As far as price and features go, Dreamhost is a great service. I have used them to host many domains for nearly 3 years and have been mostly satisfied. HOWEVER, a word of warning: their billing department has messed things up more than once, and they seem to be incompetent. If it were not for this, along with the fact that they offer no phone support, I would recommend Dreamhost. However, these complaints are unfortunately significant enough for me to recommend that you look somewhere else for hosting.

I have tried 3 other web host providers, none of which even came close to what dreamhost provides at the price. The only other host that comes close that I haven't used, but read about, is lunarpages. If you're looking for a well maintained professional hosting provider, go dreamhost. If you're looking for the very very best for your business, I have heard pair.com is excellent but expensive.

DreamHost is by far the best hosting company I’ve used. I build websites and I’ve dealt with dozens of hosting companies. I recommend DreamHost to all of my clients and I use them for my sites.

There are so many positives and few negatives. DreamHost is very competitive in pricing, sure there are cheaper hosting companies, as well as there are more expensive ones too. I’ve found that for the price, you get a lot with DreamHost, too many for me to list here. You can check their site for a full list of features.

I have been using DreamHost for just under two years and it just keeps getting better. It seems like every month their newsletter is mentioning added features.

I recommend DreamHost to anyone who is looking for reliable hosting at a good price.
