

    Well I am really confused as which to choose . As I got bad review about all of them in WHT . So which do you think is good ? I don't really have a high budget but anything till 50$ per year is cool i guess . Fatcow is very cheap but they have lots of php and downtime problem according to WHT and Bluehost also have sad reviews about them . If anyone is using these which do u think can help me . Please Guide.

    Thanks,
    DJ

    I have tried HostGator and from my experience I won't recommend it to anyone.

    If i had to choose between the 3, it would be Hostgator. But if I had to choose from all web hosting, I think dreamhost would be the best! (No promotion intended)

    I wrote correctly. :) I won't recommend them. I had a dedicated server with them and they had many problems in handling that. Also it got hacked twice.

    Between the three options, I'm going to say Bluehost because of personal experience. I still the best host is Dreamhost.

    i like hostgator because the bluehost cpanel was recently blocked by my companies internet security and hostgators is still open
    but hostgator is junk for buying domains.

    I can't recommend Hostgator, they pulled the plug on one of my sites for a high load on the server, without any notice.

    2.5k visitors/day but I installed a caching plugin to reduce the load on the server. I just think its unprofessional for a hosting company to take down the site without notification.

    Aww. Actually I had the same thing with my previous host they took out my site and when I asked them they were like too much of load and hence they shut it down for 24 hours without a notice and when i asked them to restore it they were like we cant before 24 hours and I had like 400 UV/day only .They just scammed me .

    Seriously? Well if that is the case then bluehost and hostmonster both are pretty good with even 3 to 5k UV a day sites.
    Been using them with no problems whatsoever.
