    Hello,

    We are about to write a new article on web hosting companies, and would like to do some research and find out who everyone is going with these days and who everyone's favorite hosting company is and why.

    I am currently using Namecheap hosting and pretty satisfied with them. Am currently running 1 VB forum and 3 blogs without any problem.

    I have been using their services for the past 3 months and in these 3 months whenever I contacted them their support team responded just within few minutes and helped me until I was not satisfied completely.

    Before using Namecheap I had switched 3 other companies but now I don't think I will switch from Namecheap to some other company anytime soon.

    A++ service & support.

    Thanks

    I use GoDaddy hosting. I have never had any problems. They have great customer service, fair prices, and many deals. All of their services are easily set up and get you up and running in no time.

    That's what I think of Hostgator.

    I'm using Hostgator, ixwebhosting, and Lunarpages for my sites. Hostgator has been the best.

    Are you satisfied with Lunarpages?

    I do have an account (I wanted to host blogs there) and sometimes I had FTP problems, sometimes donwtimes... I'm very cautious now with Lunarpages and I would not recommend them.

    I use GoDaddy. Haven't had any problems, customer service is pretty good too. That said, I'm new to the game, started 6 months ago. Will check out Hostgator as I've only come across good reports about them.

    I use both godaddy and hostgator myself.

    Now, I will have to say that I have pros and cons on both. With godaddy I wished I could access cpanel instead of using their backend.

    But with hostgator, here lately I have been having a lot of problems with server loads.

    Do you mean that your sites were slow?

    I've been a client. Very bad experience. Hostgator is very good.
