    I need a new hosting company.
    This is the most unreliable company you can imagine. My site ALWAYS goes down at least once a day... they take long as heck to fix it.
    And now I'm having trouble creating sub-domains. PLEASE someone recommend me a hosting company that I can pay monthly.

    I'm not sure if Hostgator allows you to pay monthly... so someone please help me out.

    Space 3gb+
    Bandwidth 100gb or more.

    Budget... I can pay a maximum of 6 dollars a month. I see hostgator but they make me pay 175 dollars upfront in order to get it for 4.95.

    As people says what you pay is what you get, therefore don't expect to have a super duper good hosting with a low budget.

    If you're in searching for a stable and reliable host:
    1) Get a long established web host
    2) Make sure they are not overselling
    3) Browse through reviews before making the decision to use them
    4) Make sure to claim a refund if you're pissed.

    Well I can't get a refund. I payed 22 dollars for a year of hosting lmao.
    I have the EXITE plan and I'm about to run out of bandwidth... their support sucks I mean look at this chat we just had.
    And I still don't know why the frigging server goes down every day.
    --------------
    Yeah but at like 8.95 a month... I can afford it but... I'll always know I could be getting it for less and that would kill me.

    How do you come up with $175 on $4.95 for 6 months? its more like $29.70 unless I am missing something, your space and bandwidth requirements aren't that out of ordinary.

    Cause in order to get it for 4.95 you need to pay 175 upfront, a 3 year contract.
