Welcome to The 12 Best Hosts

How to choose the right hosting? Well, you already know the answer: go to any of the Host Rating sites, and pick the winner! But then, which Host Rating site to pick? After a while, you start realizing that all the offers are pretty similar; whoever offers the best deal, is probably the one that has the slowest customer support, which makes sense. On the other hand, a hefty price tag is not always a sign of quality. Price differences are marginal anyway. Is it about technical specifications then? If you indeed need terabytes of bandwidth, chances are you are a huge site and have already figured out your hosting issues. Same with hard disk space, unlimited domains, etc. So, unless you have specific technical requirements, like the kind of control panel you like to use, or the platform - linux, windows - or perhaps a preferred payment method - such as PayPal - then choosing becomes a matter of comparing the presentations, bonuses, styles; people end up picking the site that was visually attractive; or, pick some hosts, then enter "hate+hosting name" one by one, and see who has fewer search results. Eventually, even after picking the hosting that looks fantastic, you still could have problems with it. And even after deciding for a seemingly unpopular one, you could be happier than a pig in mud. Question remains, how do you take that final decision?

We decided to help simplify things by offering five selection tools. The first one is a quick comparison table of 12 popular hosts with a proven track record. The second is reviews by users themselves. The most voted hosts are on top. The third selection tool is our most popular one: Hosting Lottery! We encourage you to give up hard thinking. Especially since it won't guarantee 100% satisfaction anyway. So why not let the fate decide? Relax, click on Lotto button and one host will be chosen for you at random. It's like flipping a coin - if things go wrong, at least you don't blame yourself. Also, check out our Hosting Horoscope - click on your zodiac sign and see what host is recommended for you this month. Stars are never wrong!

Finally, for Starbucks goers we have the tool of ultimate precision: say what you drink and see what your hosting should be. It's not too late to switch...
