As a young entrepreneur I've decided to only patronize local host I'm Nigeria. I both host on Qservers and whoghost.

from experience both are good and have excellent customer support.

Qserver has really good service but would give headache to newie programmers as their default php version is I think 7.0 or 6.5 not really sure but you could ask them to downgrade it for you. Also they've disabled mail() function so it's difficult sending mails.


Whogohost is really good as they don't have much problems with scripts but I've encountered one major problem with them before I.e. my websites does not load on glo network after sometime. while the same glo opens all other website I had on Qserver. so I was told to clear cache on my browser. it worked but I'm sure you know it's not normal..

my personal experience tho

Stay away from smartweb, they are just an apology and scam at Tue same time. I tried them twice and they have proved to be unfit, u will hardly be able to install your site, and when u do, u can't update.
Qservers.net is a good one.
.
I own farmersjoint.com and I have been hosting it on
smartweb since 2014. Site installalatn and updates have been easy for me. I will recommend it for anyone that need a cheap and yet reliable host.

Try unicpage.com or PM me. I can host it for you at discounted rate of $1.5/month, paid yearly.

My servers are in the US and uptime is 99.99999, ie 5 9s.

To get the discount rate above, you must transfer your domain name to unicpage.com. This essentially add one more year to you'd domain registration.

You also get; 2x email addresses each 1g and ftp login+1 x database.

Note:
To get this discount, don't sign up for the hosting package online, create your account transfer your domain name and let me know and I will take care of the rest.

I use whogohost for my blog
www.fototech.com.ng
One issue I have right now is that I am running out of Web disk space and the most funniest thing is that my multimedia files (pictures only) are not even that much.
Why not host ur images on a CDN or cloud flare

Oh, that's good for u. I hope u are not one of their owners. Well, if I knew u, I would have sent u a username and password of a hosted website to see.
I have other websites I hosted with other hosts that haven't given that issue before. And this is the second website from that host I have experienced.
It was when I tried another host I knew it wasn't me.
In fact search on nairaland, there is a thread someone opened on this issue of smartweb.Even to access the cpanel is an issue.
Check this link on nairaland

Look, I have nothing on them, just a bad experience.
I think nairaland should take smartweb off their list because they are fraudulent

I stand with Namecheap, we use it at www.spiracletechnology.com for hosting client sites. We also use Smartweb for buying domain names, we host test sites only there but migrate to namecheap.
Namecheap is great especially with Wordpress, the only issue is with their ip detection system i.e if you switch line, your cp will not load full feature accessibility but customer care is so great too which handle such one time. Check us at www.spiracletechnology.com

I guess you didn't understand my post. What I meant was that you shouldn't pay for 3 years at once. Of course, I've been using Hostgator since 2012, but I pay monthly and that's fine by me.

Paying for more than one year at once isn't advisable, not because the hosting company might start offering crappy services, but because your needs might change. For example, your site might start pulling massive traffic and you'd need to get your own dedicated server, which Namecheap doesn't offer at the moment.
U're right

That's the plan I've been using with them since 2012. But I'm seriously considering moving all my sites to Namecheap.

But as a note of warning, don't make the mistake of paying for any hosting service for 3 years at once. Anything can happen along the line, and getting a refund can be hard.
Alright bro. thanks a lot. I really appreciate this

Thank you Yinka for that observation.

Which observation?

Dont go and start taking advantage of his mistake to make your own point.

I never posted a lot of affiliate links. There is one affiliate link and the other is a link to a post in my website.

I only made use of lots of colors for emphasis.

And when he said that at the beginning, I overlooked it because i know the colors is what he is mistaking as lots of links.

So, don't just start.

..
I am not one of their owners. I'm just telling u my experience. When I had problem with them was when I was still a newbie, not knowing how to handle simple error messages, and some of them were actually my fault. At a later time my site got hacked due to old, unudated plugins and they did not have a backup. But after those initial crisis I've not had any problem with them. If u can state the exact problem u face maybe I can help u. Also open an urgent ticket.
.
The links u shared also have people that like smartweb, so I think it is an issue of newbies or so.

Cloud flare isnt a Web hosting company rather CDN company.
Re: Webmasters Lets Share Our Experience With Web Hosting Services by Youngzedd(m): 7:28am On Nov 22, 2017

I beg to differ. I have hosted my highest-traffic site with them for three years now, and I've never had a single issue with them. I'm on their VPS plan, though, so I don't know if you're complaining about their shared hosting.

But the truth is inmotionhosting.com can be expensive. They charge me $299 every 6 months. Thats $50 per month!

You dey mind that dude.

The dude that cannot list a single reason. InMotionHosting and siteground na top players in the game.

Inside: Something better than that web hosting you wanted to buy

Hello Dear,

We’ve all gotten gifts we wish had never been placed on this earth. But this gift I have for you? It’s not one of ‘em.

If you’re interested in learning more, click here www.w3programs.com/hosting or send me an email via darlington@w3programs.com.

But you gonna miss the discount by then.

So hurry now,
