@Bobby – Gadzooks. That’s insane! But it sounds like BH took care of you pretty soon and that’s all you can ask right?

And you’re very welcome on the review. I just I hope I did you justice. *thumbs up*

I had my 1st little problem with Blue Host today. It’s a good problem in a way and a problem you’ll have with any host as your traffic increases.

At 12:00 this afternoon I had 323 visitors on line AT THE SAME TIME!
My server exceeded it’s maximum bandwidth and my blog went off line! I had to upgrade to their fastest server to protect me for those spikes.
This many simultaneous may be nothing to some people but it’s a lot for me. The only actual good thing about using blogspot free hosting is that you never have to worry about that!

BTW: I want to personally thank you for writing such a great review of my site and me on BlogsWeLuv. It has truly made made my whole year!!!!! THANK YOU:)

@Brown – Thanks for your opinion. Which one do you use?

And what game were you watching before that? (I assumed you joined after another football game was ending)

Bluehost and LP are good choices. Whatever you end up picking, don’t forget to to check out their bandwidth limits.

As to the game, I saw the end of that. I thought they had it too.

@Mark – Thanks for the info, and I will definitely let you know. So many good hosts to go through!

@Pete – … You are useless. j/k Ha ha. I will still probably check them out too.

@Mike – Hm. Good to know. Customer service is obviously pretty important especially since the hardware won’t be within arms’ length for me. *nod*

@Bobby – I think that makes two for BlueHost! (They’re gaining steam quick). Now I haven’t looked at their plans yet but $100/yr sounds pretty swell though I’m not sure if I like the $10 for each new domain. Now I wonder…Is that $10 for setting up a domain on the server, or $10 for registration?…Still, strong endorsement. Thanks!

@Casey – We gotta talk SKINS some more sometime!

Bush I could rant about that forever! I actually attended that game and sat (well more like stood) 6 rows from that particular endzone so watching it was painful. Why Campbell spiked the ball to stop the clock with 51 seconds left when we were right there is beyond me. Must have just been nervous.

I use Bluehost. It does have full root access and most of the features you mentioned. For linux lovers like me, it has been great. Basically, it cost me around $100.00 for a year. Unlimited domains and each new one is a one time fee of $10.00. They have great customer service and are one of the highest rated for quality. I will never switch.

Nope no real troubles with HostGator. I had one small hiccup when I first started using it where things were a bit slow, but after submitting a ticket to their support it was fixed within minutes. No troubles at all since then.
