Deciding on a webhost can really be a pain. So many options, prices, specs, bandwith, 3 letter acronyms, domains, free this and free that, that your head spins out of control, and you rather not choose. How are you supposed to know who the big players are in the hosting industry from the 1 man and his dog shared and leased home line?

Not to fear, Dreamhost is here! Seriously.

Need a couple of reasons why I use Dreamhost? Im sure you do…

• Price – Not too expensive, and not too cheap. Starting at $7.95 a month, you getting some real value for your money. If you find a host charging you $1.05 a month, you going to get what you paid for – almost
• nothing.
• Transparency – Want to know exactly whats happening at Dreamhost? Read their blog. Everybody contributes, and it give you a different perspective on their day-to-day goings on.
• Control Panel – Their control panel really is simple to use. One click installs for some of your favourite software, manage your domains, stats, users and so much more.
• Support – Response times range from less than 10 minutes to a couple of hours depending on your query. Very efficient.
• Rewards! – Become an affiliate and refer your friends and family and earn some cash!
• Weekly increases – You start off with 4800mb 20gb! of space which increases by 40mb a week, as well as 120gb 1000gb! of bandwith which increases by 1gb a week. Can you smell unlimited?
• Unlimited – You can host as many domains and sub-domains as you can get your hands on. So get 2 friends to host on your account, and make them pay for your hosting!
• 3 letter acronyms – PHP, SSI, SSL, RoR, CGI ,CVS, SQL and a couple more that I don’t even know what they mean. Confused? Dont worry, its all good.

Best of all, you’ll get a free domain when you sign up, so you’ve got everything to start your web presence. Another big reason I chose Dreamhost was some of the biggest names on the net host their sites with Dreamhost. These sites get some serious clicks per month, and if Dreamhost couldn’t handle it, these sites would’ve moved long ago…

Mike Davidson, Jeffrey Zeldman, Fine Fools Network, Dave Shea, Dan Cederholm with hisSimplebits and Scott Boms hanging from his Wishingline just to name a few. So you’ll be hosting your site alongside some fine company.
