Dreamhost review
Size matters, what is the size of the hosting company?:
DreamHost is one of the largest shared hosting companies based in the US. It offers its services for more than ten years.
Domain Registration:
DreamHost offers free domain name with their hosting plans. One could also register additional .com, .net, .org or .info domain name for $9.95 per year.
DreamHost offers free domain privacy for every registered domain.
They also have well organized and easy to use DNS control panel with advanced features like MX records, PTR, TXT records.
Hosting Services:
DreamHost offers cheap shared hosing and scalable VPS hosting services at reasonable prices.
All their servers are Debian Linux based and secured with grsec patches.
They have reseller options using promo codes. This options is accessible for all their customers.
DreamHost offers dedicated IP addresses on demand. The cost of a dedicated IP is $47.40 per year.
Speed:
DreamHost servers are located in the US. They offer one of the fastest hosting services for its price.
Uptime:
Uptime will sometimes be an issue for their oldest server configuration. However they started migrating to new Xeon machines and their hosting very reliable now. I am hosted on one of these machines and experienced no downtime for more than 2 months.
Server setup:
DreamHost offers unlimited disk space and traffic to all its customers. There is no limitation to the number and size of MySQL databases, mailboxes and hosted domains. They also offer 50GB of backup space for every user.
Admin Control Panels:
One of the biggest DreamHost cons is that they do not offer cPanel, neither Plesk, but they have their fully functional proprietary control panel.
Email Option:
DreamHost provides IMAP, POP3, SMTP and Webmail services. They have SquirrelMail and RoundCube available.
Support:
DreamHost support is working 24/7. Everytime I had some difficulties using their services I used the support contact form and DreamHost support desk contacted me within two hours.
The also have paid telephone support for their customers.
Conclusion:
I am using DreamHost services since May 2007 and I am very happy with it. They always offered great support and good prices for their hosting and domain registration services.
Your rating our of 10?:
9 out 10 (because of the few hours of downtime since I registered with their services)
