Editor Top Picks

Editor Top Picks are based on Joomla compatability, price, reliability, and excellence in customer service.

Over the years we have used many different hosting companies, worked with some good ones and a few terrible ones. The companies below all are excellent options for Joomla web sites.

If you decide to use one of these companies we would love to hear about your experience, in the form of a user review.. All reviews good and bad will help the Joomla community and make it easier for others to select the best Joomla Host.

If you are a (potential) customer of Pixel Criminals we strongly recommend that you select one of these companies.Our Best Joomla Hosts are selected on our personal experience and the experience of others.

We feel very confident that any of these options will provide you a good hosting experience.
