Hello again!

This time I want to show you another really good cheap shared hosting provider. That’s Stablehost. Maybe it’s not as popular as other providers (who have all kind of creature types in their names lol), but it’s as good as others in comparison of bandwidth, disk space limits and support.

Personal Experience

As usual, I try not to go over 30-40 domain limit per shared hosting account. After I reach and go over that limit, hosting companies tend to see me as a huge customer which needs dedicated server or at least VPS, in their opinion. Of course, that’s only because they see that I have lot’s of sites, but what they don’t consider is the traffic I’m getting to my blogs, which is only around 100 uniques per site. So if you take 30 blogs, you get 3000 uniques per day.. Which isn’t a lot, and shared account is more than enough!

With stablehost I currently have 36 domains. I didn’t go over their cpu limits, there was no problems for around two years already!

You can see that I’m using a little less than half of my resources. I could probably add more domains if I wanted to, but I’ll just keep it this way. No need to go over the limit, also linking between sites doesn’t work that well if you have everything hosted on the same C class IP. But that’s a SEO lesson, let’s not go into this..

Bandwidth/Disk Space

I have their “Stable” plan with 100gb/month (they have increased their BW limits since then, so now you could get 150gb bandwidth limit for the same price I’m paying. Doh!). My blogs don’t use huge amounts of traffic, so I’m alright with such a limit. Of course, I was almost reaching the upper line before google’s penguin.. (Figure 2) But now I’m back to the point where I’ve started. Oh well.

For the disk space, they gave me 5gb. I don’t know why you would need more, unless you’re hosting full videos or try to compete with youtube. But for that purpose I guess you would have to look for something better than cheap shared hosting, lol.

UPTIME / Other comments

My current tracking software reports that in 3 last months StableHost was down only 0.08% of the time (Figure 3). That sounds pretty awesome for a shared account, huh? I didn’t really have any issues with the downtime of this company. Probably that’s why it’s called StableHost!

Figure 3: StableHost uptime – down for 103 minutes in last 3 months.

I’m not sure if those 100 minutes were scheduled downtime or not, I don’t really remember. What I remember though is every time when I need to reach my hosting and my blogs, it’s up. So I’m really happy with it (considering the price I’m paying, I’m more than happy!)

Support

There’s not much to write about support. They are always online, and always ready to help you. Just look at the ticket answer time (Figure 4), and you’ll know what I mean.

Price / Coupons

This is the part where we open our eyes really wide. They have great plans and prices not biting at all!

Figure 5: Stablehost prices (without coupons)

So, if you get a yearly “Stable plan”, you would pay 68.42 anually. You would pay that if you were a regular customer. But you are not, right? You know that stablehost coupon could bring down that price by half, and that’s why you are here, haha! So let’s see what do we get after we apply some nice discount codes.

StableHost coupons:

USYEARLY – recurring discount of 50% (lifetime!!!, works even when you upgrade/downgrade your plan, simply tell support to keep the discount). Your annual payment for stable plan would be:

There’s not much else to say about this great hosting, get it now!
