To get the price of $16.95/ mo you need to pre pay for 1 year of hosting. If you want to pay on a month-to-month basis the price will be slightly higher: $19.95/mo.

Plan features

The DreamPress hosting plans has lots of bells and whistles for your WordPress site. They will install WP for you with several plugins and themes that are considered "battle-tested" by DreamHost. They promise to serve your web pages lightning fast with features like SSD storage, Object Caching, HTTP2, PHP 7 and the Jetpack plugin. You also get access to WordPress Expert Support 24/7.

Migrating to DreamPress

The WordPress Migration Service costs $99 and promises to seamlessly move your WordPress installation over to your new hosting without downtime. It costs $99 which I think is a bit expensive considering you are also moving your hosting to this company. It could be good value though if you have lots of content and plugins that would make your site a real hassle to move and might require paid plugins to get the job done anyways.

Domain price

A .com domain is $11.99 for the first year and slightly more after that, which is great considering that the Whois Privacy is free.

Conclusion

They only accept credit and debit cards and that is a slight drawback. The 30-day money back guarantee is OK. The limiting of how many websites you can host is another drawback. Or at least it could be if you have multiple sites.

The performance features of the DreamPress plans are nice and will help your sites load fast with features like Brotli compression, HTTP/2 and the Nginx web server. Your site will also get HTTPS by default. If you outgrow your DreamPress plan you can upgrade with a simple click of the mouse unless you are already hosted with the most powerful plan.

Dreamhost states that this plan is suitable for websites with around 10.000 monthly visitors.

This is a really nice VPS offer by the host M3Server. You can customize your own web server with just the resources you need, starting at a really affordable price. This is a great way to ensure you have lots of power while not paying for resources that you don’t use at all.

The starting configuration includes 2 vCPU cores which is great. You can also select between HDD or a smaller SSD disk for storage.

I really like that cloud backups are included also, other hosts can charge $2/mo to $25/mo for this!

FREE domain and hosting discount

Every cloud web hosting plan comes with a free .com domain name and is currently on sale for the first billing period - so choose longer billing periods to enjoy discounted web hosting for longer. You need to pay in advance for 1 year of hosting to get the listed price - even cheaper with up to 3 years of prepaid hosting, but more expensive with a monthly billing cycle. You can choose between lots of data centers located around the globe, all at the same price and with the same features.

Our coupon "whcompare7" gives an additional 7% discount!

Fast web servers

Enjoy cheap and lightning fast web hosting with SSD storage and Nginx web servers, caching and more resources than with the shared plans. These cloud plans basically gives you the power of VPS and the ease of shared at the same time. Data mirroring is included for increased uptime and security!

Plan features

The SSL certificate is the popular free Let's Encrypt SSL. The Daily Backups are local daily database backups and weekly files and folder backups. Whois privacy is $9.99/year. SiteLock Basic is $19.95/year and can help you stay clear of malicious files and malware. SiteMap Generation is $9.99 - You can find free tools for this online! Google Webmaster Account and Site Verification is $14.99 and Google Analytics Integration is $15.99 - you can find free guides and do this easily yourself for free, if you want to save some money.

Conclusion

TMDHosting gets some of our highest ratings because of their great advantages that include lots of data centers around the globe that you can choose from, and a helpful and fast live USA based support team. Their plans also offer high-speed loading of your hosted sites thanks to SSD storage. Long money back guarantees are also great.

Only 3 cloud plans to choose from is a drawback, and so is the fact that it's not possible to scale resources individually.

Fast servers and optional features

Enjoy cheap and lightning fast web hosting with SSD storage and Nginx web servers! Whois privacy is $9.99/year. SiteLock Basic is $19.95/year and can help you stay clear of malicious files and malware. SiteMap Generation is $9.99 - You can find free tools for creating sitemaps online so I would not get this! Google Webmaster Account and Site Verification is $14.99 and Google Analytics Integration is $15.99 - again, you can find free guides and do this easily and quickly for free.

Conclusion

TMDHosting gets some of our highest ratings because of their great advantages that include lots of data centers around the globe that you can choose from, and a helpful and fast live USA based support team. Their plans also offer high-speed loading of your hosted sites thanks to SSD storage. Long money back guarantees are also great.

Daily database backups and weekly file backups are included and saves some money. Expensive domain whois privacy negates most of the bonus of the free domain. However, the hosting price overall can get really cheap if you select up to 3 year payment cycles. I also really like that you can upgrade pretty seamlessly to a more powerful shared or cloud plan if you come to need more power. You would only need to pay the difference between the two plans, for your unused time, even though you might only be 1 year into a 3 year contract.

This plan has 3 GB of RAM and 3 CPU cores. It’s a decent amount of resources for medium sized sites.
