It’s late so I’m just going to get to point of this post. Ignore my mention of dreamhost being decent in my first post. I’ve been using wordpress less than 2 weeks and have paid for webhosting for the first time for only a month or so and have already switched. I’m now a hostgator.com fan. So, just so you know if you’re looking for a host, don’t go with dreamhost.com, check out hostgator.com.

The reason I made this switch was speed. This site was taken upwards of 15 seconds to load on dreamhost and dreamhost was flaky even in the short time I used this. This new host has much higher review ratings on review sites and my personal experience so far is that the speed is WAY better. Their panel sucks in comparison but you really only need the panel to make very rare changes. Sooo, yeah, hostgator. woohoo
