Web hosting is the main key to any web site and for your PBNs, this is no different.
We all have own opinions regarding web hostings, which is the best. But like always its horses for courses. For all my money sites I use cloud hosting, and for PBN’s I have found over the years it really isn’t a biggy who the hosting provider is.
Leaving footprints is a way bigger issue than choosing which web hosting to choose. And really every URL should have its own host account.
So without any further ado, let us take a look at 13 of the best web hostings on the market that you can use with your PBN network.
Now, remember these are for PBNs only and not for your money site. Mind you some do use these for that same reason but do your own due diligence if you decide to go that way.
In no special order, this is a small list of web hostings you can use for hosting your private blog network URL’s
1. Bluehost:
Bluehost has been around and is a common household name.
They have a good uptime guarantee and support is good.
Their cheapest hosting plan is the basic plan and that starts at $3.95 per month and at times you can jag it for $2.95. Prices do vary so keep an eye out for any promo codes.
You get free SSL certificate and domain name registration, to which you won’t be needing but you can always use it for another traffic source.

Good security. Hacks are rare.
Cons
Reseller program does not offer different IPs

8. HostMetro
They have a pretty average customer service going by others that have reviewed them as well, so glad we were not the only ones. Just remember tho these hostings are only for our PBNs so support really isn’t a huge killer.
The main key points we need is uptimes and at a pinch good load speeds. HostMetro uptimes is guaranteed at 99% and plans start at $2.95/month
What they do above most other hostings is Price Lock Guarantee.
Your rates are fixed the moment you sign up. No surprise renewals. No hidden fees
Pros
Good price for what is offered
Easy interface
Very easy verification, very rarely an account needs to be verified.
30-day-money back guarantee
Cons
Downtime issues are more common on this host than others
Support is not always fast
Limited IPs
9. Fat Cow
Note: Fatcow is very similar to Ipage as its owned by the same company.
The reports are not good as a web host and would stay away if looking to host a money site with them.
The reviews are poor from insanely slow support to which is a biggy, people have had there accounts closed for months and still getting hit with a hosting payments months later.
Still, be a good platform for what you need it for, just not recommended for money sites.
Plans are a bit on the pricey side for what we need. But it is another option once you have ran out of other avenues.
Pros
Many IPs
Support is average
Good security
30-day-money back guarantee
Cons
Very hard interface
Complicated to backup/move/transfer sites
