Jeremy's Notes

Over the years I have used a few different services and companies to host my web sites, but recently I have come along one that I think I will stick with for a very long time. This company is called Dreamhost.com.

This company is probably the best one I have every dealt with. I’ll start off by saying they have one of the best pricing ever. Using the coupon code JMAC50OFF will reduce the price of one year of their hosting service by $50 and also includes a FREE one year domain registration for any .com, .net, or .org domain.

They have the best hosting control panel that I have ever used, and theirs is actually custom compared to most hosting services that just use the crappy old cPanel + Fantastico Script installer. The Dreamhost panel is #1 in my book because it centralizes everything that a webmaster would every need into one great control panel. Here’s a complete list of everything it has in it:

• Home Control Panel
• Billing Control Panel
• Private Servers Control Panel
• Domains Control Panel lists the domain names you are hosting with DreamHost, and lets you add, remove, and manage hosting support for domain names.
• Users Control Panel lists the user IDs you are hosting with DreamHost, and lets you add and remove user IDs, and manage their capabilities.
• Mail Control Panel
• Goodies Control Panel lets you install various third-party software on your web sites.
• Status Control Panel
• Files Forever Panel
• Support Control Panel

Check them out and if you’re truely interested in their services, please use my coupon code – JMAC50OFF
