I have decided to my top three picks for hosting in ascending order. Today, I signed up with DreamHost since it is the cheapest ($39.4 a year with the coupon code MYFLAWS1). If at any point they cease to satisfy me, I can easily invoke the 97 day money-back guarantee. Then, I will move on to A Small Orange, which is priced competitively at $100 a year. Finally, should ASA not satisfy me, I will finish off with Media Temple - priced at $170 a year with the coupon code kirupa05. Let’s hope I can stick with DreamHost.

When I was younger and inexperienced, I signed up for web hosting with SimpleHost. That was one of the worst decisions in the life. With horrible uptime and pathetic customer service, SimpleHost is an absolutely terrible host. So, a few months ago, I started looking around for a reliable host who is within the cost of a beginning web developer and blogger who has very little money to send. After looking around, I narrowed the choices down to the rock solid Media Temple, the tropical A Small Orange, and the cheaper DreamHost. All of these services have their features:
- Media Temple - $20
- 1 TB of bandwidth
- Rock solid hosting (great uptime)
- Great support
- Fast - like a ninja
- DreamHost - $7.95
- 1.6 TB + of bandwidth
- Decent support
- Cheap
- A Small Orange - $10
- 25 gb of bandwidth
- Great support
- Cheaper
Which host should I use?
- A Small Orange - $10/month (46%)
- Media Temple - $20/month (38%)
- DreamHost - $7.95/month (15%)
