Iam running my website = www.vbpoint.com on namecheap.com webhosting. But Iam not happy about their service. They have slow server and sometime , it lags. Also there is a php limit of 32mb only. I have vbulletin forum , and Iam looking for best branded webhosting company. But I prefer to pay in monthly. I only want cpanel , no direct admin , no plesk , no other cpanels. I am looking forward to hostgator , but when I want to pay them, via my credit card , they are asking to pay yearly, as Iam far away from their homeland. What to do now? Which good webhosting companies offer monthly payments? My budget is 11.00usd/month
Besides hostgator have you checked dreamhost, lunarpages and hostmonster? You could also visti the forums at webhostingtalk to look for some reviews opinions and comments. I see where you are coming from because you probably have small to thin profits and you definitely want to minimize your expenses. One payment vs. twelve is important enough for you at this point. The $2 savings per account per year times 10,000 accounts may be worth while.
hostmonstor, bluehost doesn't offer monthly payment option. Dreamhost offers monthly payment option but high setup fee. Am looking for brand hosting with cpanel, monthly payment and no setup fee.
I use Yahoo. They make it very simple and have many options on how to create your page. You can upload ftp or use their software. It seems to me that they have 3,4 or 5 different software options. They have different price points. The web starter is $11.95 a month and does everything I need in a webpage, including being able to accept paypal. They are big but that is why I use them. Their servers haven't gone down on me, and there is less of a chance of them closing shop in the middle of the night and leaving my site in limbo.
If you are paying monthly there usually is some kind of setup fee. It's waived when you sign up for a longer period. How much traffic does your forum receive? Did you have any issues with too many DB connections?
Check out totalchoicehosting.com if Hostgator doesn't work out. TCH has worked great for me in the past and may work for you also.

You can find good hosting deals and great specs following my signature, other than this my suggestion is avoid namecheap and godaddy hosting services because they lack of efficient customer support and setup in a way you are not free to freely run your website without facing problems with their servers settings
Servage.net is cheap and pretty good. Polurnet.com is the best host I have had they aren't to pricey.
Thanks for the comments and suggestions. I like to see servage.net. What is the service of FastNext.com? Anyone expeqienced?
xwebhosting.org by far is the best service i've ever used. Cheap, good support, fast servers, and overall just a winner. I would definitely suggest these guys.
Try unramped host. http://unramped.com, free and paid host here.. http://www.unrampedhost.com/plans.html
I suggest you to look at Hqhost.net. They are focused on delivering shared, dedicated and collocation hosting solutions for any sites. Suggesting Additional services, they propose standard hosting plans, the price-per-gigabyte plan and the static content plan - this plan provides hosting sites on the servers with a special setup where you can't run server-side scripts. It is reliable company, that's why you will definitely make the right choice.
Crystaltech is great too (crystaltech.com), primarily windows servers but price is good and support/community is great
Anyone recommending... Host Gator Dream Host Servage are broke newbies. Stay away from them. Webhosting is the foundation of your business. After all, this is a BUSINESS right? Invest in it toots. 2 cents.
