    Sorry i know this is not where i should post but when i tried posting to services i got a message that i didnt have permission.

    I am looking for webhosting for an unlimited number of domain or at least 10domains. I also want one with good support and an easy to use controp panel.

    I have looked around on the net and one that was cheap was hostmonster.com but I did get negative feedback that they oversell and do not have live support. Can you please recomend hosting for me and if you use hostmonster i would love to hear the feedback

    Hostmonster is good. All the web hosts oversell, that is not something you should worry too much. Hostmonster support is not bad either. You get fast response to tickets and they have 24/7 toll free lines. Naturally, there is a wait time on the lines.

    Another host you can consider is hostgator. Very good host, but unlimited packages would be slightly costlier than hostmonster. Good thing is, you can have a monthly contract without havign to pay setup fees.

    Both of them use cpanel, which is the best control panel, IMO.

    I would also recommend lunarpages, bluehost(same management as hostmonster) etc.

    Try lunarpages.com
    I do most of my web hosting there. You do have to pay for additional domains though but they are pretty reliable if reliability is what you are looking for.

    I would always recommend HostGator for someone who needs unlimited domain hosting, huge bandwidth and great support :)

    hmm still struggling with final decision, thanks for your input guys. hostmonster seems to be new with a bit of mixed reviews but then its cheap (a bit tempting) though i am a bit weary of cheap things. However form digging through threads here and at sitepoint it seems most people are recomending hostgator. Not sure which one one now. I need to buy the hosting tomorrow. for service it seem hostgater but value for money it seem hostmonster agrrrr.

    And by the way i am based in the Uk so i will need a host with good online support due to time differences. But then again with my current host i have had for 2years i have never contacted support coz i didnt need them. Reason i need a new host is hosting in the UK is very expensive so i am looking across the pond.

    If you're running multiple domains, I'd suggest going with a VPS that has WHM / cPanel. I prefer ServInt.

    PARDON ME ????

    As a 9 year LEVEL3 hosting provider, I take offense to that comment/generalization ...:eek:

    If your host is over-selling your bandwidth, and your online endeavors are anything more than a hobby, you should NOT tolerate this, nor should you have to!!

    What you should have said is "most budget-priced web hosts oversell... "

    After all - this is the only way they can profit while offering insanely low prices. They are banking on the fact that 70% or better of all clients will not see enough traffic to use their alloted bandwidth or monthly transfer limit on their account, and knowing this, the host resells the same bandwidth to several clients ...

    To paraphrase this scenario, it is like buying a car that you will mainly drive monday to friday to get to/from work ... how would you like it if the dealer sold your car to somebody else as well as you, who was to use it on Saturdays and Sundays?!? I think you can see where I am going with this ...

    Now that I have taken the time to educate you a bit on "cheapie" web hosts, I would like you to take a second of your time to check out my prices

    www |dot| a1websolutions |dot| com

    and take a test drive of my control panel, which is MUCH MORE USER-FRIENDLY than cpanelX, h-sphere, or plesk ...

    zeus |dot| a1websolutions |dot| com:2222
    user : demo_user
    password: demo

    If you like what you see and are interested, I will double the domain limit on the Basic25 plan (to 10 domains) with 25GB of monthly transfer, and 1500MB of disk space -- simply by mentioning Digital Point in the comments textfield during checkout. *I also offer website support through an integrated ticket system, email, or instant messaging.

    This is an open offer for anybody reading this, if you are looking for decent-priced, NOT OVERSOLD, Level3 web hosting from a company with a 9 year track record.

    I have learned and taken so much from DP, this would be a great way for me to give something back! :D

    A1 Web Solutions has been my host of choice for quite some time now. They have excellent rates and customer support and I have never had any issues with my sites being hosted there. I have tried other hosts but this one is my favorite by far due to their honesty and reliability. Check them out and see for yourself!!
