HostMonster For Small Business

Apr 3 2012

If you are a small business owner you would be crazy not to seriously consider Hostmonster.

I have found their support to be great.
Plus they have lots of free online tutorials that explain
in easy details how to use the essential features of their
CPanel.

And the prices is VERY competitive.

I have had situations where the server is busy due to maintenance or something but its usually just 10 minutes and only happens extremely rarely. That would be my only complaint.

Fully Recommend

Apr 2 2012

I have seen a lot of negative reviews of Hostmonster. I don’t agree with them at all. I was very satisfied with their service. I am looking for a cheaper host, because my financial situation is changed for the bad. Otherwise I fully recommend them.

satisfied with the service

Apr 1 2012

I am very satisfied with the service Hostmonster provides. Cheap hosting companies are popping up everyday, but for quality hosting I will always recommend Hostmonster to my friends. On the rare occasions I had to contact customer support they were friendly and quick in resolving any issues I got. In other words I can wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who can afford to pay a little extra for quality.

Best hosting Option

Mar 7 2012

It's a very high quality and cheap hosting. For 5.95$ you can get almost everything you can immagine. 300 GB is very much space, 3 TB traffic could be bigger or unlimmited but still it's very good. You get one free domain, and unlimited sub- and add-on domains. You also get u/l mail and FTP accounts. 100 MySQL and 100 PortageSQL databases, and support of every programming language. You also get SSH acces. You've got a 24/7 tech support. For me it's the best hosting option cause it's cheap and high performance.

My site has not been down once since I published it to the web 2 months ago. Host Monsters Customer service is excellent. I have called Technical Assistance 3 times and was connected to a live person in less than 1 minute all 3 times.

Reliable

I host some popular websites that together use about 30 GB a month and Host Monster has always worked fine for my needs. If I ever have a problem their support staff is very quick and reliable. I have even called them at very late hours of the night and someone was their to help me.

Great Overall

Oct 28 2011

This is a highly recommended service if they do not look at the price to be expensive. It is worth of their services. Any small enterprise may definitely go for this kind of hosting. Overall they give a good customer satisfaction. If they can increase the disk space and traffic, it will be more attractive.

Service is ok

Aug 15 2011

Am new to Hostmonster, so far everything is going fine. There have been some hiccups but they did resolve those, although it took a while to hear back from them even while the site was down. Their pricing is reasonable, and they have good space.
