With so many offers around, where should you start when you are looking for the best web hosting companies? Well Web Hosting Geeks has a site that aims to find the best solution to your requirements. With a site like this one, I don’t need many fancy extras, nor a huge traffic/diskspace allowance. With this in mind, you can compare the different offers all in one place, making sure you get the best for your money without wasting any on features you don’t yet need.
There are a few areas where WHG’s site could improve, for example their Best Budget Hosting page still has one company listed as the winner in 2007, though the recent customer reviews are all warning prospective customers to stay away. The winner of the Best VPS (Virtual Private Server) Host has not been updated since 2006 (if WHG’s recommendations have stayed the same, it may look better to simply repeat it for 2007 and 2008).
That said, the fact that WebHostingGeeks do not appear to edit or remove negative comments about some of their recommended hosting companies is certainly a good sign. Many other sites would sacrifice honesty in the hope of gaining a few more affiliate sales - this site appears to have taken the long term view, in terms of gaining trust with visitors to ensure that they will return in the future, should their hosting needs changed.
