Dreamhost could probably be the most popular web hosting company out there right now, with their aggressive marketing campaigns via coupon codes, their unlimited webspace and bandwidth, up-to-date server and program software and hardware, and a whole lot more features they have in the table. Add to that their cheap price.
I availed of their geocities promo lately, and got two years free domain and hosting for free.
But here’s the big turn-off. Just lately a notice was posted here saying:
