Flywheel and WPEngine are the best in my opinion, great for freelancers and almost industry standard. But I do like Kinsta’s interface.

In reply to Brian.

Thanks for your comment. I use Host Gator and discovered my sites were down. They told me it had to do with my cache and that I needed to clear it. This never happened to me before and I can’t assume the visitors to my website will know they will need to do this. They’ll just leave and never come back. Hostgator said to to prevent this from happening, paste this to your domain .htaccess:

ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault A1
Header append Cache-Control must-revalidate

Does that sound right to you?

Thanks for sharing such an informative article.
I have been using HostGator and SiteGround and they are great. I never faced any difficulty. Hostgator is easy to use.

I just attempted to sign up for DreamHost managed WordPress hosting, but it went horribly. My credit card company decided to put a hold on the purchase pending my confirmation. DreamHost could not recover from this. They “deactivated” my account so I could try again, but that only allowed me to succeed in purchasing a deactivated account!

It’s possible that they would have eventually figured out how to re-activate the account, but I went a day without hearing from them and then a day in which all they did was asking me if I had attempted the purchase again! That evening a “robot” decided to re-assign my last support request to someone new and informed me that it might be another 24 hours before I heard from anyone. Had I been running a live site with a critical problem (such as being locked out!), I’d have been quite distressed.

Either my case was a series of flukes, or something’s wrong with customer support. However, when I sent an email asking for a refund, they gave it to me promptly, so things can’t be all broken.

It’s a shame, as I had been reading quite good things about their managed hosting.

Stay away from all hosts that use the Fraud Service Site Lock… in this list Blue Host and Host Gator are using that service and will suck 300 out of your pocket to fix problems that do not exist. IMHO this list SUCKs

Thanks for sharing such a resourceful article. I am kinda familiar with almost all of these provider but personally hostgator is way to easy to use compare to other providers.

Great post, thanks for sharing. I’m familiar with BlueHost and Hostgator, must admit I have never had any difficulty with these hosting providers. Also use Go Daddy, and will be checking out the other alternatives. Thanks again for a great post.

I prefer the Bluehost, because I am already using Bluehost, godady, hostgator etc. I think Bluehost is the best among them.

I have two sites running on Inmotion shared hosting.
Today they had suspended my account due to high resource uses.
After too much conversation with them, they lifted the suspension but still, they warn me not use more than 150cp. (as it is the highest resources uses in their shared hosting plan.)
If Inmotionhosting is so good for WordPress then how can they offer such a low resource uses?
Actually, I am facing problems from beginning with Inmotionhosting.
I will never recommend Inmotionhosting to any one
