How To Choose Your Hosting Company?
September 8th, 2008 | Dizzy Dee
I have written about webhosting before, and given various guidelines on how to decide whether you need free hosting or maybe your own domain.
If you’ve come to the conclusion that you do need your own domain, and you’re asking the question, “where do I get someone to host for me”, this post might just answer your question.
When hosting your website with a company, you need to be sure that you can trust them in more ways than one. Firstly, you need to make sure that the money you are paying is really going to get you what you need.
You need to consider various things, amongst other, the space which you get, the traffic limitations, as well as the support.
I’ve come accross the WebHostingRating website, and found it quite useful. They basically have independant ratings of hosting websites, with details of those hosting companies’ services and fees.
Its definitelysomething to look at and consider before choosing your webshosting company 
For those of you who are particularly interested in affordable webhosting, possibly for a personal website, have a look at their article: How To Find A Cheap Web Host.

I ended up using DreamHost.com (http://www.dreamhost.com) for my domain name hosting as they offered a huge hosting package at a great price. I signed up for a two year hosing service with a promotional code.
“GREEDY” was the code I used and it gave me 3 extra FREE lifetime Domain Registrations
There are loads of codes out there here are a few more I have found:
“FATBOY” – 50% extra Disk Space + 10% extra Monthly Bandwidth.
“WIDELOAD” – 10% extra Disk Space + 50% extra Monthly Bandwidth.
“SMOOTHY” – 10% extra Disk Space + 10% extra Monthly Bandwidth + $50.00 off 2YR.
“SPECTECH” – 1 extra FREE lifetime Domain Registration + 1 lifetime unique IP Address.
All I needed were the free domains but the others are all pretty good.
