Use BlueHost Hosting

Aug 28, 2012Clients Only, Thoughts

HostGator and BlueHost are the main hosting solutions I recommend.

They both feature cPanel, 24/7 instant support messaging, have a record of almost NO downtime, are inexpensive and easy to set up. They have tons of built-in features like Fantastico and SimpleScripts.

Here’s a quick video about BlueHost and its integration with WordPress:
