HOSTEXCELLENCE

HostExcellence rose from the ashes of the dot com bubble of the late 1990's to become the success they are today.  Since their inception in 2000, their stated focus has been on customer service and satisfaction.  With three ways to contact their support department, via a ticket center, live chat, or telephone, they make it easy to get your questions answered. They offer a variety of plans designed for both individuals and businesses on Linux and Windows platforms, all scalable so as you grow, you can convert. But don't assume their basic plan is limited because it isn't.  It comes fully featured.  They like to say they chose their name carefully: HostExcellence.

Check Them Out

Dec 15 2011

I would advise anyone looking to host a community website to check that the package you purchase from these will be allowed as there servers seem to have problems with the smallest of sites, my community only had 400 members and about 4000 posts and i was on the top package with them.

dedicated IPs

Dec 10 2011

On the positive side they are good in that they give you dedicated IPs for each site - up to 15, those dedicated IPs really keep me wanting to stay.

We downgraded to VPS

Aug 25 2011

We had our 60 sites on a dedicated server and felt we needed to downgrade because of cost. So far the VPS solution has been a good one for us. Except for a few glitches, we're pleased.

One of the better ones.

Aug 25 2011

My experience with them has been mostly fine. All hosts are bound to go down once in a while. It's how they recover that makes the difference. Host excellence has worked out well for our business. I wish we could have gotten this new discount price though.
