Hosting Rating Site

If you're new here, don't forget to subscribe to my RSS feed. You will regret it if you don't.

Thanks for visiting! See you again Soon!!!

I am starting to look for some other web hosts out there.  I am about to begin to dabble in the dark arts of CPA Affiliate Programs and need to scatter my hosts somewhat.  I don’t want to have all of my mini-sites in the same basket, and I definitely don’t want my mini-site experiments to hurt the rankings of my more serious sites.

So along with reading the articles available at WebHostingRating Articles, and now I have found another great WebHostingRating Articles, and now I have found another great webhosting rating site, WebHostingChoice.

If you don’t think that you go enough information at WebHostingRating, there is a good FAQ at Web Hosting Choice.  The other great source of information  at this site is the Cheap Web Hosting page and their Web hosting scams page, here they talk about the downfalls of going with a host that is soo cheap that it is “too good to be true”….Well you are probably right it is.

One of the biggest scams is the Unlimited bandwidth/storage

Unlimited bandwidth/space - it is simply impossible for a company to offer unlimited space or bandwidth to use. As hosting companies and their associated technologies are themselves limited (i.e. bandwidth or hard disk space), unlimited offerings are usually just an advertising gimmick. Often you will find clauses embedded deep within the company’s terms of service contract that negate the unlimited offering. The clauses are usually arbitrary, such as excessive CPU usage will be grounds for account termination.UnlimBand is a good resource to learn more.

So head over to WebHostingChoice and let me know what you think.

I am sure that if you are new in the online community, or are currently on a hosted solution and want to move to a “self-hosted” solution this is a great place to start you brainstorming on the host that you are going to choose.  It is a big decision and your host is going to be a factor in that amount of money that you are going to make online.

Added Contact Page

I have finially added the very necessary contact page.

Now if you want to contact me regarding this site it is easy as pie.  When you use the form, which is a free Wordpress plugin from Mike Cherim, I get an email that I will be sure to respond to ASAP.  But I, like everyone, HATE spam so don’t try to sell me something.  You can always give me something for free and I will review it.  But I won’t give a recommendation to something that sucks :)

Happy Blogging
