    Hi,

    Can someone recommend me a fast and reliable, also functional web hosting company. And it should be cheap, like below 7$ monthly if possible. Im using hostgator, bought a hosting for $0.01 and now they have billed me $10 for last month. No thanks! Im leaving

    when you say they billed you "$10", was that your second month or your first month" just saying many will offer 1cent (or free) but later months are always full price. They should honour a full refund though.

    What sort of resources is your site using now? (talking hdd / bandwidth)

    Do you have any preference for which country your site is hosted in? or where does the majority of your target audience reside?

    For a US host, there is ferngullygraphics.com -> starting from $2. The guy doesnt oversell, which means poor hdd/bandwidth to cost compared to other hosts which are more oversold.

    thats a funny comment from someone who joined up with hostgator, buts its ok, I do understand where you are coming from. I am pretty sure that the one that I recommended was in business before digitalocean. I wouldnt recommend someone I didnt believe was reliable.

    I had a quick look for you, digitalocean has ALOT of positive reviews (and I only found a few negative ones, but thats normal). I cant really comment as I have never dealt directly with them before.

    Before you join anyone though, be sure to chat with them, raise any questions, be it backup questions or TOS question. Even if I make up a question for the fun of it, I do this as I find that pre-sales chats, helps me to know what to expect in terms of response times.

    Are you hosted with HostGator US or HostGator India? $7 a month is a good budget for a reliable shared hosting package. What type of website you will be hosting under the shared package?

    DigitalOcean is great but you need some experience with linux configuration.
    I use it for 2 months now and I have no complaints ;)

    $10 is a normal price for a reliable hosting service. If you are satisfied with Hostgator servers, I wouldn't suggest you to move out from there.

    I've my sites hosted with Onlinecares, and they charge $5 per month for Php hosting. My site is getting 2k visitors per day, and their shared servers handle it well. You could give them a try.

    For $7 a month you could get a decent VPS, get one if you know how to manage it, else stick to shared hosting.

    I have bought TSOHost. And Im more than happy. Thats one AWESOME hosting company. One thing they are missing is live chat, but it doesnt matter too much because facebook support is really fast. Awesome, fast, reliable. Great stuff

    If you need cheap hosting, you should choose between Bluehost, Fatcow and Ipage. They are the cheapest to my mind.

    Personally, if I dont get impressed with hosting company's web design I dont even want to look at options and services. If the hosting company is good, it should have good web design like digitalocean, tsohost

    Reliable and well priced hosting will leave you more satisfied in the end. When you are trusting a hosting provider with your data then you want to explore more than only the price. Choose a host that has been in business for a long time and beware because many hosting companies are now owned by one name. You might think you are moving to a new host but you may only be choosing a new name that observes the same practices that you found distasteful at your last hosting company.
