    I guess it will be much easier to recommend you something if you tell us more requirements.

    Disk space? Bandwidth? server location?

    The most valuable negative reviews are the ones that portray both sides of the pictures because they are unlikely to be biased as they can see the good and the bad unlike the ones that are just really pissed at a particular host because they made one or two mistakes.

    there are many hosting provider but negative point is technical support, while selection of the hosting provider just have a look on the uptime and the bandwidth they are providing, many time the issue is solved after time periods too so instant technical support is must. i have many site hosted in hostyourspace

    How long has the host been around, it’s beneficial if they have been established for some time!

    Thanks for your suggestion, guys.

    It seems most of you recommend Hostgator.

    By the way, I found a web hosting company, named webhostinghub.
    The price is cheaper than hostgator.

    Do you have any experience with this hosting?

    thanks,
    Samuel

    I have only experienced with HG back in the days.
    They have been good as long as your site is not "too much of a resource hogging" for them.
    I have no comments on WHHub but only advises and tips in general.

    First, always read for reviews to give an idea or what you could be facing. All hostings have positives and negatives. See what you ahve to be prepared with for even that 1 negative review out of many positives if in a rare case that happen to you too.

    WHHub reviews (google's your friend):
    http://webhostinggeeks.com/user-reviews/index2.php?item_id=78
    http://www.webhostingsearch.com/review/webhostinghub.php
    http://www.webhostingchoice.com/review/webhostinghub/
    http://www.thewebhostinghero.com/webhostinghub-review.html
    http://freenuts.com/web-hosting-hub-review/
    http://www.webhostingreviewz.com/webhostinghub-review/

    Please be advised that the term 'cheaper', especially in terms of comparison between unlimited hosting specs providers can be worrisome for the stability of your wordpress.

    Make sure the host you are moving to can provide you quality service (to an extent) and will not terminate your account because of one or few of your wordpress plugins causing "high loads".
    - I'm suggesting this because to make a wordpress run faster or run better, there are several plugins that require you to run under specific server requirements. Those plugins will use resources but on a good hosting, it will pretty well be under your resource limit. But with most unlimited hosting providers, it can give red lights against you.

    well I would suggest you to go to the WordPress website. WordPress › PHP / MySQL Web Hosting and see what WordPress themselves recommends. However there are many e.g StartLogic, Dreamhost, Laughing Squid, IX Web Hosting, AN Hosting, HostICan and bluehost. Reliability, uptime, performance and customer support are some of the factors which should be kept in mind during selection.

    For your website you need minimal storage and bandwidth because you receive low visitor then hostcherry dot com will be your bes choice since its cheap and high uptime.
