Hi Matt
I have two hosting providers and both provide excellent service and give me something that the bigger companies lack -
Personal Service - by that I mean that you can either talk or contact both of my hosts easily, and you feel like you are dealing with a human being rather than someone who is sitting at their desk still researching the English language whilst listening to your problem and then having to read up themselves the solution because they don't have the answer
Also Uptime is an important factor and both hosts have had virtually zero problems on that side
I use
And
*removed*
And I have 2 hosts because *removed* provide a forum software that I use and as part of their package, hosting includes
free premium forum software (which means I don't have to pay extra for that). Also I know the owner and he really helped me switch out from my previous and highly inept provider going back more than a year
With Web Hosting UK I again host several sites (in fact I've just added another 2 recently) and again, their service is FIRST CLASS so when it comes to support (if required) they are really on the ball too
I like both hosting providers equally and I am always happy to recommend either to people I know. I don't particularly have a favourite between the two companies, and for me, both score a 10 out of 10 for equal or different merits
