HostRocket Conclusion
HostRocket offers a robust and feature-rich package that should satisfy almost any individual or business requirement. The variable-length term of service (with its graduated cost) is a plus not offered by every hosting service. While their list of included features is full and attractive, it does include some hidden costs that might otherwise be standard with other vendors.

StartLogic Conclusion
With their redundant server network design, StartLogic is consistently rated highest in reliability, uptime and customer satisfaction. Along their standard ProLogic package, they also offer several other packages including options that may be better suited to other individuals or businesses, depending on their specific needs.
