Webhost Recommendation #1: Netfirms

We've used Netfirms longer than any other hosting service.

Initially we chose this web host for ourselves due to the price, proven history, large subscriber base, useful addons of a website builder, ad credits, and good support.
While those things are all true, we have found that the overall reliability of the hosting, along with the clean easy to navigate interface make it a pleasure to use on every level.

The Netfirms Plus plan is good for one website, but for less than twice the price,
the Netfirms Advantage Plan allows for unlimited sites.
Very few people need to move beyond the Advantage Plan. If so, there is Netfirms Buisness Hosting as well as VPS Hosting. Click Here to Review All Netfirms Hosting Plans.

Webhost Recommendation #2: HostGator

HostGator is One of the most popular hosts in the world.

And we know why. Not only do they have pervasive, effective marketing (who doesn't like a blue alligator?) but they back up that marketing with strong pricing and wide features. We ended up adding HostGator as a second webhosting service for technical reasons, and we currently use both Netfirms and Hostgator web site hosting.

Which One Should YOU Use?

Here's the lowdown:

• The Netfirms interface is cleaner and easier to use.
• Hostgator Hosting costs a bit less than Netfirms
• Domain names through Netfirms cost less
• Netfirms offers .ca domains and free privacy
• Netfirms limits the number of Wordpress sites
  in its Advantage account to 10

Our Suggestion:
If you are new to websites or are moving an existing site to a new host,
and need 10 or less Wordpress websites, go with Netfirms
If you have experience with web hosts and websites and know you will want
more than 10 Wordpress based sites, go with Hostgator.
If you want to purchase and hold all your domains and your hosting in one place,
and you will have multiple domains, go with Netfirms.
