Features<\/h3>\n

All of the plans include unlimited bandwidth allowance, but keep in mind that these are introductory prices. Once your initial subscription expires, the rates will revert back to their regular prices- they have a dedicated page discussing this together with the terms and conditions, so you may want to give that a look before committing. Also, the term \u201cunlimited\u201d has a normal usage clause, meaning you can use the resources without restriction as long as it falls within their normal range.<\/p>\n

For their VPS and dedicated hosting prices, you can look into their website for more information. You can also check our own reviews to give you an idea of which providers are among the top ranks.<\/p>\n

Other Features<\/h3>\n

Aside from those mentioned above, HostMonster also provides a drag-and-drop builder website, a dozen free website scripts like PHPBB, WordPress, b2evolution, Coppermine, Drupal, and Joomla. It also carries ecommerce features with a bunch of shopping cart options, password protected directories, and OpenPGP\/GPG encryption.<\/p>\n

HostMonster’s servers are fitted with a UPS power backup, a customized Apache web server, and 24\/7 network monitoring, so you can rest easy that their dual quad processor servers running on Linux will have minimal to no performance issues.<\/p>\n

Unsatisfied? Get Your Money Back!<\/h2>\n

If you are not completely happy with what you are getting with HostMonster, you can request for a refund from their support team, as long as it is within 30 days from when you subscribed. You can still receive a partial, prorated refund amount should you choose to refund after the 30 day period. Also, all domain fees settled upon registering are not included with this offer- you will be able to transfer or direct it to another host without any costs, though. So go ahead and don’t be afraid to give HostMonster a try.<\/p>\n

Customer Service<\/h2>\n

HostMonster has a content-filled help center with articles on getting started, account setup, tutorials, and server modifications. They lack video tutorials which could have been an easier medium to learn the steps in doing the task. If you want to contact their support team, you can initiate a live chat session or give them a call- their office is open 24\/7 to assist you with your concerns.<\/p>\n

HostMonster Linux Review 2020 – Conclusion<\/h2>\n

Truth be told, HostMonster still has a lot to go before being the top Linux web hosting provider in the market. While they offer multiple apps with one-click installation and useful extras like CDN and marketing credits, they also have certain restrictions which are not present in other competitors. They also seem to have mixed reviews regarding their support. Still, if you are looking to start your website ASAP with very little resources, this web hosting provider can perform adequately, and can provide a complete set of tools that you will need to build and give your website life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
