Best Cheap Web Hosting?

Is there such a thing as Best Cheap Web Hosting? When I started my first hosted website more than eight years ago, the next thing I did after selecting and paying for my first domain name was to search for a cheap but reliable web hosting provider and in eight years I’ve been with only three web host.

My first web host, which I forgot the name already, was good in the sense that it met my needs at that time but, as added more sites, my needs increased which made me move to a new host. My next web host was Site5 and I think I stayed with them for 3 years. I didn’t encounter that many problems with Site5 and the only reason I left Site5 was because they changed something in their available payment methods. I forgot what it was exactly but it made me unable to renew my hosting with them and because I can’t renew my hosting, I had no choice but to look for another hosting provider.

That’s where BlueHost came in. I asked a friend if he can refer me to a good, cheap and reliable web host and he pointed me to BlueHost and Hostgator. I’m not exactly looking for the best cheap web hosting out there. No. I’ll be happy with a good, cheap and reliable one. Anyway, I did find that both web host was good and I was thinking of signing up with Hostgator but, unfortunately, I was short on cash that’s why I ended up with BlueHost.

Don’t get me wrong, BlueHost has been nice to me. Yes, I do experience some downtime with them but who haven’t? The only real problem I experienced with BlueHost was during my first week when they suspended my account without informing me first but that was almost a year ago and I haven’t had any problems with my sites since then, except the occasional downtime due to upgrades or maintenance.

Anyway, if you are looking for a web host and you just can’t seem to find the best one out there then I suggest that you go for something that is good, cheap and reliable.
