A tip for people new to web hosting...
Back-up your site regardless of whether your hosting company "says" they will do it for you. Believe me, you may appreciate it some day.

Lunarpages Web Hosting	Ranked #1
Founded by Add2Net, Inc., Lunarpages has been serving web sites for five years. Like iPowerWeb, Lunarpages has been in the industry for a sufficient amount of time to be a credible host. Lunarpages promises and delivers excellent uptime, and response times to trouble tickets and support e-mails are outstanding. We've seen response times in as little as under five minutes at times. For the price you pay and the amount of space, features, and support you get, Lunarpages is our top recommendation.

Startlogic Web Hosting	Ranked #2
Although Startlogic looks to be a newer company, the people behind Startlogic have actually been involved in the hosting industry for many years. Startlogic is more diverse in terms of the plans it offers -- ranging from basic, Windows, virtual, to even dedicated web hosting. On top of your traditional means of support, Startlogic also offers a number of other useful ways to help you overcome your problems (see below). Above average server uptime has also been seen with this company.

iPowerWeb Web Hosting	Ranked #3
Hosting over 200,000 web sites in the world, iPowerWeb is probably one of the largest web hosting providers today. They are evidently very efficient at dealing with customers given the vast number of new registrations they receive daily. Because the company was established in 1999, we can bet that they will still be around for years to come. They've shown that quantity hasn't surpassed quality. They're offering the same level of service they did back when their customer base was just under 1,000. Backed by a friendly support team, iPowerWeb continues to impress.

Midphase Web Hosting	Ranked #4
In about three years, Midphase has grown from hosting just several hundred web sites to several thousand. Although Midphase is a smaller company, they have shown that they are capable of dealing with many customers on any given day. One highlight about Midphase is their "SimpleSite Wizard", which basically lets you design and develop a web site without knowing any HTML at all. Uptime and support with this company has also been above average.

Yahoo Web Hosting	Ranked #5
Yahoo offers web hosting that is targeted towards the small business owner. Being the Internet's number one brand, we can safely assume that Yahoo currently hosts in the tens of thousands of customers. The company itself has been around since 1997, has relatively easy-to-use tools to help you get your site started, and has great uptime and support. It's no doubt that Yahoo would live up to its promises as they have shareholders who are watching their every move.
