Our West Host Review:
WestHost "Personal" web hosting package is, just as the name suggests, a good starter package for someone who is looking to build a personal website. It is designed with the perfect amount of features for a personal website. There are not a lot of features that would be designed more for someone looking to do business through their website. This package is not eCommerce ready, come with shopping carts, mail list managers, or other unneccessary items.

If you grow out of your personal website you may upgrade to one of WestHost's other web hosting packages. Their greatest bargain and next step up is the "Advanced" web hosting package. But, if you are looking to build an eCommerce website where you will be selling products you are better off to go with the "Business" package. Depending on the size of your business, or type of business you intend to do over the internet, you may want to take a look at WestHost's "Semi-dedicated", "Virtual Private Server", or "Managed Dedicated Servers" packages.

WestHost also offers domain name registrations for new or transferred domains. If you are not comfortable with creating and building your own web site WestHost can assist you with their web design services.

WestHost offers community forums that can assist you in finding answers. They also have an open ticket option, live chat, and a premium U.S. based 24/7 toll free customer service. Most web hosting companies have about a 30 day guarantee on their products/services, WestHost extends their guarantee to a 60 day.
