DreamHost: Get a $79 discount

If you sign up for any of DreamHost’s yearly web hosting plans using the DreamHost promo code dirtcheap, you get a $79 one-time discount, for even cheaper hosting. Your savings are coming right out of my pocket. Instead of receiving the usual $97 commission, I will only be receiving a puny $18. To take advantage of the promo code, enter dirtcheap into the promotion code box in step 5 of the signup process. Your savings will then be:

Level 1: Crazy Domain Insane!

• 200GB storage space, 2TB monthly transfer.
• One-year pre-payment: $119.40 - $79 = $40.40.

Why should you choose Dreamhost?

Because DreamHost, in my humble opinion, is a great hosting company, offering affordable hosting, generous disk space and bandwith, and their customer service is good and friendly. On the technical side, they’re offering everything you would need, from Ruby on Rails to PHP, unlimited MySQL databases, shell access and subversion repositories, and if you don’t need these advanced features, they also have one-click installs of popular software like WordPress, MediaWiki and PHPBB.

You can read about my experience with DreamHost and Why I love DreamHost. Yes, I do think DreamHost are really, really great.

If you want to follow the DreamHost crew themselves, they have a blog that’s well worth reading.

So, sign up and don’t forget to use dirtcheap as your promo code in step 5 of the signup process.
