In 2005 and 2007, American company Arvixe.com was recognized as one of the top 10 most rapidly growing hosting companies in the world, according to authoritative publications such as HostReview and Inc Magazine. Now, Arvixe.com serves 120,000 hosting accounts and 170,000 domains around the world.
Plans
Note! Some companies do not include VAT in their prices. Prices are indicated for one month’s pay. If you pay for a longer period - discounts are possible. Domain prices are indicated for new domains registration.
Arvixe is another hosting company I have been with for nearly two decades. While the quality of their support has dwindled considerably over the years, their up-time and adoption of new technologies can't be beat at their price point. I've used network/website monitoring on all my servers & websites for about a decade. Year after year, Arvixe is the only company I've worked with that lives up to its SLA. I've enjoyed more than 99% uptime for five years.
After I was duped by bluehost.com, I hosted my websites on Arvixe.com. Being a Drupal Association member, I was awarded with 30% flat discount with coupon code Drupal30 years over years! During my collaboration with them, I never felt let down! Arvixe.com is one of the best shared hosting providers till date!! If you need to decide about your shared hosting, Arvixe.com is the only choice!

This provider offers a budget-friendly hosting option that's easy to set up, making it a great choice for beginners seeking affordability. While its offerings are somewhat limited in terms of accessibility, space, and bandwidth, it remains a viable option for those prioritizing cost and simplicity.

Arvixe used to be great, until EIG purchased them. When requesting support, I was left going around in loops whilst trying to get my question across to the agent. Their control panel is okay, because they use cPanel, however that is about it - servers seem to be overloaded and even their own website is slow to load. As for pricing, it's cheap and there's a reason why.

I am writing this review to help those who have not already made their decision, so maybe they will not make the same mistake as I made. Arvixe were suggested to me by a college, I purchased a relatively good service plan (VPS) and my problems started from the very first week. The site suddenly stops working, the hosting server crashes, and if you do nothing about it, it stays the same and your website is gone for god know how long. When you call the support team (which you probably have to do every day), they answer the phone after a long time (not less than 30 minutes waiting time on the phone) and they listens to what you say, then they kindly say something similar to: I will submit or update your ticket so the monitoring team look into it, and I do not feel the phone support is more than a ticket generator. And then, the monitoring team looks into it (after a day), and your website is still dead. Next day or so, it happens again.

Luckily, I canceled their services before I was about to purchase hosting. I was testing them firstly only for domains, where the initial problem occurred. I purchased domain and that was not shown into their system, but they regularly charged for it. And then on the scene came their support. I can not tell, unfortunately, anything good for their support. Initially, until they figure out what is the problem that I am complaining about, and of course not able to help anyhow nor to refund money. Tons of chat history to explain simply that I bought a domain name and that they charged for it, but showing as not purchased, simply does not work.
I canceled everything with them and glad that I was not purchased hosting package as I was wanted.
No doubt that Arvixe is one of the fastest web hosting available now, but, they have a killing problem, their prices are too high for services like that. That's why I really can't recommend it. Also, their tech support is not that much responsive and you might wait for a long time to be with an agent.

Arvixe used to be great...
It was a privately-owned company with a personal approach towards clients.
We tried them again after the EIG acquisition and there was nothing left from the reliable host that was praised in every hosting forum out there.
Now, Arvixe uses the same crammed servers with hundreds of customers on it and that takes a toll on everything. The sites are running rather slow and we were hitting memory limits constantly. The support is of no help, answering basic questions only.
Pity the tables have turned so much...

First of all, their website seems so cluttered and makes it difficult to actually find what one is looking for. As if that’s not enough, you have to pay for 2 years upfront at a price of $7.70 which feels like you’re being made to stick with them for 2 years. Another issue I take with them is that they charge for the SSL certificate, something which other providers provide for free. I find this quite expensive. Their page load speeds leave a lot to be desired and their support is quite slow. Overall, Arvixe is generally a less-than-average provider and needlessly pricy.
Arvixe is another victim of the EIG conglomerate tragedy. They used to be one of the best shared hosting providers you could find. Then EIG (Endurance International Group) came in and, like they always do, destroyed a great hosting platform.
First of all, a common refrain from the customer support at Arvixes is " We do not offer support for that". I am starting to think it is the company line. Some of my client who use this company prefer that I act as the go-between when they need support because as one client put it: "If I have to deal with them I might just shut my business down instead"
Reliability is as bad as their support. The one site I currently have on this platform experiences frequent downtimes. I have determined that this is due to the dreaded noisy neghbor syndrome that plagues many shared hosts.
If you are running a business, avoid this host. If you are running a personal site that does not have to be reliable or fast and you just want cheap hosting....still avoid this host.

If your site did not reach the level of popularity at which it begins to generate revenues significantly exceeding a few dollars a month (required to pay for hosting) and You do not need a few tens of GB of disk space, but 1 GB is enough, then here You can get a free account from arvixe hosting with all its other advantages: high-quality equipment, reliable staff, extensive experience and direct interaction with key partners in the web industry, debugged software on servers, the most convenient hosting control panel - cPanel, unlimited domains, MySQL and PostgreSQL databases, PHP 5, Perl, Python, Ruby on Rails, ImageMagick, NetPBM, GD, Zend Optimizer, everything you need for flash video and much more.
You do not need to pay any fee - you can use your account as long as you want, spending 15-20 minutes a month to publish a couple of reviews about your hosting experience.

We highly recommend not to purchase the cheapest hosting package. Usually, they come with a row of issues: the server is often down, the hardware is outdated, lousy and slow support, registration and payment errors, etc.
For your convenience, we have created a tool that can help you to choose the right hosting package for you just by answering a few simple questions.
CMS is a content management system. A lot of hosting providers offer so-called CMS optimized packages. However, this is a marketing trick because most CMSs do not have special software or hosting requirements.
Bulletproof hosting - it’s a type of service that allows to host almost any type of content, even the restricted one (adult content, warez, spam etc). Bulletproof hosting providers do not remove your content in case someone reports an abuse.
Unlimited hosting - refers to companies that provide packages with unlimited disk space, bandwidth, number of domains, databases or email accounts, etc. This is usually a marketing trick but sometimes you can find something worth a try.
Secure hosting - it’s a type of service when the hosting provider is mostly responsible for the security of the user’s account: updates the software installed on their servers, provides an antivirus and malware scanner, firewalls and basic anti-DDoS protection, etc.
DDoS-protected hosting - companies that provide packages that include anti-DDoS protection. These packages are considerably more expensive than regular ones. Nevertheless, they’re totally worth their price because the company will ensure that your website is secured from cyber attacks.
The more comfortable the control panel is, the easier will it be for you to change the website and hosting account settings.
Most hosting providers that are in TOP20 in our rating offer user-friendly control panels, such as cPanel, Plesk or DirectAdmin. That’s why we recommend to pay attention to other, more important parameters, while choosing a hosting provider.
