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.

Price
For the Essential, Advanced and Elite dedicated servers by InMotion, you’ll get an initial period discount on your order, so the longer your billing cycle is the more you save.
The price for hardware upgrades also depends on your billing cycle.
Hardware configuration
Choose between lots of different RAM and storage configurations.
Included features
The 3 cheaper dedicated servers have a double RAM promo at the time of writing this which includes 4, 8 or 16 GB extra RAM.
I am not sure how long this promo will last.
These 3 servers also have 2 hours of included managed time, so you can’t have too many requests without having to pay extra for the support you receive.
I think 2 hours should be more than enough for most people and businesses though.
1-on-1 sysadmin time is included for every dedicated server and
Expensive domains & privacy
When purchasing your server you will get the option to buy a domain name with whois privacy. It says on their website that they include a free domain with all three of their VPS offers with a billing cycle of 6 or 12 months.
At the moment they charge $12.99/year for the domain privacy. This is useful as it will help you receive less spam by having your personal information hidden. You can get this for free with another registrar though, negating the benefit of the free domain offered by this web host.
Data center location
The Advanced and Elite dedicated servers have the choice of data center feature, and you can select to host in Washington DC or in Los Angeles.
Both data centers are located very close to the IXP in those areas for great ping.
Not for porn or gambling sites
InMotion Hosting has, like many other web hosts, restrictions again hosting adult content like porn.
In addition, InMotion does not allow gambling websites either.

Server options
You can choose between Linux or Windows OS. The prices are the same. cPanel and WHM is included when choosing the managed Linux option and Plesk and WebMatrix with the managed Windows option. You can choose between having your server semi-managed or managed. If you select semi-managed you won't get cPanel or Plesk but you will save about $10/mo. I would not suggest going for this unless you know what you're doing. The prices we show are for the managed option.
Expensive domain names
If you need a new domain name I would suggest using one of the top registrars and save about 50% off the cost compared to what this web hosting company charges. HostGator is charging $14.95 per year for whois privacy for your domain name, which in contrast, is totally free with some of the best domain registrars.
Data center & support
The HostGator servers are located in Houston, Texas, USA. Live tech support available 24/7.

The Standard dedicated servers
The Standard dedicated servers by DreamHost and come in three sizes. Choose between 4, 8, and 16 GB RAM.
The rest of the hardware and features are the same amongst all these three options.
The CPUs are Intel Xeon with 4 cores and 8 threads. Storage is only HDD disks which are slower than SSD – and that is a drawback.
All the DreamHost plans come with their custom control panel and it is apparently not possible to change to cPanel or something else.
Pretty high prices
Price-wise these dedicated servers do not offer the best value compared with similar servers by other hosts.
I would hope that they could offer lower prices when taken into consideration that they do not offer 24/7 live chat support, SSD disks, or expensive control panels like cPanel or Plesk.
