Hi, and welcome to The Php Pro.

My name is Tim Gallagher, and I want to explain my reasons for promoting bluehost.com on my web site.

This is not just another blind affiliate relationship where I'm looking to make money when you sign up. I researched this company, and recommended them to my church before putting this on my web site.

In the interest of full-disclosure I get paid a commission for each person who signs up, however, my commission doesn't affect the price you pay at all. Think of it as an alternate form of advertising for bluehost.com, except they only pay for this advertising if they gain a customer. Not a bad deal for them is it? Which is why they are willing and able to pay people like me to promote their service.

Now, I wouldn't try to sell you on their service if I didn't believe in it myself. Like I already mentioned, I have recommended them to my church for our web site that I will be programming - we plan on putting mp3's of messages and conferences online, and we needed a provider that had both large storage and transfer quotas.

Another issue was, for obvious reasons, we didn't like the idea of our web site being on the same web server as a pornographic web site.

Well, not only did I find a company who doesn't allow porn, I also found a company that is willing to be honest with its customers. Both links are to bluehost.com CEO Matt Heaton's blog.

You get:

  1. Unlimited storage space for your web site.
  2. Unlimited File Transfer.
  3. They are honest
  4. They don't allow porn on their servers.
  5. You can host up to sixUNLIMITED web sites on one account for the same money.

Convinced? You can sign up now
