Re: Looking for a better web host
by Brendan Coots on May 13, 2009 at 3:20:07 am

For years we've been hosting our own website on an in-house Xserve, but I recently decided it wasn't really worth it so I sought out a new host. I used to be a web developer and so I've dealt with many, many web hosts in my day and know what to look for and what to avoid.

That said, we also went with inmotion hosting and so far it's been great. Very fast (including larger videos), partially because you can select which half of the US you are on and they will put your site in a more local datacenter. I've been on the phone with their support about 5 times (stupid MySQL issue, not their fault) and they answer quickly and know what the hell they are talking about. The CPanel dashboard is really great, has a ton of features, and their mid-level package includes everything you could possibly need for less than $10/mo

I can definitely recommend. I can also definitely recommend you avoid iPower, Lunarpages and speakeasy.net. All three are a nightmare.
