I happened to come across several blogs and websites in the recent times that have started to refer Dreamhost’s web hosting service, some of them offering various promotional offers, but none of them offering the best possible deal. This prompted me to put this post up to offer the best deal that you can ever get at Dreamhost and which applies to all the hosting plans that Dreamhost offers.

(For those who know the drill, the promo code is TAB97, which will get you a discount of $97 on any Dreamhost plan. This promo code will make it $23 for one year of hosting service under the most basic plan, for example.)

Follow these simple steps to recieve maximum discount:

First gather some information(“research”) to decide whether Dreamhost is a good hosting service provider for your requirements or not. Continue to the next step only if you think that Dreamhost is for you. (I plan to review a couple of hosting providers in the near future.) Once you decide that you want to go with Dreamhost, go to the the sign-up page and select the plan that suits you the best. When filling out the information, enter “TAB97″(without the quotes) in the “Promo Code or email of who referred you:” text field. Click “Continue to secure payment” button to continue to the next page.
Maximum Discount At Dreamhost - $97 You should see that $97 are deducted from the total price of the plan that you have selected. For example, if you have selected “L1: Crazy Domain Insane” package, then $97 should be deducted from the price of $120 for one year worth of hosting, making the final payable amount around $23. Doubly make sure that correct amount has been deducted before continuing further.

$97 Discount Using Promo Code TAB97 With Dreamhost

Enter the rest of the information needed to place the order.

Don’t be fooled by any other promotional code that you recieve promising a discount of $25, $50 or something like that. The maximum discount that you can get at Dreamhost from such promotional codes is $97 and that is what you get with my promotional code TAB97(as I didn’t chose to split the discount between me and the referred customer). You can also search for similar promotional codes that give you the maximum discount possible($97) by going to the Dreamhost forums.

Coming to the question of how good Dreamhost’s hosting service is, no one can give a verdict that holds true in everyone’s case, but I believe that it’s definitely worth $23 for hosting with them for an year. I Hope to follow this up with a more detailed review of Dreamhost soon; until then, have a look at their complete feature set.

NOTE:

I will try to post an update here as soon as the above promotional code ceases to work, but it should work for a long time to come in my estimation. I am not sure but it is believed that the promotional codes only apply if you place the order with Dreamhost using a credit card. Check with the Dreamhost support staff if you wish to pay through paypal/check/money order.
