Suggestions for Hosting Companies?

[AARRGGHHH]

I'm a former Go Daddy customer and plan on keeping it that way.  I've contacted justhost, but they seem to only offer yearly billing.  Suggestions are welcomed.   

Thank you

This thread is likely to be targeted by advertisers. It will be hard to distinguish honest answers from companies trying to sell you their own hosting and I do not want to permit advertising on the forums.

My recommendation is to determine exactly what you need from a web host, compile a list of web hosts and then select one that best matches those criteria.

Some things to consider are:

• Which server-side languages, libraries and tools are provided by the web host.
• Whether you would like more control or more convenience. Many web hosts will have a server already prepared for you with all of the necessary server software, but you might prefer to have a dedicated server and the freedom to install anything you want onto it.
• Having a server located close to your target audience. If your audience is in the USA, then a USA-based server will load faster for them. You could choose to use cloud hosting to distribute your website to servers around the world.
• The amount of processing power and memory of the servers. If you're writing your own simple pages in HTML or PHP then you don't need a powerful server. If you're using a CMS, a more powerful server may help load pages faster.

Once you found a few web hosts that provide the service that you want, compare prices and reviews for them. Try to select the most reliable web host which also falls within a reasonable price range.
