Web Hosting should be an easy decision There are so many web hosts out there, and it's often hard to decide the best course to take. Some hosts offer "unlimited" bandwidth, but you'll often find that this is far from the truth. Some hosts offer amazingly low prices, but when you go to set up an SQL database, upload an .htaccess file, or run server-side scripts, don't be surprised if the feature is disabled for the account you purchased.
It's frustrating, to be sure.
So...what's the solution? There are two really great webhosting companies out there. ThinkHost is certainly the best overall deal, but Godaddy offers a number of good deals as well.

Your Own Name ServersI've gotten downright tired of moving my site again and again. It seems there are no competent hosting companies anywhere on the planet. I don't ask for much. In addition to the usual features for a paid web host, I just want my site to be up and relatively quick. Downtime should be measured in hours per year, and at it's slowest the site should respond in less than half a second.
So far I haven't found a single hosting company that even comes close. I've tried about a dozen different firms, and they've all come up short. In fact, the most important rule of any web host is violated on a regular basis time and again. The sites are down and very slow. Virtually anything else can be tolerated, except for downtime.
Finally I sat back one day and thought long and hard about my options. I was getting very frustrated with my current hosting company because the server was timing out on occasion, causing my sites to become unavailable for a few minutes here and a few minutes there.
I started looking for hosts and saw a word that caught my eye. The word was "dedicated". Now that was a thought - a whole machine all to myself. There was some appeal to that thought, but the price was too high, or at least I thought so at the time.
