A beginner-friendly webhost **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sharat B. | Web Designer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 25, 2022 **What do you like best about HostBee?** This New Zealand-based WebHost began in 2014. Relatively new and unheard of to the web hosting game, Host Bee is budget & beginner friendly and easy to manage. They offer 24/7 web support, a once-normal but now rare to see in budget hosting. A 99.999% uptime claim is good to see but standard on most hosts. They offer RAID setup on their servers and free backup. A standard 30-days money-back guarantee and free website migration are part of the deal. Top that with unlimited bandwidth and 24/7 server maintenance, and you can start seeing why Host Bee looks pretty attractive to newbies. It's also nice that so far, they are not bought by a corporation, which seems to be happening a lot. **What do you dislike about HostBee?** Host Bee has some fantastic features, but it's not something extraordinary. And in this competitve hosting market, you need to give more value for a competitive price, not standard value for standard price, which is what Host Bee seems to be doing. There cheapest packange, Shared Hosting, starts at $9.99/month as a promotion. Renews at $11.99/month. This is quite expensive compared to other more known providers. In all fairness, they do provide 32GB of DDR3 RAM, which may justify the cost, but for shared hosting, it seems like overkill. **Recommendations to others considering HostBee:** If you want a simple, beginner-friendly web host with a lot of computing power and online support with cPanel at the backend, consider giving Host Bee a try. **What problems is HostBee solving and how is that benefiting you?** I wanted a simple easy to set up web host, and Host Bee seems to check all the boxes. It's easy to start a site with their site builder and over 150 apps that you can install through Softaculous. ### 2. Easy and cheap hosting service **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Manjil R. | System Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 26, 2022 **What do you like best about HostBee?** It offers 30 days money back guarantee, which is a best thing to have. **What do you dislike about HostBee?** Online chat is not available which is a great feature to contact support when needed. **Recommendations to others considering HostBee:** Main thing about hosting website is it needs to be online 24/7 and if there is an issue and website is down, immediate support is needed. Hostbee may have good support which will help eliminate this isssue. **What problems is HostBee solving and how is that benefiting you?** Web and Domain Hosting for business. Have lot of issues with other hosting providers and when there is an issue, it is tough to contact them, and hopefully, this will minimize it. ### 3.
