Before you start your own website, sooner or later you will consider where to host your website.  There are so many web hosting services out there, each offering almost same kind of service, then how can you tell which one is the best?  This post summarizes major web hosting services and rank them by Alexa traffic rank (from high to low).

Lowest Annual Plan column is showing the annualized lowest price marketed in each company’s website, they are accurate as of the modification date of this post, and are subject to change.

I personally feel that Alexa Rank plays a more important role than Lowest Annual Price in telling you about the service of a website, as it tells you in general how popular a website is, yet Lowest Annual Price is usually a marketing tool used by websites to attract sign ups.  I would recommend using Alexa Rank combined with lowest annual plan to make buying decisions.
