2. FogHost Shared Linux Hosting : Best overall value in terms of bang for the buck and overall reliability. From our tests we have not experienced any downtime at all. Cheap domain names with free website builder and shopping cart and blog.

4. We do not bombard you with tons of banners all over our site.
5. We randomly pick a web hosting or dedicated hosting company for review.
6. Sometimes we host ourselves (this website) with one of the dedicated hosting firms.
7. We weed out one man operations and resellers pretending to be a real web hosting company.
8. We DO NOT promote web hosting or dedicated hosting companies that advertise in this website.
