What Happened to A Small Orange?
A Small Orange was part of the wave of independent hosting brands (like HostGator and HostNine) that Endurance International Group, and later Web.com/Newfold Digital, rolled up over the years. At last check, asmallorange.com redirects directly to a Web.com “asmallorange” branded page rather than a working independent storefront, and the affiliate tracking link we originally used to send readers there dead-ends. The brand name survives as a page inside Web.com’s hosting lineup, but the standalone company — and the 15%-off deal it ran — appears to be gone.
We’re leaving the old code, GIFT15, right here rather than pretending we never offered it. If you try it and it works, great — let us know. But don’t count on it.
Of the hosting companies we’ve personally used and mentioned over the years, Bluehost is the one whose discount link we’ve verified still works today. Bluehost is one of the largest hosting providers around, officially recommended by WordPress.org itself, with shared hosting plans that are easy to set up even if you’ve never hosted a site before.

My Old A Small Orange Review
Back when we first wrote this post, I had a handful of sites spread across different hosts. My e-commerce site ran on a pricier, fancier host; a couple of personal, low-stakes sites ran on cheap basic hosting. A Small Orange was the lovely in-between: a small, cozy operation with fast, reliable hosting and friendly support, at a reasonable price. I used it for CouponSuck itself for years. It’s a shame the independent version of that experience seems to be gone.
If you want that same “in-between” feel today — solid reliability without enterprise pricing — Bluehost is the closest thing we can still vouch for with a working link.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is A Small Orange still in business?
Not as an independent hosting company, as far as we can tell. Its site now redirects to a Web.com-branded page, part of Web.com/Newfold Digital’s hosting portfolio, and the old affiliate link no longer resolves to a working offer.
Does the GIFT15 code still work?
We can’t confirm it does — the checkout page it pointed to is no longer live. We’re keeping it listed for the record, but we wouldn’t count on it.
What should I use instead of A Small Orange?
We recommend Bluehost. It’s a major host, officially recommended by WordPress.org, and our discount link for it is verified working.
What other hosts has CouponSuck used?
Over the years we’ve also used MediaTemple (fancier, pricier, great support) and HostMonster (cheap, fine for low-traffic personal sites). Neither of those links has been re-verified recently, so treat them as informational rather than a guaranteed discount.
