Conclusion:
If you’re looking for shared hosting, we’d recommend WebHostingHub over DreamHost. Not only are their shared plans much cheaper than DreamHost’s, but they also perform better, including faster page-loading and better usability. However, WebHostingHub only offers shared hosting, so if you need more advanced kinds of hosting, DreamHost is worth a try. Although DreamHost isn’t the most beginner-friendly host, they do offer strong performance and offer many kinds of VPS and dedicated plans to choose from.
