User experience
Our Web Hosting Pad test site showed good response and uptimes.
...
WebHostingPad is a standard cPanel 11 host. There is a little bit of wasted white space in the panel skin, but that is definitely not any major issue.
Only a single concurrent FTP connection is possible. This is annoying if you want to update your site often with large amounts of files. You will not be able to parallelize uploads.
Customer satisfaction
WebHostingPad is a fairly recent hosting company growing very fast due to word of mouth by their satisfied customers.
Technical specs
WebHostingPad custom build their own servers. Each web server is a dual Xeon server with 8GB of system RAM. Furthermore, the shared web hosting service is delivered from a load-balanced cluster of servers and files are served from a Netapp network attached storage device. This ensures high availability and consistent performance for all user accounts.
- MySQL 5.0.45 - Up to date
- PHP 5.2.45 - Up to date
- UTF-8 and mbstring: supported
Overall, the platform is state of the art.

This is definitely the best in budget web host arena.
good price, good offer!
Just got hosting with them a few weeks ago and got great support for my website.
I have a new b2 blog and chose webhostingpad based in part by the good reviews. I have been up and running for about a month now and it serves 2 different web sites. I used their support often during the first week and their response as always been fast (a few hours even) and correct. I would also say that any of the problems I had could have been caused by my lack of experience. I have not had any trouble since and am very happy with their services. I highly recommend webhostingpad.
Webhostingpad features are excellent and they have great technical support 365/24/7
Amazing support from these folks. I dont have to call much but this is the only web host I like to call. They always get you straight fast and the people a friendly. That for me is THE big deal to.
Thanks for the review, I was considering going with WebHostingPad, now I know for certain that i'm going with them!
i have recommend this hosting for my friend who needs a webhost for his internet cafe business 
sounds good and I am going with them soon !
I've got four active blogs on their server and have had for nearly a year now, with zero problems. Once in a blue moon the server will be down for a few minutes, but by and large, they have been extremely dependable, and the load time for my pages is excellent, a couple of seconds at most. Their tech support was good when I was getting set up, and I haven't had to call them since. I'm getting ready to renew for another year. I really don't know how they could be much better, although I can't speak for high traffic sites, as mine are relatively low traffic. I have no hesitation recommending them, though.
New cleint since 4 months!Best ever! Best support and tools+ no down times so far. I strongly suggest everyone to all.
I'm looking for a new hosting for my site y this is just that I'm looking for. Great work !!!
The site offers good service, Im also thinking of trying it.
i LOVE these guys. everytime i have a question, i do a live chat and they fix it in seconds. the problem is 99% on my end, not on their's. i have definitely found a new home with them.
This is an awesome deal for the money. The set up on my blog using wordpress was extremely simple.
I have been using them about 20days so far.
I'm from Spain and I use WebHostingPad for all my sites.
I was having an issue with my little brother's domain (hosted by another company) pointing to my hosting space (hosted by WBP). This issue has been going on for 2 weeks and I kept going back and forth with both companies until your rep Chris totally fixed the issue and his domain worked. If he hadn't, my brother was going to go with another company for hosting and spend money he can't afford to spend at this time. Thank you so much for your service! He and I both really appreciate it.
