This is a web host with a very rare 100% uptime money-back guarantee with a free two-week trial. If you’re not happy in your first 97 days, you get your money back, no questions asked.
With one-year and two-year contracts to choose from, you’re looking at either a shared hosting plan, VPS, or dedicated hosting plan. The two-year plan doesn’t really offer enough of a discount to make the commitment worth it.
Security is paramount to DreamHost, and they offer 50 GB of automatic backups. They also include improved security through passwords on directories and other forms of boosted website security.

Features

You don’t just get all the unlimited basics that many web hosts offer – like domains, bandwidth, disk space, email accounts, and MySQL 5 databases – but you get advanced features, too. You also get free domain registration, support for multiple coding languages (PHP5, Perl, Python, etc), website traffic statistics, and a variety of plugins, platforms and other solutions. DreamHost also starts you off with a $100 Google AdWords credit when you launch the included promotional campaign starter..

Support

DreamHost has a wealth of functions, but that’s tempered by the somewhat limited technical support. Their tutorials, wiki, and user forums are wonderful, and kudos to them for their dedication to social media, but you can’t connect via live chat or an outgoing phone call. They promise to respond to support emails within 24 hours, which isn’t the best. Even then, the quality of your support technicians is inconsistent.

Pricing

	Price Range
Shared Hosting	$7.95	See Plans
VPS Hosting	$15.00 - $120.00	See Plans
Dedicated Server	$149.00 - $279.00	See Plans

Easy Setup

Users used to cPanel will notice (or miss) its absence. DreamHost has created their own control panel, which is easy to use; you just need to take a moment to get used to it.
If you had a cPanel account before, you don’t have to start entirely from scratch; you can actually import your information (including all settings), with an “importer” feature.

PROS

Familiar cPanel
100% uptime guarantee
2-week trial, 97-day money back guarantee
Unlimited basic features (domains, emails, bandwidth, MySQL databases, etc.)
Ability to grow with your company
