Web Host?

iPage wants to charge me $12/mo on my 24mo renew. This feels steep. Any suggestions on a host for my site?
 
What do you require and I can give you an informed answer.
 
On a facebook group I belong to, several users recommend parakeetsites.com (it's managed by another user in that same group). $9 a month.
 
$12/month is a lot for your needs. You just need simple hosting with minimal RAM, etc.

For $3/month (same 24 mos prepay) you can go with http://247-host.com and get this:

Or pay quarterly and it's $4.99/month if you don't like 2 year prepay. And other offers.

Or check out the rest of the offers here in the yellow stickies: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/forumdisplay.php?f=4

I trust WHT when it comes to hosting provider reviews, and usually, the yellow sticky offers are from reputable vendors.

I can't personally recommend any, sorry. Do your due diligence. Look at all the offers there, then search the forum there for talk about them.

Hosting companies you may want to shy away from are owned by EIG, a hosting conglomerate that gobbles up companies and then what happens is the they go downhill and support lacks. EIG sites: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endurance_International_Group

Funnily enough your iPage is owned by EIG.

Hope this info helps!
