HostMonster offers some of the best web hosting money can buy, providing quality service since 1996. Unlike some of the competition, they have been able to accommodate the needs of their growing client-base without drastically increasing the price of service. Their hosting plan is only $6.95 per month, well suited for both individuals and business owners. Even at this affordable price, HostMonster still manages to provide exceptional functionality, with many great features and solid customer support to help get your website off the ground.

Reliability (5/5)

With more than a decade of experience, HostMonster remains dedicated to providing reliable service. Data is stored and secured on high performance Quad Opteron servers, reinforced with 24-hour monitoring and a mirror backup system. In case of an emergency, such as hardware failure, USP backup and backup generators are on standby to keep things flowing smoothly. The use of a redundant data system maximizes performance and backs the incredible 99.9% uptime guarantee.

Price Value (5/5)

Despite the slight increase in service, HostMonster continues to deliver a number of great features. For one low price, customers receive unlimited bandwidth and disk space to upload files and store data on the server. You do not have to worry about any hidden fees, as they offer free instant setup, unlimited domains, FrontPage extensions for one-click web publishing, a web statistics utility, and several scripts that add tremendous functionality.

Control Panel (5/5)

HostMonster provides clients with cPanel, the most widely used control panel on the market. cPanel has developed a following for its reliability, ease of use and extreme capability. From the control panel, you can access all of the essential features of the hosting package, giving you the ability to manage email accounts and FTP clients, create blogs, and even build an online store with comprehensive e-commerce tools.

Customer support is a critical aspect of any web hosting plan - one HostMonster excels at. The help center can be accessed directly from their homepage, loaded with answers to frequently asked questions.

          Their price is not cheapest but reasonable one compared to quality. I have been with them for 2 years and found only a few downtimes. They offer a quality support and some delay in reply but overall is acceptable.

          Host Monster have been a great provider to me up to now, I put a comment for customer support as a 4 but to tell the truth I have never had to use them, the service has been top quality :-)

          Monster are a great hosting company I have been with them for a couple of years now, with mysql backended sites and I have not had any significant outages, ok there has been the odd glitch but I’m a pragmatist and don’t actually believe in the perfect service

          While I prefer Bluehost myself over Hostmonster, my fellow webmaster friends and several colleagues have all chosen to go with Hostmonster. They have all applauded Hostmonster’s clean interface and I have to be honest, from what I have seen, it is exceptional. Hostmonster is the near perfect host.

          Host monster provides high quality hosting services and I have hosted some sites with them for about 2 years now. I have had no problems with them and my sites have always been up. I’ve never noticed a downtime with them

          I have been hosting with Hostmonster for a while now and I have to say that I completely agree with the ratings for Host Monster. Their services are reliable, affordable and they do provide good customer support. I have given them a rating of 5/5 in all their services too because I think they deserve it.

          I have had the best web hosting experience with HostMonster. I had earlier been hosting with ipowerweb but their customer support is so bad that I had to move all the accounts I was hosting to hostmonster. They have been really good in terms of support and the cost of their services. I give them a rating of all fives

          Richard, I agree with you on the poor customer support being offered by ipower. I once had a billing problem and first tried to get a rep on live chat. I was told the live chat was just for sales. I then tried calling billing. I was on the phone for one hour and couldn’t get through to any billing rep. That was about a year ago and I have since switched to HostMonster. A friend had recommended them to me.
