| Dwarf's Full Review: Affordable Host |
Affordable Host works to keep the customers happy. One example is the way the hosting plans are set up. If none of the plans will work for your site, the owner, Tina Peters, is open to setting up custom plans to suit your needs.
In my experience it is easy to get in contact with Tina. She hangs around in newsgroups and has been very helpful, both to customers and people who are not customers. She is happy to answer your questions.
The prices are also affordable, as the name suggests. I have my site hosted for $45/year right now. With the low prices, one might question the quality of the service. The downtime is very low. In the six months my site has been hosted by Affordable Host, I experienced one or two down times, being less than an hour each. Update: there was a week or so when once in awhile my site went down for a few minutes at a time. It has since been fixed.
Although 24/7 support isn't listed, I find that the e-mail (and phone support, if necessary) are quite sufficient. My e-mail queries have been answered the same day they were sent. There is now a help desk set up for support. There is also an extensive FAQ on the web page that answered many of my questions.
On a side note, other services are available, including domain registration and web site design services. I have not used either of those, though.
