iPowerWeb was a relative disappointment for me. Although the prices were competitive, the service was not as good as I would've hoped. The control panel was highly disorganized, and the domain credit system was fairly confusing. PhpMyAdmin operated at an unworkably slow pace; it would take 2 minutes to just run a SELECT query in a table with 3 rows. The initial setup was really annoying, I had to go out of my way just to enable PHP and MySQL. The most annoying part about iPower was its irritating persistence to try to get me to renew my hosting; they spammed my cell phone, calling me when I was in class or about to go to bed. There are better hosts out there, don't be fooled by this rating.

I've just started hosting with iPowerWeb and although I have nothing to compare it to it seems pretty good so far. I got my hosting and domain on sale for $4.95 a month. My only complaint so far is that the version of Wordpress it installed was out of date.
