About DreamHost
DreamHost has been around since 1996 and does things its own way: month-to-month billing without a punishing surcharge, a 97-day money-back guarantee on shared hosting, and renewal prices that stay reasonable instead of tripling. WordPress.org officially recommends it. The control panel is custom rather than cPanel, which takes a moment to get used to. For people who hate pricing games, this is the pick.
“Monthly billing without punishment, a 97-day money-back guarantee, and renewal prices that do not triple. The most honest pricing among the big American hosts.”Editorial team, via HostingShortlist
