Well, I use Bluehost and it's super dooper. Works out about £55 for the year (a bit less depending on exchange as it's American) and I've come accross no limitations whatsoever. I've never needed the support as nothing has gone wrong in over two years so far, site has never been down etc etc. WIll be renewing at the end of this year when it expires.
so for £55 you get- Unlimited Domain Hosting
- Unlimited GB Hosting Space
- Unlimited GB File Transfer
- Unlimited E-mail Accounts
- Free Domain
- Free Site Builder w/ templates
- Secure Shell, SSL, FTP, Stats
- CGI, Ruby (RoR), Perl, PHP, MySQL
- $75 Free Google Credit
- 99.9% Network Uptime Guarantee

easyhost bearing in mind you posted two links that stank of scam criticising other hosting companies is a bit small time. But the small print should always be read when terms like unlimited are bandied around.0

considering the 2 links provided are both clients of mine who are in the process of getting pro sites done i dispute you call them scams.
so know according to spherelance anyone that uses HTML are scammers, which means 99.9% of websites are run by scammers according to you.0 -
Don't you mean client? As both sites are registered to the same person albeit one showing as a "non trading individual"Estate Agent, Web Designer & All Round Geek!0

Like I said, I've had no problems with them and have found it to be excellent value for money. So what if there is no such thing as unlimited hosting space? I understand it as you can host as many domains personally) as you like. I host a lot of websites through bluehost and all is going well!
I really don't see your gripe with that one sentence - I think anyone with an iota of sense would not assume that they could have unlimited hosting space - not only does that defeat the realms of physics - they would have considerable time and expense acquiring unlimited domain names!!
Anyway - I'd much rather go with a reputable company than either of those sites you posted (which if I'm honest AND not wishing to be discrimanatory against small businesss I wouldn't touch with a long sh*tty stick) and that was all I was trying to say!!I'll have some cheese please, bob.0 -

I think when someone is asking for unbiased information on MSE it is everyone's responsibility to recommend on experience where possible.
Recommending a 'client's' company, that is not even fully established yet, goes against the spirit of MSE and serves only your personal interest, hidden under the guise of 'recommendation'.
Hopefully the OP saw through it.I'll have some cheese please, bob.0 -

this client has been operating for 6 yrs and has several of his own clients, what happened his own daft fault. he forgot to renew his domain so it lapsed, so he set up the top host domain and the page that shows 3 plans while he looked around for a template or someone to design his site. the unicorn one his the site he uses as his main site that holds his WHM i have told him that needs to be more professional, but just because they are HTML their was no need to say they stink of a scam0 -

well tell my why you think they are scam sites.
these sites are just basic HTML pages until proper sites are finished and set up. if you check the top host site you will see they link to a WHMCS area0
