When I started with RW, I used the recommended host LittleOak, which has recently been taken over by JetHost. Currently I have JetHost hosting one website for a client for $80, and another one for myself, with two domains for $80. I rarely used the cPanel, and if I did I usually needed their support team. I like to “set it and forget it” for those of you in my advanced age bracket).
If I switched to Elements hosting, would the total be $144 for hosting both my clients and my own website? The only limit being 10GB storage for all of them together?
I’ll let others answer the “Should I switch” question because obviously I’m biased (yes of course!).
To answer your question about the pricing though, it looks like you are calculating for 1 year, but yes it’s $12/m for the Starter hosting package, so that comes out to $144 annually. It’s not including any domain name registrations or transfers you might want to do, but those are billed annually and you don’t have to register or transfer the domain name to us if you prefer to continue using your current domain registrar.
We don’t use cPanel, it’s ancient and bloated.
Yep you can definitely do that here. We offer a fully managed service so you don’t have to fiddle with any of the technical stuff.
If you’re looking for “set it and forget it” then you should definitely switch over to Elements hosting. DifferentDan (or the OtherDan as I like to can him, there’s two Dans so you occasionally have to differentiate between them), moved my sites over for me while I was on vacation. It was an easy and seamless transition and the server I’m currently on has been rock solid. He also helped me get my e-mail contact form set up.
I’ve used lots of web hosting services in the past and none can compare to the level of service and care that you’ll get from Elements hosting and the folks like DifferentDan who make it happen!
I agree. Dan E (the other Dan) helped me move three sites during a two day process and he provided invaluable help and assistance. I wouldn’t hesitate to use elements hosting.
