Does anyone know of an alternative hosting service to Homestead?

    I want to begin building more websites, but I'm sick and tired of using Homestead because they charge 2 dollar per month on top of your normal fee for every domain you register and their service is pathetic.

    Does anyone know of any low cost hosting services where I can build sites and sell sites easily?

    What is low cost to you? We used Hostway ourselves for about eight years.

    I use www.3ix.org which I am totally happy with and their support responds fast. Try their 14 day trial first and see if they are a fit.

    I would not really even consider that webhostingtalk forum. It has an over-abundance of teenagers trying to run their own hosting business. And when things don't go their way, they are on their whining about it because someone found out they were underage or Paypal suspended their account because they are not 18.

    I understand that as larger companies get bigger you have the potential to have more angry customers but it seems that dream host has more than the normal.

    I'm going to put up a recommendation for iowadawg... I haven't actually used his hosting services... But I've kept an eye on his presence on the internet and I have never seen anything negative towards him, but seen a lot of good things. I have faith in his service.

    Tesla - Do you need hosting that has an html editor included? I only ask because I thought that Homestead was a total package with a sitebuilder.
