Been using for over a year.

Review by: Jeff from Boston, on March 25th
        I recommend this host

InMotion hosts my email and two websites, I've been happy with the service and very happy with the speed.

The site went down for about 10 minutes earlier this week, I got an instant response when i asked for tech support via chat, service was restored right away.

The only "con" to inMotion is they only let me add on one extra domain.

Finally-a great web host

Review by: Bruce W from Kansas City, on March 22nd
        I recommend this host

Just moved from another webhost. Site speed is much faster, server software is current, tech support is ALWAYS there and easy to contact. Wish I hadn't wasted so many hours dealing with another host that made it really difficult to contact support. They even made it difficult to leave them! I am paying a bit more, not much, but it's well worth it! Where have you been all my life InMotion Hosting?

great tech support

Review by: megan from maine, on March 21st
        I recommend this host

I only just got my website running, so I can't rate all the bandwidth/space/server speed things. But tech support has been fantastic since the moment I ordered. They are extremely patient with my clueless questions, and have responded to my questions in just a few minutes. I've had other hosts before who were nice enough, and helpful, but I waited 24 hours to hear back, and often their answers were not clear to me. I am completely happy with InMotion.

I know absolutely nothing about technology, and every time I have called their support team this has been my opening line. They have been amazing and so patient and have always provided the support I required. Thank you a million times over...it's so great to know that my site is in safe hands!

Very satisfied 'newbie'!

Review by: DCN from Green Bay, WI, on March 7th
        I recommend this host

Very easy to use, excellent customer service when I have had questions. For the first site of our company, I used the InMotion Plesk Site Builder which has provided us with a clean, workable site for our initial site at www.sunlighthygiene.biz

I must say that I HIGHLY recommend InMotion!

InMotion is Great

Review by: Greg from Ohio, on March 2nd
        I recommend this host

I have dealt with a few hosting providers and generally have had difficulty getting support when I need it. Working a full time job and trying to build out things at night, doesn't allow me to work on someone else's schedule very easily. The service has been great and the price is very competitive. Extremely happy with my choice.

In Motion Hosting is Awesome!

Review by: Caren from California, on February 22nd
        I recommend this host

In Motion Hosting had me with their easy to build website features. Our website was up and running in less than a day with an online store and looking great! But, just ask me about their live chat and I'll give you an earful! I love it! I get so excited because I know someone is always available 24/7 to help me if I have a problem! Their friendly staff has helped me well over 20 times at all hours of the day and night! Now that's REAL customer service! The way it should be! In Motion hosting is awesome!

A host service for everyone

Review by: Artin from Thailand, on February 19th
        I recommend this host

Great technical support which is accessible at any time of the day, and willing to help as much as they can. Support of many softwares like CMS, Forum, E-commerce and lots of other cool feature all just few clicks away from your cpanel. Not happy with provided features no problem install the other softwares of your choice with ease and be sure that it works. In the end I will for sure recommend Inmotion to anyone who is looking for hosting plan at any type of use like blog, photo gallery, forum, e-commerce or all together.
