I admit it, I’m a SiteGround fanboy. But as my traffic grew, I started getting CPU overages on SiteGround’s GoGeek plan. I upgraded to their $80/month cloud hosting but was still exceeding CPU, so I added more CPU/RAM and started paying them $180/month. Going from $11.95/month on GoGeek to $180/month was insane to me, to […]
SiteGround vs GoDaddy – A Brutally Honest WordPress Hosting Review (Don’t Touch GoDaddy With A 10-Foot Poll)
Are you really deciding between SiteGround vs. GoDaddy? This is honestly the easiest comparison I have ever written. GoDaddy is absolute garbage and you should avoid them at all costs. When comparing them to SiteGround, it’s like night and day. Here’s why: GoDaddy packs too many people on their servers (making them slow) which is […]
SiteGround Cloud Hosting Review – I’ve Been Using It Since March, 2016 And While It’s $80/Month, I’m Also Very Happy
I’ve been on SiteGround’s cloud hosting since March 2016. I upgraded from their semi-dedicated GoGeek plan which is sufficient for many mid-high traffic sites, but I wanted mine to load even faster. After all, WordPress speed is my thang. There were a couple immediate differences when I upgraded to cloud… My site loaded about .4s faster […]
SiteGround WordPress Hosting Review: #1 In 34 Facebook Polls And Still Favored In 2019, But Renewal Prices Are High
As a super affiliate of SiteGround, I’ve referred thousands of people to them. But it’s also my responsibility to warn people about the cons (renewal prices and CPU overages) and try to keep my reviews as unbiased as possible. That’s why you’ll see things like Facebook polls, Tweets, and Reddit answers in this SiteGround’s WordPress […]
SiteGround Affiliate Program Review – How I Made $80,000 In 2017… Which Changed My Life (Income Reports Included)
So this happened… In 2017 I made $80,000 through SiteGround’s affiliate program. I’ve never made this kind of money… I was able to move to Denver, buy a new car, I’m living in a nice apartment downtown with my 2 new shelter cats, and I donated $3,000 to Hurricane Harvey. I’ve been broke all my life, […]
SiteGround GoGeek Review – Semi-Dedicated Hosting Is About 4x Faster Than StartUp With Tons Of Extra Features
I migrated my website to SiteGround’s GoGeek hosting in February of 2015. I started on Bluehost then eventually upgraded to GoGeek which is semi-dedicated hosting and roughly 4x faster than StartUp. That is the biggest difference between GoGeek and their other shared hosting plans – the amount of server resources you get which is the main factor when […]
SiteGround GrowBig Review – Faster Than StartUp And Includes Staging, Advanced Caching, Unlimited Hosted Sites
Deciding between SiteGroud StartUp vs. GrowBig vs. GoGeek? SiteGround’s GrowBig plan is perfect for hosting multiple websites, one-click staging, and getting more server resources (the main speed factor in web hosting) compared to StartUp. It actually has the best value considering you get all this for just $2 more per month. Not to mention you get an extra 10GB of storage, […]
SiteGround StartUp Review – #1 Rated Web Hosting (But Lacks Many Features That Come With GrowBig + GoGeek)
SiteGround’s StartUp plan is only good for hosting 1 single low-traffic website. If you get decent traffic or are running any high CPU plugins, StartUp probably won’t have enough server resources and you could end up getting CPU overages. But if it’s a small site using lightweight plugins, and you don’t need the features that […]
How To Fix Slow WordPress Hosting On Bluehost (Using GTmetrix, Caching, Cloudflare, Image Optimization, More)

WordPress site running slow on HostGator? HostGator was rated the 23th host in this Facebook poll (and #44th in last year’s poll) and is known for being 1 thing – cheap.
