<h1>InMotion Hosting complete web hosting solutions including vps hosting, business hosting, dedicated servers, web design, cpanel support</h1>

General

InMotion hosting has been providing businesses with web hosting since 2001 from their offices in Los Angeles, CA and Virginia Beach, VA. Their datacenter is located in downtown L.A. while their tech support is based in Virginia Beach. Note that they do not outsource tech support around the world.

InMotion's position is definitely oriented towards business hosting rather than personal web hosting. They offer the whole range of hosting plans from starter shared hosted plans, to virtual private servers to dedicated / managed servers.

User experience
Our InMotion test site showed to be very responsive.

Follow up:

We were able to perform 10 simultaneous FTP transfers, which is outstanding and makes site maintenance extremely fast.

InMotion uses the industry proven cPanel architecture. No surprises there.

The default settings allow for reasonable operation without running into annoying limitations.

Customer satisfaction
Our satisfaction surveys show that what their customers appreciate the most is the quality of the tech support.

This concurs with our own findings that InMotion will not run the latest cutting edge versions of software like the control panel, PHP or MySQL. They will rather focus on the latest proven stable version in order to provide their clients with the highest stability and a seemless experience.

We have also noticed that InMotion was rated "A" by the Better Business Bureau (L.A.) which is excellent and sufficiently rare in the hosting industry to be noted.
Technical specs

* PHP version: 4.4.1 -- Up to date but the default should be PHP5

Update: InMotion is now switching to suPHP (instead of mod_php) which is a good thing.

Overall security is average.
