Wow. June was a mess. midPhase and Lunarpages climbed up four spaces each. HostGator tanked number nine, possibly for not yet embracing the unmetered model like almost half of our top ten have. On the other hand, DreamHost is another holdout against that model and rocketed to number two.

Summer is always a little weird in hosting land, probably because normal people would rather be outside enjoying the weather than building web sites. Yes, I said it. We are not normal! Good for us!

Good luck and happy hosting.

About HostScope

HostScope is a new site that combines several of my web sites, both existing and planned, into a single place. Its focus is web design, development, technology, and general webmastery. As a result, it needs to cover everything from picking a web host to configuring a blog to monetizing your site. Whether I can live up to the challenge of this broad a mission remains to be seen, but it should be an interesting ride regardless. More info...
