Compare Our Top Recommended Hosts

So you've probably seen elsewhere that we recommend 2 main hosts at this site. The two hosts are different. They are both FANTASTIC and IX Web Hosting just outranks HostGator as our favourite but they both have fantastic elements and we've got heaps of sites hosted at each of them.

Here are some quick statistics for you (you can find much, much more in our indepth review of IX Web Hosting and our indepth review of HostGator)

IX Web Hosting - Champion - 1st Place

• Plans from $4.95 to $12.95 per month
• Host unlimited domains on your account
• Unlimited Web Space for your website!
• Unlimited Data Transfer for your website!
• Free domain registrations (the number of freebies depends on which plan you go on but they give you at least one)
• Dedicated IPs (this is a great perk and varies between 1 and 16, once again, depending on your plan choice)
• Ecommerce Ready - Meaning that you're all good to go with an SSL secure certificate and even a free, easy to setup, online osCommerce shopping cart!
