I think that Marblehost.com will be the best solution for me to use their shared hosting services, because it specializes on this hosting solution. But I want to know another people stand point, before buying their hosting. Could you comment something?

Marblehost.com looks like a reseller - which is fine, as long as you get the service you need.

I do not see anything remarkable there, I can offer you the same services at a slightly lower rate (I am a reseller too - but as a web developer I am pretty choosy about the hosting I recommend). My plans also include a free domain and a 30 day money-back guarantee.

My web hosting sales site (in the sig) is hosted through the same company whose services I am selling.

I also have my own accounts at BlueHost (so-so), HotDrupal (not proven yet), Freespace.net (yep - free) and StartLogic (need some garlic and a cross - stay away!)

I think this company just resells from someone else. It is better to go with a company which provides sevrices based on their own equipment.

I can suggest you looking up gazzin.com - it is even possible to try their services free, for one month period.

I don't know why you guys have such an attitude towards Marblehost.com. To my mind, it is reliable company. If you are desperately looking for shared hosting, I can express the point that you should trust the company which specializes on delivering shared hosting. I've had a good run with company.

As for me I'd recommend you to have a look at sharkspace.com. They specializes in website application hosting including php hosting and mysql hosting. And their prices are affordable.

I think that you should trust the company which has narrow specialization. Marblehost.com focuses on delivering shared hosting plans. Besides, it has a great variety of free bonuses for you. Prices are not very expensive. Top notch support is intellectually gifted and always ready to help you.

I'd strongly recommend you services from glowhost.com. Their web site hosting packages are ideal for small to medium-sized business and high-traffic personal sites that require the most reliable web presence available in a shared hosting environment. These services include complimentary nightly AND weekly backups. Also included are unlimited complimentary backup restoration services.

I think that you will make the right decision, if you deal with Marblehost.com. Even when they do encounter a fault, they are quick and responsive about it. You know, "a good beginning makes a good ending" - this proverb is related to this company. So, it depends on you what company to choose.

If you want to predict the future, look at the past...

I can recommend you to use shared hosting services from Webhostingbuzz.com, they have updated their services significantly and prices became cheaper. I have seen that they provide some discounts on their shared and reseller services that give the ability to use their services 50% cheaper.

Agree, resellers may not be as reliable as the providers which deliver hosting based in their own datacenter, with own network. You see, resellers depende much on their provider, and clients in their turn, depend on the reseller, thus being twice dependent. I recommend you to look up something more independent. For instance, ServerPoint.com provides good services and is very much reliable. They own network and datacenter where they host your sites and their prices are affordable.
BTW, what is your budget?
