A web hosting feature matrix I used while looking for a new cheap and reliable hosting server. Not shown in any particular order. The broad requirements were shared hosting with around 10GB of storage and at least allowing 10 domains, but preferably unlimited domain hosting (the only thing I want specified as unlimited, unlimited storage and bandwidth is generally a deceitful company).
Note: $4.95Y meants $4.95 a month if paid yearly, $2.95Yx3 would mean $2.95 a month paid triannually.
