Dreamhost is offering one year full hosting package at only $9.24 for the first year!
Key features :
- Unlimited storage, bandwidth, domains
- 1 Free domain registration
- MySQL, PHP Support
- POP, SMTP, IMPA
- and so much more….
This is an exceptional offer, and as a customer of Dreamhost since a few months now, I am very satisfied with their service.
I have been with a few hosting companies since years now, and I can tell you, DreamHost is the best (till now).
Don’t read reviews on internet, they are sometimes biased!
I went to a “no 1” ranked hosting company, but they s**k!
You want an ultra cheap first year web hosting? Sign up now!
btw, yashvinblogs.com is hosted on Dreamhost and was purchased on a $10 promo during St Valentine’s Day!
Be quick!
And what about your hosting?
Are you satisfied?

@Yudz : Yeah, I know.
But as I mentioned, I have been to the no1 ranked hosting, and everyday I had issues with them, for $5?
I prefer paying more, and have my blog running all day long.
Anyway, Check out the price if you take for example 2years, then gonna be
1st year : $10
2nd year : $120
Total for 2 yrs : $130
Average for 1 yr : $75
Average for 1 month : $6.25!!!!
Isnt it nice???
@Sun : Don’t know exactly since it is still valid.
Even when I took it month ago, the date was extended continuously.
@Yadhav : Too bad, limited plugins and themes… without forgetting a customized domain name 🙂
@Carrot : Google Rulz!
I wonder why Google hasn’t any hosting offer yet 😦
I guess Google want you to use only blogspot, its personalized pages, picasa, youtube, but no ‘hosting’.

I have 7 websites hosted on DreamHost now. 😀 They seem to have those $10 offers quite often.
I have had some problems though:
-They took 2 weeks to process my request. I had to contact their support and then my account was activated
-My site has gone down 7 times: 3 times some guy was hosting a file sharing site on the same server as me. The other times were various problems I don’t remember
-I can’t edit my php installation (or something like that) (I don’t know much about php btw). I need to increase the max upload size for my websites(the limit is 7mb). According to what I read, I need to change a value in a file called php.ini(whatever that is). However I can’t do this as I’m on a shared server and only the administrator has the rights to edit this file. (It realy sucks as I have 2 scripts on my website, Chevereto and AjaXplorer, in which I need more than a 7mb upload limit)
-Speed when uploading by SFTP is sloooooow 😦
(I should mention that DreamHost support has been very helpful and friendly when I contacted them)
There are some things that I really like though:
-One-click installs(I can install WordPress, Drupal and many others with a single click, even the MySQL tables are created)
-Friendly and helpful support(as I mentioned above)
-Intuitive and easy to use interface for management(the dreamhost panel)
-Auto configure domains with Google Apps for Your Domain
I think it’s really worth it for $10 🙂

@sjdvda :
On the day after I purchased my account, their panel was down for nearly half day.
It was very discouraging, but later on discovering their status blog I found out that the team kept all the users updated about each of their crash on their servers, and also, any maintenance plans.
After this incident, I never faced ANY other problem with them.
As for your php ini file, as far as I know, you cannot change it since you are on a shared server.
However, for normal users, there is no need to change the values there.
But as you said, there is a limit on the upload capacity, and I guess these values are set for everyone as a FUP LOL!!!
Slow ftp speed? I never experienced that.
Their support is very friendly indeed!!!
Its unfortunate that they don’t have a live chat support system 😦
Its really worth the price, even if I have to pay more next year.
But as I commented before, even by paying more, the price will remain around 6-7$ per month…

I got the best deal at a reputed hosting company $3.99 per months 😀 with 2 dedicated IP (and oh unlimited space, domain the usual stuff)
http://www.ixwebhosting.com/index.php/v2/pages.dspmain
Actually I then took the Unlimited Pro plan for 2 years that gives 3 domains and 15 fixed IP’s along with a friend.
Lallmatie.com is hosted on Bluehost however. Been with them for over 3 years already. I have friends hosting at IX Web for 4 years.

Just checked Fodyhost.mu I think it’s not hosted in Mauritius. Fodyhost.mu IP is 72.44.90.251 which is in Michigan, USA!
I know only about ISP’s that do web hosting here. If you know anyone else who does, drop me an email. I’m looking for local hosting for two projects currently.
