I need a new web host. I only use it for a family picture album, but my current host is ungodly slow. It takes anywhere from 10-30 seconds to actually get to the site, and then 10-15 seconds to bring up a picture… I’ve read good things about HostGator, but I wanted to see who others are using… ---

Hostmonster is was great until I started getting large volumes of traffic onto the site. It’s downside that it’s very very limited at what it gives to customers because as expected most websites won’t become huge. ---

Forgot to mention that it needs to use cPanel, so I can transfer the existing albums and 500+ pictures without losing anything… ---

I’ve been using Hostmonster for my website and it’s fine for me. I don’t get many hits though. I use it more for it’s FTP and email. ---
