Shared web hosting service - research report February 2015
I'm newbie interested in shared hosting service with cPanel, being able to host more than one domain, cheap.
I was going for the - bluehost shared hosting plus plan - $6* per month or justhost $4.5*/m plus plan, but their sneaky ads turned me off. The additional info which comes with the star (bottom of the page) reads: "*The promotional price is for the first term only and renews at the regular rate.". So, I went ahead and started the process (cc ready and stuff) only to learn that with term they mean not 1 year but 3 years period, i.e you have to make one time payment of $216 to get $6/m i.e. you're getting locked for 36 months. They should make this clear in the very beginning. Same trick was played at HostGator as well. Looks like EIG mutual owner keeps all these companies separate but pushes similar tricky marketing across the board.
BlueHost.com, JustHost.com and HostGator.com were all acquired in the last few years by EIG.
Endurance International Group also bought FatCow.com, SmallOrange.com, Arvixe.com, Domain.com, iPage.com.
Dreamhost.com $3/m with LIFEHACKER295 coupon ($35/y) then $119/y - ouch.
I looked at them, looks decent co, some people complained of long CS waiting time. They don't use cPanel but their own WebPanel. Website is nice and modern, but not too clear - how much you're paying for what. Google trends shows a negative popularity trend.
Godaddy.com - $5/m for 1 year. They now have cPanel.
1and1.com - I had domains with them for many years, then I switched to google domains. Their website is very inefficient and confusing. Their hosting prices are not the best.
NameCheap.com - I had domain with them before - no problem with that. Their hosting is the cheapest. The pro plan is $20/year for the first year then $79 per year. I like how their website is very straightforward and everything is clearly explained. They give you free domain, but only can be something .website .
In my research, I figured they are so many fake (affiliate driven) reviews online. Also many of the reviews are dated. Example: many claim godaddy doesn't do cPanel, but they do now.
