Thanks for the valuable advice I prefer looking at the server up time before choosing a web host. I think although Hostgator and Bluehost are expensive but yet they are reputed enough to attract new customers

Very good suggestions. I’m using HostGator and NetFirms. Both are great for hosting blogs. I recently came across Zyma hosting, I think this too is good one, needs to pay a closer look.

Really Good Guest Post.
Well, coming to the question you’ve asked,
Which hosting do you use and Why?

I am using Ipage hosting. The reason I am using this because it’s reliable, affordable, and one of the feature I like most in Ipage was it creates backup on daily basis. In the Control Panel, We are provided last 3 days days backup, so I am TENSION FREE to make backup daily or weekly backups but still I download backup weekly.

And I guess Hostgator don’t have this feature . I think they create backup on weekly basis ! Isn’t it ?

Yeah, Hostgator don’t provide auto backup system. We have to use some plugin in our WP Blog to take backup. However if anything went wrong with your blog. You can pay 15$ or more to Hostgator. They will restore your website from last backup (they did). :)

21 Raja Tahir Qaiser October 6, 2012 at 12:26 pm

Ammar,
Don’t know the reason behind this ROCKET SCIENCE but I have read on many blogs that manual backups are good than backups generated by plugins (May be I am wrong).
And Thanks for telling me about the backup system of Hostgator .
15$ for backup Really Funny :) )
LOLX HOSTGATOR =)) Don’t Mind Bro That’s my point of view Ammar, May your feedback to this Hostgator is good :D

Hi Ammar,

I think when people buying their hosting they first choose the hosting which is cheap so that they can pay it. But they fails to know that cheap hosting will always results in cheap performance.. Also also the main things towards blogging is hosting,,, suppose if we have a blog with awesome content on it and if the hosting is not uptime or having some errors.. So the blog will be waste and doesn’t have any traffic.

So i recommend HG for best results .

Yes! As of now we only go with hostgator and such web hosting which has achieved the big name. No doubt that Hostgator is one of the best one available and I am also using the same. But there are many who provides the same hosting features and reliability at much cheaper price :)

Hosting must be on the top list of priorities when starting a site. I am glad that you have mentioned hostgator in your list as that is the one that I have been using. I have heard good things about bluehost but not used it. I think lots of top bloggers are using a combination of these 2 hosting services alone.

HosyGator all the way for me. I have never had down time like I have with BlueHost. I also know for a fact that HostGator servers are faster as well. At least they seem like it to me. I have never measured them but seem to notice a significant difference.

Making an extensive search on the online platform and getting multiple quotes are the best suited ways to find the right kind of hosting. Web hosting is the back bone and should be done rightly.

I wouldn’t recommend Hostgator to anyone, as their service has deteriorated now, and they create a lot of problems and unnecessary restriction on their hosting plans, without any prior notice.
