+1,000,000 for Enterhost dedicated servers. I've been with them for many
years now. Every year or so I shop around just to "keep them honest", and
every year or so I stay put. Why? They're unbeatable, both in service and
price. The best thing about their service? I rarely ever need them, and

Actually I chose the 7.95 because SQL Server is part of my skill set. I do
hope there isn't any downtime, but at least I only signed up for the monthly

Agreed! They ROCK! I think their prices are great considering the
support and quality. I've paid more elsewhere for crappy service in one
way or another.

If you're going to host on Hostek's shared servers be aware they do have
issues with slowness and downtime. At least they did when I was there.
But at $5 a month ( actually $25 but that gets you 5 sites - that's the
plan I was on ) you get what you pay for, if you're willing to pay for

When looking for a host here are a few tips.
DO NOT use host review sites, nearly all are scams.

You have a point there. Actually, after speaking to the people at Hostek, I

Thanks. Finally an answer to this one. I ask because as someone whos been

Personally I'm a huge fan of Edge Web Hosting - they really know their
