I am planning by some kind of hosting and I found justhost is cheap. Do you guys hever used it? And how do you like it? IS it good and reliable?
I have used them but my experience with them is worst. I have been trying to setup my website for a couple of weeks now and still not working right. I have sent two email for support, they took 3-5.5 hours to get a response, (they say it should take about 30 minutes) but no help with questions
First rule of hosting: You get what you pay for! Don't go for the cheap guys with hosting, trust me you well hate it.
I agree. I bought two cheap hosting here at DP and in a month or two, the service became worst and their site eventually folded up or gone in a pop. The good thing, i bought these hosting services just for testing only.
There are many reviews of JustHost being unreliable and not giving proper support: http://www.webhostingreviews.com/just-host-reviews.htm People who are planning on signing up, you should read reviews before purchasing to make sure your getting a good deal. Oh, and you can use us if you want to. Details are available below in my signature.
i am happy with my new hosting firm... i thought to buy link from justhost but i didnt trust them... i think reivews are important... dont be cheap
Im going to have to disagree with you on this one. I have been using Bihira hosting (Link in my signature) for a few years now paying only $2.50 a month and I have had no problem. I agree that if you choose a huge hosting company from china or something than you are bound to run into problems. However, there are some great small, cheap hosts based in the US that I feel have more to offer than the main stream companies because of their more personalized customer service.
I think he's talking about cheap companies in general. Iv'e come accross many of the types of host he's talking about in the past. But I would suggest to go with a company which looks professional, has good reviews, reliable and has a reasonable price. If I had to pay for hosting, I would rather pay £4.99 per month instead of £0.99!
I've got a JustHost account, I've had it now for a couple of months. I needed to set up a domain that would allow me to set up multiple sub-domains, and my "regular" hosting company doesn't allow for it. I picked JustHost because one of my clients had an account with them, so I decided to try them. My site was up and running for about two weeks when all of a sudden I couldn't view my site or log into my account, but my client's site was still up. I wrote to support, and was told (they didn't even try to cover it up) that the server my site was hosted on was overloaded. I laughed out loud. Good thing I was only using this account for test work. They did get the problem resolved within an hour or so, but it never should have happened.... Aside from that, they're fine. They use cPanel for their site adminstration stuff (domain management, email, application installation, etc.). cPanel annoys me a bit, but lots of hosts use it so I'm used to it. THey've got your standard stuff like WordPress and shopping carts and the like for free, and I did install both WordPress and phpBB forum on my site with unbelievable ease. I've had to contact them for support a couple of times and they have been responsive to me, so I can't really complain there. But again, I've only been with them a short time... so take my review with a grain of salt. For what it's worth, I've been using MyHosting.com for over ten years now and I love them to death. Great support, primarily that's what I love. Price is good. Sign up for a Windows hosting account and get a free Linux sub-account - that feature I love (you can do it in reverse too, have your Linux be your primary account). My only two complaints about them are that their reseller tools could be a lot better, and that they won't let me have multiple sub-domains on my accounts. For most sites though, it's not an issue. Hope that helps.
Welcome on DP! Thank you for your review and first post TheWebscaper I do hope it's not a spam for MyHosting.com
