Evohosting Review
Evohosting (http://www.evohosting.co.uk) is a UK host based in Maidenhead. Evohosting have been offering web hosting since 2004. When looking at whether they are a good host for wordpress they tick all the boxes. Their control panel includes Installatron which makes installing the latest version of wordpress a doddle. It takes just a few minutes and once you have done it a few times you will be able to install wordpress in more like 30 seconds.
The Starter Plan is a great place to get started with hosting wordpress since if you are unsure how much bandwidth and webspace you will need why pay more now… You can upgrade at anytime. If you want more than one domain though look at their “Home” package which allows you to host ten domains. By paying annually instead of monthly you’ll save money and if you sign up for a biannual deal you’ll get money off as well as other bonuses.
They also have a useful blog which is well worth a mention and includes wordpress tutorials.
I have used Evohosting for my Wordpress sites for about 9 months and can’t fault them. They gave me a free domain and I installed Wordpress using their auto-installer, I have asked their support lots of questions in my time as there is a serious learning curve when building a site – they have always been fast and courteous and given me all the info I needed.
they have a special offer of double space and unlimited databases and one click apps if you choose to pay for 2 years (starts from £45)
I’ve been happily using Evohosting for nearly as long as they’ve been in business!
I’ve always been very happy with their level of service and they are great value in comparison to other hosts I’ve used previously.
On the very rare occaision I’ve had to contact support (with issues which were my mistake anyway! sorry guys!) they’ve always been prompt, courteous and seemed genuinely happy to help.
I’d definately have no hesitation recommending them to other people, as I’ve already done a number of times.
Definitely a five star host. I signed up and they helped me move a site that I had bought, well they did it all to be honest. Great price for the service.
I started my blog as a bit of fun becasue I lost my job on the 16th of November but since then I have learnt that there is money to be made online. I am planning on setting up another site using wordpress and I am researching viable hosts preferably one that offers a free domain name. I want the best value for money hosting service as I currently have no money.
Many thanks.
I have three websites – one my own, another a community website and the third, above, my work.
All three on the 2-year home hosting deal, that offers double disk space and unlimited bandwidth as well as no. of email accounts.
I am no expert, just a dedicated amateur and, although there is no ‘phone support – well, a these prices you can’t expect dedicated, 24 hour support at the end of a ‘phone! – but I found the email support at Evo very good indeed, you submit a ticket and yep! someone comes back to you pretty quickly.
When I had a problem the front line staff couldn’t fathom, the MD himself came to the rescue and did his level best. Not many companies offer that personal touch, so..
Thanks folks at Evo for all you great work!
Excellent support, I transferred my domain from another hosting and they kept me updated everyday. I was given all the details right from the start and all my support questions were answered pretty much within 24 hours during weekdays. I’m not a big fan of cpanel but I can live with it, there’s SSH access if you fancy. Wordpress is one click install which is brilliant.
Would highly recommend this for anyone wanting to host simple websites like wordpress.
I think all the above reviews are written by the evohosting.co.uk staff. They DO NOT reply support tickets for several days. I’m tired from this hosting! Also they charge 20% VAT on top of the price regardless of your country.
