IONOS Hosting vs. Just Host

I run five websites off of 1&1 for different outshoots of the company. For our web needs it works perfectly. We have a midgrade hosting package and it works perfectly. I know if issues arose from traffic or storage space 1&1 would have a solution for us.

Just Host is great option for affordable domain registration and web hosting. There are numerous promo codes that can cut your first bill by 50%, so pay ahead! Just Host also offers one-click WordPress installation and built-in tools like the Mojo Marketplace where companies and individuals can purchase professional-looking themes for their WordPress sites. If you're looking to start a WordPress site, this is a great place to do that. However, our websites have grown tremendously in the past year and we have noticed the sites slow down as traffic increases. This has resulted in some major problems with our popular blog (6,000–10,000 page views per month) and we are looking at alternative options to Just Host.

Rackspace I find to be too pricey for the service they offer. Pagely is very much WordPress oriented. I've had downtime with both that I haven't experienced with 1&1.

The scalability of the email solution far exceeds our needs and would be suitable for organizations not looking for an enterprise sized multipurpose solution (O365, Google Workspace, etc).
