Successful Internet Businesses Need Great Web Hosting

by Tyrone on April 8, 2009 - 9 comments

For your Internet business to run successfully and smoothly you need to use great web hosting companies. I have used numerous hosting services over the years in running online businesses and the key is to find the companies that offer reliable hosting and good support. I can tell you it is not a good feeling to see your website go down for a product launch due to high traffic usage.

I would like to share my favourite web hosting companies that I currently use or have done research on that offer great service and value. Hopefully it will save you some of the hassles I have been through with unreliable services. One thing to note though, no hosting company is perfect and there are definitely some that are better than others.

Web Hosting Companies Tyrone Recommends

Hostmonster is one of the web hosting companies I have been using since the very beginning. I haven’t had any issues with their web hosting and they have great customer service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I also use this service for my client websites as well.

Lunarpages.com Web Hosting
Lunar Pages offers unlimited bandwidth and currently has a Spring special starting at $4.95 for 12/24 month hosting packages. It’s a great offer and this service is extremely reliable.

Hostgator offers unlimited domains for under $10. A very popular hosting service that has a 45 day money back guarantee and can help you build your website choosing from over 4,500 templates.


Bluehost is a highly regarded web hosting company in the industry. It’s very reliable and I highly recommend this service.


Superb Hosting offers dedicated hosting services for as low as $59 per month. This web hosting service is highly recommended for Internet businesses with serious traffic.

If you have any feedback on these services and would like to share your experiences about these hosting companies, please comment below.

    Hi Tyrone,

    great recommendations – I’ve tried all of them, except for Superb Hosting, and was happy with them all.
    Hosting companies to stay away from are: 1&1 and GoDaddy and Dreamhost. Dreamhost has great service, lots of cool gimmicks and you really can do anything you want, but the big problem with them is downtime. 1&1 and GoDaddy are reliable, but in terms of service, they are some of the worst companies I’ve ever done business with.

      Hi IMABC,

      Thanks for your comment. I’ve heard about Godaddy for poor service and that’s why I don’t use them to host anything. They’re not too bad for purchasing domain names though.

    Interesting post. Webhosting is very competitive nowadays and a lot of providers provide a lot of special perks to get their customers. Personally I like hosting with singapore web hosting provider as their support and uptime has been great so far.

      Thanks Stacie for your recommendation. I agree, webhosting comes down to what services they can provide and the price they charge. I will be sure to check out the Singapore web hosting provider you mentioned.

    I currently use Hostmonster and Lunar Pages and they provide excellent service and very reliable hosting. I am very happy with their monthly fee as well, so it’s great value for money.

    It’s important to develop relationships with companies who deliver on promises of great service and technology. It doesn’t matter if it’s a huge part of your business (hosting, marketing), or a small project (printing business cards), you should always look to build business relationships with people you can trust in a crunch.

      Hi Dina,

      Thank you for your comment. I totally agree with you. The long term relationship builds trust and integrity which makes it a win-win situation to do business for both parties. Furthermore, both parties can bring their strengths to the table and offer a better service or product to the consumer or reader.
