Hosting Reviews

The web host you choose can have a long term impact on how your website is built and delivered to the world. A good choice can mean you don't have to worry about hosting concerns, but a bad choice can be a nightmare of re-installs, transfers, and even abrupt account shutdowns. Quite a few webmasters learn the hard way about keeping offline website backups when they wake up one day to discover their host has disconnected from the net and vanished with the data & cash. With that in mind, it is still impossible to pick a host as the "absolute best." While there are a lot of reputable and reliable hosting providers out there, the best one for you depends on your exact plans for the website(s) you're building. Be sure to read these reviews to get to know the hosts I use and/or recommend.
