HostPapa.com Reviews. A Review of Host Papa Web Hosting.

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009

Hostpapa is a privately held shared web hosting company with offices in both the United States and Canada. Hostpapa was founded in 1995 and their world class customer service is based around their motto “Let Papa take care of you”. Hostpapa is also notable because of its dedication to being environmentally friendly and is considered a green energy technology company by participating in some form of carbon credits program.

Insane about their support and customer service.

Hostpapa built up its excellent reputation as a web hosting provider through the simple formula of having first rate customer service that is not only technically competent, but personal in their interaction with their customers. Hostpapa uses the best server technology available and has a 99.9% guaranteed uptime and has a thirty-day money back guarantee for new clients. Hostpapa has a massive online support database as well as live support online and free 24-hour telephone support with access numbers both in the United States and the United Kingdom.

Technologically speaking Hostpapa is considered a leader in the shared hosting field because of their great security features and early adaptation to MySQL 5, PHP 5.2 & private .htaccess. The web application Fantastico makes it easy for you to install a variety of web 2.0 applications ranging from WordPress & WordPress MU, Forums, Auctions, Image Galleries, Soho Launch, and much more.

I picked Hostpapa as my shared web hosting company for five reasons:

  1. I was impressed with their customer service and customer satisfaction index. 99% of Hostpapa’s customers are happy with their service and stay with the company year after year with many who have been with them as far back as 1995. I have never had a question that their customer service team could not answer.
  2. Their hosting services are reliable. With 99.9%+ uptime and tech support who are constantly monitoring Hostpapa’s server farms I can rest easy at night knowing my website is available 24/7 365 days a year gathering customers for me.
  3. Hostpapa uses modern technology so my website is responsive and loads fast. Once I properly optimized my site I was amazed at the speed I was receiving from a shared web hosting solution.
  4. I like going with winners and Hostpapa is an award winning company who is regularly ranked as one of the top ten hosting providers.
  5. Hostpapa makes it easy to be a website administrator with the industry standard cPanel web 2.0 web application.

WebsiteSource Hosting Reviews. A recent 2009 review.

WebsiteSource Web Hosting Reviews. 2009 reviews by current and prior customers.

Hello All,

Welcome back to my web hosting company review blog. Today, I am going to review WebsiteSource. This is one company that I am writing a review about that I actually like.

Right off the bat, you will notice this company is not your typical ‘blind you with thousands of gigs of disk space and bandwidth for a few dollars a month’ hosting provider. WebsiteSource is a serious company and it is reflected in their hosting plans and prices.

If you want a high quality web hosting provider, Website Source is probably one of the best options hands down.

Founded in 1998, these guys have been a powerful played in the hosting industry. They offer a whole boat load of services inlcuding:

  • Shared Web Hosting – Starting at $6.97 for 25GB of disk space and 50GB of bandwidth. As you can tell, they aren’t your typical unlimited everything host.
  • VPS/Private Servers – WebsiteSource has a whole line of VPS services. These mini servers start at $30/m and provide 10GB of disk space and 300GB of transfer. They guarantee 2GB burstable bandwidth to your server as well as dedicated 512MB of server RAM to your account.
  • Dedicated Servers – They offer your typical line of dedicated servers at about average industry standard prices. The one thing I don’t like about their dedicated servers is you have to complete a credit card authorization form before they activate it. This can be a pain in the butt sometimes.
  • Reseller Plans - They are some real top of the line Plesk reseller hosting plans. They are more expensive than the competition, but just remember, you get what you pay for.

Overall, WebsiteSource is a company I am glad to write a review on. In fact, this is one of the few companies I refer people to that need a specific hosting solution. Definitely a good host is you need high availability, high quality web hosting space.
