I run a small family webhosting company and instead of buying reseller accounts we bought our own machines, got into it at webhostingtalk and got my head handed to me by these kind of people, all it takes is money, all I want to do is offer a good service
It really depends on your hosting requirements. Every host offer different features/extras. You have to do your research.
I agree with you. No, hosting of GoDaddy not become better. My friends regularly write to their support - as their sites that are hosted at GoDaddy are constantly suffer from viruses.
DON'T USE GODADDY!!!!! They suck! My websites are down at least 20% of the time. In fact, I have over 200 websites that are down at this very moment. I can't even access Godaddy.com right now. I called in to complain and after a 20 min wait the guy just says sorry we have no eta for it being fixed and then emails me a satisfaction survey that I can't even fill out cause Godaddy's servers are down. Don't use them!
IXwebhosting lowered their prices, they'd do better business by improving their services i.e. database availability.
