If you need peace of mind choosing a reliable web hosting provider is the only way. I have found a web hosting company that sells a plan (don’t ask if it has unlimited resource, because this is a commodity nowadays) that offers 5 terabyte of diskspace and 500 terabytes bandwidth per month just for 50 dollars and this isn’t a year by year fee but it is onetime fee for lifetime! Tell me who on earth will count on this firm? You have to wait in order this provider to close to say that it is a scam? Don’t you get it that it is ridiculous to trust this kind of practices? Web hosting is far more complicated than just diskspace and bandwidth. If you are completely ignorant of <a href="http://www.webhostingart.com" rel="nofollow">web hosting</a> industry (my personal website) you can’t create a company by just outsourcing everything. Common sense and researching is your only weapon to the constantly expanding war of web hosting offers. Very well said.

I never go for people offering hosting on Digital Point, after hearing so many horrific stories of people getting scammed, slow unresponsive servers and overselling. After all, many of them are resellers of other hosting companies selling their services on DP. I host my sites on Hostgator, which is undoubtedly the best out of all mainstream hosting companies in terms of up time and customer support. They also oversell, but they know how to do their stuff. I have myself written a post about how hosting companies are misleading innocent customers by using the "Unlimited" marketing jargon. If its allowed, here is the post link: http://www.domainmarvelous.com/featured_articles/unlimited-domain-hosting-how-unlimited/ Rule of the thumb: Pay a few extra dollars with reputable hosts and never regret.... or pay cheap now and get updated on your cursing 101 lessons...

If there were really unlimited 2.99/month plans, then why do people bother paying $200+/month for dedicated servers? Nice post. PS: What was wrong with your old host? Weren't you using HostedFX?

I pay slightly over what most hosts offer, but the support is always online and willing to help. Whenever I am helping someone in the website hosting part of things, I generally give them some tips: - Good Support - PAID Hosting (can't trust free hosting these days ;) ) - Shared hosting I have been running on shared hosting for two years, only one VPS used for a big site I used to have. Anyway, nice tips and keep up the good work Janith :lol: Well to be honest, I have used the same hosting company for six years!
