It happens sometimes that a user purchases a hosting plan at some company then downloads Open Classifieds and tries to run it on his website but he gets surprised with unexpected errors, most of the times that is due to an incompatible hosting with Open Classifieds.

Tested hosting Not working with Open Classifieds

these web hosting providers have been tested and all proved to not work with Open Classifieds at the date of posting this article (some may change in time)

1. iPage
2. fatcow
3. godaddy windows based hosting
4. 000webhost
5. Any other windows hosting is not recommended

My personal recommendation would be Inmotion Hosting if you’re in the US and A2 hosting if you’re in Europe, Middle-east and North Africa they’re both good with 24/7 tech support, all companies have pros and cons but for me I feel comfortable when dealing with those two companies.

If you didn’t find your web hosting on any of the two lists then make sure it’s compatible with Open Classifieds by checking the software requirements
