Overall Satisfaction with FatCow
I use FatCow to host my portfolio website and domain names. It addressed the problem of finding a good web-hosting service that fit my needs. I wanted to use a service that cares about the customer and has a lot of options. I am able to use FatCow with WordPress or any other web design service, or hard-code it on my own. The page manager is very flexible and the rates are reasonable.
- Flexibility of how you want to use it (WordPress, HTML coding, Wix, etc)
- Unlimited storage for all your website needs
- Reasonable rates as compared to other hosting services
- The dashboard design could be improved design-wise as it can get a bit confusing if you get lost navigating
- I wish security/more support was included in the price I pay for hosting rather than an added fee
- I don't use FatCow for profit, just a place to display my work. It's a personal investment in myself that I can't really track.
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 the time that really turned me off of their services. Since choosing FatCow, I have looked into using WP Engine as I do my website in WordPress, but it wasn't worth it to move it over at the time and I elected to stick with what I had.
