The plans on Dreamhost are divided into levels. The higher your level, the better your features are.

I had to do it in the code box because that was the only way I could get the spacings to show up correctly.

I haven't heard of Site5, but I have heard of Dreamhost. A lot of my friends use Dreamhost and they love it. Though, Dreamhost doesn't have Cpanel, but it has its own adminstration panel.

Here's the deal with Site5 and DreamHost. DreamHost offers almost 4 times the space and bandwidth for much less money - and I've been tracking DreamHost's servers for a couple of months and they are above the 99% uptime mark. Use the DreamHost promo code X50 to get $50.00 off ANY of their plans.

 

That being said, Site5 is much quicker at support if if that's really important to you I'd recommend them.

Dreamhost looks very attractive. But I wonder if their web panel is as good as Cpanel which is used by Trap seventeen and it's network. I am quite satisfied with Cpanel administration. If I want to install any blog softwares or cms also it is very easy. I don't know such things are possible with Dreamhost or not.

*Rings friends up and asks if they want to contribute to awsome webhost* joking...Xisto is the awsome webhost. Although that plan did look pretty good, im not prepared to pay for something i can get for free.
