Chose FatCow
I previously used GoDaddy, and I was very unimpressed with their various pricing tiers. I wanted something with a simpler pricing model. GoDaddy was particularly annoying when luring you in with low prices but bombarding you with add-ons during the checkout process. To be fair, …

Chose FatCow
Before choosing FatCow, I looked into a few services. As this was 9 years ago, the options weren't as diverse as they are now. GoDaddy was the most popular at the time, but the rates were significantly higher for a smaller package, and they had a pretty sexist ad campaign at …

FatCow is excellent if you are looking for a web hosting service with an unlimited amount of space for all your website needs. Their servers are environmentally friendly so if you are conscious about that type of thing, they are a better choice than some others. The yearly fees are really reasonable, especially compared to other services. I wish they had a bit more tech support but that's really my only complaint.

Around 1 year ago my website was under attack of dos, then Hostinger support told me to use Cloudflare to prevent the website from dos attack, generally, I see no hosting provide Cloudflare integration on their dashboard but Hostinger has option to use Cloudflare and I did the same after that my website saves. All thanks to Hostinger team.

Cons
  • I was very disappointed with my initial renewal. I understood that the price I had paid was an introductory price, but the renewal rate was much higher than I anticipated. They could be more transparent with their renewals.

  • They need to fix file manager session, after 15-30 mins session expired automatically and it result in loss of data. This is very critical issue.
  • They need to provide notice at least 2 days before when they schedule maintainance

I previously used GoDaddy, and I was very unimpressed with their various pricing tiers. I wanted something with a simpler pricing model. GoDaddy was particularly annoying when luring you in with low prices but bombarding you with add-ons during the checkout process. To be fair, I haven't used GoDaddy in several years, so I do not know if this is still a business practice. But, it was enough to turn me off, and the simplicity of FatCow has kept me as a customer ever since.
