Hostmonster.com is one of well known hosting companies for shared web hosting. Hostmonster Web hosting is considered good hosting provider for small website. I will rank Hostmonster at number 2 for website hosting asHostgator hosting and support is much better than hostmonster. You can read a Hostgator review which i wrote in my previous post. When i started making blogs and website, i tried all these shared hosting companies like Hostgator and Hostmonster. I started trying these hosting companies in 2008 and still with them so I have equal experience in all hosting companies.
