Changing web hosting any suggestions?
Hey everyone, needing a bit of advice here....I'm looking at switching my web host, various reasons too long to go into here, but I was curious who others are using to host their sites and if anyone is using a mac host like macdock?
Thanks!

Re: Changing web hosting any suggestions? We use Dreamhost (
Web Hosting by DreamHost Web Hosting: Web Sites, Domain Registration, WordPress, Ruby on Rails, all on Debian Linux! )
Our hosting is paid through 2012, and by all indications in the year or so I've been with them, I won't regret that.
They don't use cPanel, tho, and their control panel takes a little getting used to, but overall I'm really happy with their prices, features, service, and space!
Check out their forums to get discounts of up to $97 on your hosting. PLUS, you have 97 days to decide if you want to stay with them or not with a refund if you decide not to go with them in that first 97 days. No Questions Asked.
And another PLUS! Your webspace and bandwidth grow weekly! I have WELL over 500GB of space now, not that I'll ever use that much!
The other advantage to their hosting is that you can host as many domains on one account as you want. Completely unlimited.

Re: Changing web hosting any suggestions? Depending on your budget and needs, plus your bandwidth usage and web space I can recommend several places if you could be a bit more descriptive I can save you time

Re: Changing web hosting any suggestions? Thanks everyone for the suggestions! I've looked at some like bluehost before, and revisting them, as well as checking out the others that are suggested here.
I'm using a mac now although I have a windows laptop, and updates are a bit of a challenge on a cpanel with the mac, it works just some trial and error. That's why I ask about Macdock that uses rapidweaver or even MacCommerce. Just looking to make life with the updates a bit more easier.
But my main concern is having great support, which is not what I'm getting now, it's like we got your money now see if you can find us.
Thanks again!

Re: Changing web hosting any suggestions? I have been with CIHost since 1998.
They started out a little rough but in the last 5 years have been great!
I have a direct line to the dedicated server support and 2am calls are no problem.

Re: Changing web hosting any suggestions? CI Host is the worst. They lost my site and had no backup.
