Don't go to godaddy. They may seem cheap but their customer service is terrible. Try Hostgator, Verio, Cirtex or any other company for that matter. Ensure that the company you are going with has cpanel as part of the package.

Correction, I mean by user friendly I was talking about the user interface. Have not ever used customer service for Godaddy.. Good point about CS. It is hard to find.

I use both Godaddy.com And 1and1.com Godaddy is more user friendly and 1and1 is more advanced. Both have page builders. If you do your own pages they handle both depending on what package you buy. 1and1 is cheaper. hope this helps.

June 14, 2009 04:23 PM - Fact Refuted
Don't go with 1&1, whatever you do. I was on one of 1&1's shared hosting plans, and everything was good for the first month or two (until the money back guarantee period was over) and then everything got slow - simple file access & MySQL. Also, when I finally left 1and1 after my 1-year contract was up, they didn't allow me access to manage my domains which I purchased separately.

Nowadays, they keep emailing me 4 times per week about affiliate money they owe me, that I cannot claim because my account is no longer active. When I emailed support to tell them to stop emailing me, they said they couldn't comment or help me because they couldn't find my account... because it no longer exists! They didn't even read the part where I said my account no longer exists before they told me that. Geez.

Seriously, I had a terrible experience with them.

I'd say go with http://iclickster.com/hosting

They provide 1-1 customer service and their prices are per year - my 4 websites are all on their servers and the only problem I had was one time last year when their email server had a problem - which was resolved swiftly.
