Great reasons to choose InMotion Want2Host users rate InMotion as 4.1 out of 5 – Excellent.

InMotion Hosting was founded in 2001 and is employee-owned. The company has a data centre in downtown Los Angeles and a secondary location in Virginia Beach, VA (the Los Angeles facility was the world’s first ever ‘green’ data centre, according to the InMotion Hosting blog). If you choose to buy a VPS or Business Class package, you can choose which data centre your site is hosted in, depending on where your clients are located - a nice touch.

InMotion is not the cheapest provider on the Web, nor is it disproportionately expensive. Ultimately, this service is a bang-for-your-buck investment in quality. With outstanding services, freebies, and extras, users will get a lot more for their money with InMotion plans. The pricing schedule below reflects the basic monthly hosting rates from the InMotion website at the time of my review; introductory rates are not included. I recommend checking with them for current pricing deals and promotions.

InMotion Ease of Use

Boasting over 310 easy-to-install applications (including WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla) via the intuitive control panel, InMotion offers one of the largest and most varied selection of tools and services provided by a Web host. With a clean, clear and simple control panel (used to help you manage your website behind the scenes), this is a flexible host you can get started with quickly. For the more technically-curious, I like that the host supports the popular LAMP stack (Linux, operating system, Apache server, MySQL database, and PHP programming language). This gives you the power to use InMotion your way – whatever your level of expertise may be. The InMotion hosting webmail login gives you access to your site’s communication from anywhere, even your smartphone. If you are like me and constantly on the go, you’ll appreciate being able to check your InMotion email on the fly from a tablet or other hand-held device.

InMotion Top 3 Pros and Cons

InMotion is a solid hosting option for online projects that require superior technical backing. Developers and other IT administrative personnel will easily relate to the company. As expected, the main pros and cons with InMotion are directly related to its advanced technical capabilities. If you are comfortable behind a control panel, you’ll love the pros. If right-clicking gives you the shakes, you probably will understand the cons. The reality is that these neutral pros and cons are relative to each online project.

Technical Service:​ High quality technical service

Customer Support: Award-winning customer support

Hosting: Free SSD for faster, more reliable hosting

InMotion Cons:
