    There are bad reviews on Justhost. However, there are also who are praising it. It is definitely cheaper compared to the recognized best which is Hostgator. Personally, I would really go for Hostgator had it not been for budgetary concerns. I could not yet afford the first $90 (discounted) annual fee of Hostgator.

    It is really up to you to find out if JustHost is good on its promises.

    I never tried them but if you look around you will find more negative reviews than positive ones.

    If your site is really lightweight (not much traffic and resources) then you can use them. For more demanding sites (dynamic content and decent traffic), there are better hosts out there.

    The only negative comments we have heard is that you have to sign up for 4 years to get the low price advertised on their home page. To some this may not be a problem, but others find it a little misleading when compared to hosts that are upfront in advertising their 12 months cost per month, which is all most people wish to commit to.

    My friend used justhost. I do not recommend them. They will suspend you for uploading media files, or if you use up to many server resources.

    Correct -- this is something I really hate. Coming to a site advertising low rates only to realized that the low rate applied to a period more than 12 months. It is really a stupid thing to do on the part of the host because it turned off a lot of buyers.

    A friend of mine is hosted on JustHost, he never complaints :) So I guess they're good enough. (He complaint a lot when he was hosted somewhere else)

    I've seen more bad hosting reviews than good about their hosting service.

    For small sites it may be good. This is not good if you get more than 5000 unique users per day.

    I think you need to do the search for their business name. I'm certain you will be able to find plenty of their reviews.

    I agree with Rob here. They are the host which have plenty of reviews. Do not be lazy. Do the search for their reviews.

    Yes, and I would add that you should use not only google to search for the reviews but also forums like this (and maybe some web hosting forums). Justhost is well known host so it may be no problem to find some reviews.
