    If you are looking for a paid hosting provider, Hostgator might be a good option. But if you want a free host, you can go for 000webhost. I would also recommend to go through the hosting discussions on DP and then make a decision. :)

    Hi there.

    It all depends on what you need it for, for normal accounts I would go for HostGator they are really good. Also for a dedicated server box I'd go with SoftLayer.

    www.hostgator.com www.softlayer.com

    Good luck with your search.

    I used Hostgator because it was highly recommended by others.

    I use asmallorange, they don't oversell and you can rely on their consistent service/uptime.
