Hostmonster Hosting Review

Hostmonster is one of the oldest web hosting company, with an excellent feedback. They own and operate their own data center with excellent infrastructure and top end servers.Both hostmonster and bluehost is owned by the same company. But hostmonster provides better features at a less price! If you are confused between the two, hostmonster probably a better choice.
