Hopefully someone can help me with this: I have just finished developing a new website, and I wondered if someone could recommend a good host for the site that they have had success with. There are so many web hosts out there, and I know how easy it is to get ripped off by a fly-by-night company. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike
Mike, I highly recommend LFC Hosting, the host of my website for the past 8 months. I have been extremely satisfied with their service. I have been with quite a few other hosts, most of which took several days to answer my e-mails and went down several times a month. None of the hosts that I have been with have come close to what my current host (LFC) provides when it comes to customer service (their live support chat is awesome), reliability, automation, advanced features and capabilities (like their control panel, which is just amazing), e-commerce support, and highly competitive plans. Anyway, I received an e-mail from them several weeks ago saying they will pay you $100 USD immediately just for switching your site to their service, which means you would be paying next to nothing for their service for the first year or so, it's definitely a deal to jump on. Normally, this offer would normally sound too good to be true, but I have grown to trust this company and I know that they are doing some major marketing right now, so I'd definitely say to try them out at least. I'm not sure if the offer is still on, but I believe the e-mail said that it was for the remainder of 2000. Anyway, I would contact off...@lfchosting.com for details; I highly recommend going with this host because, as you said, it is way to easy to get ripped off by a semi-legitimate hosting company, and I was incredibly fortunate to find this one :) Also, I should mention that most hosts promise a seamless transfer of your website, but this is the first host that I have been with that actually followed through, so I wouldn't worry about the job of transferring your site, they make it REALLY easy. I highly recommend LFC Hosting to anyone doing business online, even if they are already satisfied with their current host (they don't know what they're missing); I intend to stay with this company for years to come, they have helped my business tremendously. Hope this helps, Jon
