1&1 truly does offer something for every type of user. This web hosting service company has plans for basic users to developers. The real bargain here is getting the robust in-house designed and supported 1&1 web design applications and the two free lifetime domain registrations.

![]() Bluehost |
![]() Read Full Review |
While Bluehost is price higher than some in the web hosting space, the price is justified when one takes a close look at data transfer speeds.

![]() GoDaddy |
![]() Read Full Review |
GoDaddy will attract users based on its brand-awareness and popularity but the bells and whistles stop there. Pay close attention to the features of each plan and don't choose the cheapest plan you find. This is though a decent choice for the home user who doesn't require lots of disk space or eCommerce support. |
![]() Host Papa |
![]() Read Full Review |
While light on features, HostPapa does provide options for users who really aren't sure how long they want to commit. Essentially, you choose your price based on the length of commitment you are willing to sign for. Moderate pricing, basic services combined with a green hosting plan makes this a decent choice for intermediate web developers. |
![]() Inmotion Hosting |
![]() Read Full Review |
The key with InMotion is to really do your research before signing up for a plan. Be sure that you're choosing the correct type of plan and then the correct level within that plan. The InMotion web site clearly shows what you get and don't get with each plan - so take your time and do some reading. Depending on your skill set and what you want, this just might be the web hosting service plan company for you. |
![]() Intuit |
![]() Read Full Review |
Uptime speed and stability are definitely high on the want list of any web site developer, but the strong scores of Intuit in these options does not outweigh the limitations of its plans. |
![]() iPage |
![]() Read Full Review |
A cheap monthly plan, a one-year contract, free domain registration for life, features that satisfy both individuals and small business owners - iPage really does have a lot to offer.

![]() IX Web Hosting |

![]() Just Host |
![]() Read Full Review |
If you're looking for straight-forward web hosting and web site design services at an affordable rate, Just Host is a good choice. We can't speak for the customer service but comments on the WWW have wavered on the friendliness and attentiveness of Just Host customer service representatives. |
![]() Register.com |
![]() Read Full Review |
While the peace-of-mind features (virus scan and automated backup) are really nice to have, these do not outshine the high price combined with limited options. With a cap on data storage and with only one MySQL database included, this is not the choice for business users. For individuals though, this could be a reasonable option - but pay attention to the price. |
