    Who was your first web host back in the day?

    I started my first HTML game review website with Angelfire

    I used a host which was available for $10/year but it worked badly and I changed it and took Hostgator only after 10 days. :)
    And now I am happy with Hostgator.

    I was hosting with Exabytes but they gave me issues after 7 years and so I switched to DataKL. Later on I had a reseller plan for my other sites. Now I only have my personal blog on DataKL and the rest are on the reseller account.

    I use to create my 1st website on Geocities. Than I change to the free Bravenet.

    Right now, I'm happy with a paid hosting - Hostgator. :)

    My first was atspace.com or bravenet, I think bravenet, then I got sick of ads and moved to atspace, which is pretty cool since it has no ads whatsoever.

    now I am on dedicated :D

    well i am a newbie and this is the first time i am buying a host and hosting my website.. i must say FATCOW is really easy and user friendly... so far i haven't faced any problem in uploading my website to net.. and when i face any problem then they are very helpful... i think fatcow isn't bad.. may be its too early to say that but i am enjoying my stay with them so far....
