Greengeeks off to good start
I wanted to try a new host and shopped around a lot. My budget for web hosting is limited as I'm still developing ideas and there's no revenue yet directly from web presence. The tryout price for the first year is very good. Renewals are regular price which is normal.
I wish they were able to register ".co" but otherwise good deal.
Do pay attention to the "free" domain name small print. It is reasonable, but there are some potential costs if you cancel within 30 days or don't renew hosting after 12 months. I would recommend using a domain name that you choose solely to set up the account but are willing to abandon if you (for whatever reason) do need to cancel.
The primary benefit of Greengeeks has been the customer service - the 24/7 chat is great when you can't find an answer yourself. Email option has been quick too. I had one fairly serious problem with Wordpress resource usage that they solved quickly.
Overall I'm happy enough that I'm writing a review which I never bother to do.
Down side: this was my first use of cPanel and I don't find it as intuitive as Parallels. There are just a few things that seem unintuitive about it and the directory structure it seems to need. Not impossible but a bit awkward. Also can't seem to find good info on how search spiders see this directory structure.
