Uptime and Reliability

With dedicated servers, you get an entire server, running your site; not only does this mean your site will not go down as often, but along with a 99.9% uptime guarantee, your site will rarely, if ever go down. It is 300% wind powered, so even if electricity does go down, the hosting provider is going to be able to keep your site up and running, to ensure little to no loss for your customers, who want to reach your site.

If you are a business that likes green hosting, this is a top choice host for you to consider. Not only are their offices powered by solar panels and wind turbines, they use renewable resources in their plans. This, along with the many great features, all coming in at a price of under $4, is something you won't get with many other hosts. Like all hosts they do have issues every once in a while, but for the low price, GreenGeeks is a great hosting option for small businesses.
GreenGeeks Pros
  • High Server Speeds
  • High Uptime
  • Unlimited Storage and Bandwidth
  • Very attractive entry price
  • Green hosting
GreenGeeks Cons
  • Support only "good". Does not match the excellent other features
