I'm a freelance designer so you can understand how much it is important for me to have a reliable host. I am looking for a reliable hosting service. Please suggest one.
It must have: wordpress compatibility 10 gb data transfer / month 1 gb server space no email required (i use gmail) 1 sql database php
I believe i am asking only what already come with almost each and every plan. BUT the thing is here i want a RELIABLE host.
I dig DreamHost -- but it isn't as reliable as other options. If you have the money then go with MediaTemple. Dreamhost is nice for its one-click installs; Wordpress installed in under 5 seconds.
However, anyone using any host is going to complain -- they just all have their issues unless you have a ridiculous plan.
I use godaddy and it is really inexpesive and has lots of features like cgi, php, msql data base and more ... check it out http://godaddy.com you can see my site SoftNet Web Design at http://softnet-wd.com and another site i'm working on that has all kinds of stuff like games and free dating at http://divorceketeer.com
May want to research media temple. I have it now but have not used it a ton yet. Amazing functionality and control panel and I see it used every where. I want to say this guy(css beauty) is hosted there too. Seems slow at times and a bit pricey. But it is expandable in that you can purchase database containers.
