Very good features!

Hostmonster has worked out well for me. Their servers are very fast and have a lot of options. One thing I really like is the ability to host multiple websites on my account without having to pay for another hosting account. I was able to setup a website for my business and one for my Church. I used Wordpress for my business and Joomla for our church website. It took less than 5 minutes to install Wordpress. One thing that I really like is that they use cPanel control panel. A lot of other web hosting companies use their own “knockoff” of cPanel which just isn’t the same! Nothing comes close to the features of cPanel. It’s so easy to create email accounts, install a new website and much more.
