A lot of the time when searching for a host you'll most likely come across a "Top hosting provider" site like our very own HostSocial, which basically provides a full list of hosting providers within certain countries or regions. The site usually has a few features so you can filter what you'd like to choose from a hosting provider, such as "US providers" or "UK providers" - you can also specify the amount of space/month transfer and how much you'd like to pay for a hosting package.

The best thing you can do when visiting such sites is to take a look at their user ratings and customer feedback.  Their ratings will be displayed next to the hosting provider in a list with ratings from 1 star to 10 stars (10 stars being the best rating possible and 1 being the worst) which users and customers have "rated" that specific company.

If you are a customer of that specific hosting company you can register on the top hosting providers website and leave feedback next to that hosting companies name - the much more and better feedback a company gets obviously means that the hosting provider offers a decent service and is most likely worth a try.

You may find that some of the best and most popular hosting providers are usually on the first page of search engines as they have spent a lot of money on advertising and promoting their website and business thus most likely a professional business that is committed to the industry.

There are still tonnes of web hosting companies out there that have not yet been discovered completely by the public so it's always worth searching forums and search engines for less popular but reliable hosting providers so you get better speeds at brilliant prices.

5 Top US based Web Hosts.

Most web hosting companies are good in all flavours of the web industry but just like any other industry you get the clowns that are here to seek out some quick dough but are then quick enough to get out the industry when they realise they're making no quick money offering web hosting services.  These are usually 14-16 year old kids who've managed to get in mommy and daddy's good books so they can use their paypal account - or if lucky enough their own paypal account.  While you do get these 14-16 year old kids that are just here to spoil the party you really do get some young teens that really do love the business with a passion and have a decent business online already making some serious money - which is hard to believe I know.

You will often find a lot of these kiddie hosts when visiting web development and hosting forums creating threads with all their server specs and services with a VERY cheap pricing structure. I'm not trying to knock all teens as some of them are very reliable - but I’d suggest keeping away from the ones that can hardly spell or their website design looks like it's been made by their little brothers and sisters, don't get yourself in that hole it's really not worth the hassle so avoid all.

This is when the good use of our popular hosting service "Reseller Account" or "Master Reseller Account" comes into play. Fortunately enough for these young teens they can have a paper round and still be able to pay for their monthly reseller costs thanks to the cheap prices - which isn't good news for you webmasters and developers out there. These kiddie hosts will quite literally get into your pockets and not even give you the service they promise in return because if they are unlucky not to have a paper round they'll not be able to afford these monthly reseller costs thus having to shut up shop and that will be the last you hear from them.

Some Blue Host Reviews here.

As you are already aware, there are thousands of web hosting companies to choose from in today’s market and pretty much all of them offer it with a good service at a very low price - thanks to the extremely competitive hosting market.  Reviews of US hosting companies like this one situated all across the web it makes it easy for webmasters to find their dream host they've waited long enough for.  These reviews of the companies are in no specific order but are 6 of the best US web hosting providers out there in today’s market.

1. Hostgator

Definitely one of the most popular hosting companies to date, the company does oversell its resources but no one has ever had any problems as they do have a lot of resources to provide for everyone across hundreds of servers. Prices are obviously very cheap as they oversell, but don't let this put you off they are truly a reliable company.

2. DreamHost

DreamHost are one of the biggest web hosting companies in the world and have been around for years.  They have a huge client base but they really are very reliable and extremely cheap supported by a massive community of fans.  They don't have cpanel but offer their own control panel which I think is infinitely superior allowing all the typical 1 click installs you would expect.  I also use dreamhost for this blog and you can find some discount coupons on This Page.

3. Godaddy

Known as a domain registrar more than anything - but their web hosting services are also just as good. Not the cheapest around but this company is as reliable as they come. Support is amazing with 24/7 around the clock technicians to see to all support requests.

4. LunarPages

Named after a Star Trek episode, Lunarpages provide clients with reliable technical support and customer service - for a big host this is particularly impressive with a 24-7 award winning customer support.  Like Dreamhost you can host multiple domains with the one account.  Lunar pages also offer 99.9% uptime to over 150,000 customers worldwide and you also get a free domain for the life of your account.  Highly recommended.

5. JustHost

A very well populated hosting provider across the net, the feedback from customers is amazing and they are in many of the top 10 us hosting company sites - usually first! All of their clients are very happy with the service their hosting provider promises them, fast, good support and best of all value for money.

In this case it was due to using an installer such as Fantastic or Installatron to initially setup WordPress, a manual install over my current install fixed this.  There is Further research here on WordPress.org also.

The solution is to download this version of http.php and install it over your own wp-includes/http.php file. Presto! all good to go.
