Hello!

I hope you ladies don't mind me asking a question in here.
I am not really a web designer, but I do run the websites for our small town as a service to the community. I've had them hosted on Bluehost for the past two years, which is who I used to use when I blogged a while back. I've heard some negatives about them lately, that people are having trouble with Denial of Service issues and I'm doing a little research to see if we should keep the sites there or not.
It is a governmental website, so having a pretty reliable service is important, but we also have a very small budget as the small town we are.
Has anyone had any problems with bluehost or have any recommendations for a good hosting service?

Thanks!
Josie

I love Powweb, they give you a lot more flexibility over what kinds of scripts you can and can't run, configuring your php.ini file, and your .htaccess file. They are reasonably priced to. A lot of people like host gator, but I've never used them.

BTW, not only ladies post here :-P

My apologies! I keep forgetting it isn't just "moms" in the work at home mom forums!

Thanks for the advice- I'll take a look!

Our other site hosted in Bluehost and the other one on Hostgator. So far I have no problem using Bluehost or maybe I am missing something. But I like Hostgator more, been using it for years.

I like web hosting pad it is inexpensive and great customer service I send alot of my clients on a budget to them considering you can get 4 years hosting for $100.
