    hmm... since other people are posting their dreamhost referral codes,

    Use code PROMO1 or PROMO3 to save $80-$90 off of a yearly plan!

    have stayed with them for 3 month.

    Giveing the devil his due, they are stable and have a nice uptime.
    It is happy to stay with them when you are running a small site. but when uniques ip grows it is not fit with them as they will limited CPU usage.
    my sites are about 2500 uniques ip in total,
    the CPU use time

    the mysql error would happen sometimes

    It is really a large plan for me (20gb space and 1tb bandwidth). it is hardly for me to use over unless all pages are static or just for storing.

    there is a small problem when you create mysql database in their control panel. you have to create a new mysql host when create a new mysql database which is rather discommodious.

    And they don't offer any web statistics but analog which don't offer uniques ip statistics and I can't tell my customers how many uniques ip I got

    Now I am considering to move some of my sites to a new host.

    Unbelievable value for money for the personal hobby site but I wouldn't trust them with a business site. It's lasted long enough to get my thumbs up though.

    Why use that coupon code when you can get $97 off with the other coupon codes mentioned above?

    I'll just provide my simple input for now:

    Dreamhost is very good. I have had no problems with them. They keep their customers very informed of any updates or problems that they may endure. :)

    Way oversold - I was having issues for over a week with no response to any queries - they just kept closing them. It took me forever just to get connected to make a current backup. They were fine in the beginning, but when they went to the TB offer, my sites crashed to an impossible crawl. I just had to leave.

    I hosted a website there,,, its a wordpress blog. When I reach 2K visitors/day I got a letter says that I was using too much cpu resource and my account was suspended. My monthly transfer was less than 30GB that time.

    In fairness to Dreamhost, Wordpress is known for using a lot of resources.

    I don't really like dreamhost. If you want a good host try bluehost.com. ive used it for over 2 years i NEVER had downtime. 10 gigs of space plus a free domain. cpanel etc.
