Been using GoDaddy since 2009, had Earthlink prior but the monthly cost was silly so I'd switched. These days not really happy with them. They removed their webstats and the speed is quite slow. I can't seem to get over 500 kilobytes per second download testing in two different states over gigabit connections that pull down over 450mbps (ie. 5.6 megabytes per second). Apparently it's cause I'm on one of their older classic hosting services.
Anyhow, I've looked at many web hosts that are half of what I'm paying per month (currently $8.99 a month) but have been interested in sites geared towards musicians and bands - ie. mostly dynamic content that is easy to just simply upload or update and have it on one's page, such as adding new photo's or news. Up till now I've been modifying each page's html which can be a real pita at times.
I've seen Hostbaby which looks awesome for such a thing and also automatically is supposed to convert for mobile friendly viewing. I also have an album through CDBaby and CD's being pressed through Oasis so there's a short term free usage thing, but their monthly charge is a freaking whopping $20!!! Sorry, but that price is just nuts when I can do it myself for around $4 a month. They do offer a year upfront payment for a lesser price, but it's still like $16.50 a month.
Can anyone recommend a good musician friendly host at a reasonable price ($10 or under a month) that offers some pretty cool features for us musicians? Mostly concerned with fast load/quick download speeds and ability to easily upload content and have it added to the site without having to edit a bunch of HMTL. Thanks in advance!
