Solid, reliable hosting for grownups
I selected Certified after having a bad experience with BlueHost, who changed their AUP to prohibit any kind of "profanity." I run six blog-based sites, two of which are adult oriented (not porn) and I don't have the time nor the inclination to moderate all posts and comments for naughty words. I don't need adult-specific hosting, just one that allows occasional adult content, and Certified provides this at very competitive rates.
I had a little issue with Certified at the beginning because I neglected to redirect one of my unused domain names to another site, so their automated system assumed I was using it for file storage or some other prohibited activity. A quick call to customer service and a minor tweak on my end fixed this. Otherwise, I haven't had to contact customer service at all. Uptime has been good, and my site response time has been a bit slow on occasion but not often enough to be an issue. Certified uses a standard cPanel interface and Softaculous script installation, which is not as pretty as SimpleScripts but works well.
