I have been busy doing my research on setting on my website, So far I have only found blue host suitable for my needs as I want to create a page with wordpress MU. The reason being it is an open source I would likely be able to find something that is suitable for my plugin rather that develop something on my own. So far, I have found some cheaper ones, however does not support wordpress mu, because it does not have wildcard DNS. While those that have cost $100 or more per month and it still have limited space and so on. I am not too sure if I have found the perfect one however this are the plus point I have experience with them 1. prompt support when I have queries. 2. unlimited bandwidth. 3. $75 promotion with that package 4. free domain. So anyone have experience with them or think there is another host that is much better?

I have been with BlueHost for many years and they are perfect for me. I spent a lot of time studying and comparing services and as you say there are some cheaper, but BlueHost has really qood support, zero downtime, and all the features I need. Even when they did not offer the unlimited bandwidth, they offered good value. I think they are exceptional.

Thanks again as you are very prompt in your respond. I would like to ask about the free domain that provide, do they allow full control on your part. it is registered under you or under bluehost? Thanks again for all the help.

I'm not sure about full control, but they give as much control as I have ever needed. I think their tools and dashboard are phenomenal. When you do a whois lookup the registration and administration are individual, but the technical goes to BlueHost. They used to keep your name and address confidential, but that changed when the law changed. I don't know about other areas. I am on the Pacific West Coast US.

Well my friend, so did you have a good experience with monster host? anyway I am quite decide on blue host for two reasons, 1. they are able to support wildcard DNS - which is important if you want to use wordpress MU. 2. They are very responsive, I could almost get a reply within 12 hours. Cheers. have fun.
