BF Hosting Provider Review
Although it had been a week since Black Friday 2025 is over, I noticed many hosting still running Black Friday sales and I looking to buy one up, however with over 30 choices, including:
- VisualWebTechnologies
- Ozonti
- SmokyHosts
- NovaCloudHosting
- eXact Digital
- HostMayo
- Velox Media
- Dewlance Hosting
- Cloudcone
- GreenWebPage
- FireVPS
- Hostodo
- Nhdhost
- Limitless Hosting
- Rackoona
- Rarecloud
- ServerHost
- AlphaVPS
- RackNerd
- Hostcram
- Hosthatch
- Delux Host
With all of these hosting companies, which hosting company would you recommended, as I will be using this for all of my projects, so I wanted good support, and good uptime.
Comments
OVH and GreenCloud.
Among the list you've provided, I can surely recommend Racknerd and AlphaVPS. GreenWebPage is also OK as Virtono reseller.
@SolidVPS wonderful Hoster!
Do it as a poll
How are you getting on with the RareCloud you have on your signature?
Inactivity? Good CPU?
From that list I would choose AlphaVPS and HostHatch.
I've got 10 services with Rarecloud. Just 1 is inactive, because of their migration, Is about de3.rarecloud.io which gets transferred to another datacenter, as RareCloud mentioned. So, I know the reason and I'm sure it will get sorted out nicely, with a better CPU.
All other 9 services are up, I just logged in, right now, trey are up, running.
As I said, just de3.rarecloud.io is down. but we know about (migration).
About ticketing, they've always answered me, in a decent time frame. I couldn't connect to a VPS and they have replaced the IP same day, after few hours, of course, but it was fast, ok, generous, helpful. Other tickets were not so important, but they still answered them, at that time. I don't have any opened ticket.
For me, Rarecloud is a good provider. Has good prices, I've got excellent specs for the money I paid. A lot better than other providers. For me, Rarecloud is on top.
Unfortunately, I don't think I can edit the post through
+1 @Lampard
Afaik Hosthatch doesn't have BF deals anymore? At least the deals listed on LET is not offered anymore.
I can share my comments about them if you care
Also there is GreenCloudVPS (good) have some services with them.
Rarecloud is a very poor, even fraudulent, one-man business.

Sure, would love to heard about your comment.
From the list, any good web-hosting (cpanel/DA/any control-panel)?
Kuroit was good ! lots of reboots lately Tampa IPv6 is dead for 2 weeks now and he just ignores the tickets.
For solid service, I'll go with one of these @berohost, @SolidVPS or @HostDZire.
Great price, stable network and excellent support when you need it.
I need something basic for n8n. What do you guys recommend?
I would suggest RackNerd, BTW!
Racknerd is the only one that is on this list I've actually been with for a long time. Solid service and uptime. I can personally vouch for WebHorizon too.
I've bought from Hostbrr, Rarecloud and Deluxhost this Black Friday, only knowing from other users here that Hostbrr is pretty solid. I'm unsure about the others. Deluxhost looks pretty good but they've only existed for 2 years. Rarecloud has a bit of an abuse problem, I frequently see their ranges on AbuseIPDB.
Stay away from VisualWebTechnologies, at least when it comes to their reseller hosting. Today they tried to bill me 4 months after I've cancelled my (mediocre) services with them. I'll have to write about it somewhere.
