can anyone tell me hosting companies that are having fast servers, for PHP and MySql?

lunarpages has good servers. but if you want truly fast servers, you will want a dedicated or vps. which starts at $50/month.

php and mysql are software on the server, so the speed of the server in general would be the factor.

I would recommend bluehost. I have found them to very fast with excellent uptime and support. With a positive feedback of 97% from a survey we have done. Other options you can choose from startlogic or lunarpages

bluehost look nice, also accept other domain to be included, but did u tested it? It's fast?

I almost went with bluehost, I called their sales support (normaly faster to get to) to ask a question about their servers, they didnt know. so I called tech, the same guy answered.......

yes. We have tested bluehost and the reason why Iam rating them higher is that they are moving up (in numbers faster) every day. The servers are fast. You can try yourself as they offer 30 days money back guarantee.

dan1088352 has mentioned that he didn't got reply from the tech guy. So Send them an email, ask questions about your requirement, try to talk to them on phone. You will get to know about their support. If you are satisfied with their support, make a checklist for your requirement and the features you need. If all the features you need (example php, mysql, cronjobs, etc..) are avaialble in their hosting plan, read their terms of service and then pay for your account.

You can try with all the top hosts this procedure, and pay the one with which you are satisfied. Remember today most of the hosts offer money back guarantee.

I already found a host. and I did get a reply, it was just from the same guy.

how much did the #1 spot cost? just as a question

To dan1088352:

adalmi wanted a host with faster servers. I have recommended him bluehost because the recent survey which we have done, (5000+ webmasters), bluehost got the highest amount of votes in the question regarding speed.

Secondly, I have told to check with top hosts by sending them an email, phone, checkilist, tOS, etc. And not blindly signup with any recommendation.

You have mentioned some reviews (bad experiences by customers from hosts who are my top 10 list). Let me tell you, there is no single host in the industry who doesn't have a customer with bad experience. You have said lunarpages is good in your above post. I agree with that and I have also mentioned them in the above post of mine. That doesn't mean that lunarpages has all positive reviews. Let me show you some negative reviews for lunarpages.

How much the number one spot cost?
Ask http://www.webhostingunleashed.com.(since you feel they are unbiased). The way the links to webhosts site are redirected in http://www.webhostingunleashed.com is same as in my site.

That doesn't mean that lunarpages has all positive reviews. Let me show you some negative reviews for lunarpages.

but on site 1, the post is old, the topic is doted 12-16-2004, they have cleaned up their act since. the reviews I gave where all for more recent than that. and the 2nd site doesnt accept comments on it (unless negitave), so that cant be taken credible for anything.

You have mentioned some reviews (bad experiences by customers from hosts who are my top 10 list). Let me tell you, there is no single host in the industry who doesn't have a customer with bad experience.

but doesnt it seem a little weird that most of your top 10 hosts all caught a negirave rating?

almost all your "top 10" hosts ended up awful. and dont try to tell me that I am blindly going off of review, I have used a few of them. webhostingunleashed is a review site that only takes outside reviews, I have submitted some. yours is one of those top 10 sites that sell the spots to whoever buys them, webhosts will do that for publicity. and people sometimes put refferal links in to get them money. and dont call webhostingunleashed uncredbile when you dont even accept outside reviews, you are one to talk about sold positions.

Search for the term "Lunar Pages Sucks" on google and you will find loads of reviews (negative). Reviews whic are recent. Again let me tell you there is not a single host in the industry who is not having customers with bad experience.

By the way most of the hosts on the site you mentioned the so call UNBIASED reviews has a loads of negative reviews too. Put the word sucks after the hostname and search you will find yourself.

however, webhostingunleashed accepts both reviews, most of those sucks ones only accept negitave reviews. and if your website is so "unbias" why is there no "submit review" thing there? all I see is what you put, pointing to a bought and paid for position
