Koobi Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 my site's hosted by dreamhost.compro's:* great support team so far* great disk space/bandwidth* ruby on rails support* PHP5 (as a CGI) and PHP4 (as a CGI and Apache module) can be installed and run depending on your .htaccess with your own php.ini settings because you can create a customer installation (aka developers heaven :))* SSH access with a full UNIX shell (developer heaven again)* CSV and SVN repository (aaaand developer heaven)there's a bunch of other things but the above is all i care about :)can't think of any cons. i've been very happy with them so far.

steelmanronald06 Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 I would personally suggest going with webgeekz.netgeekz.net , serverpowered.com , or webhostfreaks.com . All three are great hosts. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/17903-hosting-opinions/#findComment-73957 Share on other sites More sharing options...
akitchin Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 i currently use [url=http://www.yrhost.com]www.yrhost.com[/url]. i'll admit that they aren't the best, but for a cheap plan they aren't too bad. i haven't had many problems with settings or access, but i also haven't done any heavy development using the server as my crutch.the uptime was a little bit unreliable at first (with hour-2ish outages every few weeks/months), but i haven't seen any unscheduled downtime for the last year or so now. their support isn't too bad, albeit a little bit slow (this issue seems to plague many hosts).i have the second-cheapest plan ($50 USD/yr), and it has served its purpose. however, i am soon moving to a resellers' hosting plan with someone else since the management of multiple domains/sites leaves something to be desired in my current plan (and their admin panel for resellers' packages is total crap).good for cheap, shared hosting for one site. probably not a preferable host for multiple sites.

cmgmyr Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I have a few hosts.olm.net - #1 pick - Great host, awesome uptime, reliable, fast, great tech support if needed - $49.95/mo for VPS1and1.com - Pretty good host, decent uptime, slow database creation (after you put in a request for a MySQL DB it takes about 5 hours to actually use), fast, nice desktop login app - $3.95/mo for beginner I think. (Just trying it out)servage.net - Lots of space, lots of bandwidth, kinda slow for me, overseas so you can have whatever you want on there ;)...if you have those sites - $90 for 14 months.I use OLM for all of my big sites, servage for smaller sites, and I'm just currently testing out 1and1 and seeing how they are with bigger sites.Overall I am pretty happy with the hosts and the types of sites I have on them. I tend to be pretty picky when I place a site on a host.-Chris Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/17903-hosting-opinions/#findComment-75072 Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomfmason Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 I use [url=http://www.calpop.com]Calpop[/url] for my two colocated servers. I doubt that you can find a better solution with better pricing or support.
