Is Your Web Host Too Good to be True? by The Quantum
Host
When searching for a
hosting
company, make certain to stay away from web hosting deals that
seem too good to
be true.
If
the package sounds too good to be
true, chances are it is. There are several respectable
web hosting
companies out there working diligently to operate a good
business.
You will come across the good and the bad in
the web hosting industry. Luckily
for every one poor hosting company
there are many more companies that know what
it takes to operate a
hosting business. The other day I came across a link in
the deals
section for an unlimited web hosting plan. I have seen the
word
"Unlimited" used several times in web hosting marketing and
it
bothers me, along with a few more things.
First of all, the web pages
on
this site did not work properly. This should be a red flag that you
might not
want to do business with this company. If they can’t get
their site to work
properly then why should they be concerned with
yours? The only part that
seemed to work was the Paypal link for you to pay for
Web
hosting.
Another thing that annoyed me was that they
were offering a
"lifetime" membership for the low price of sixty
dollars. This is an
example of another “too good to be true”
promotions. A web server cannot really
be run in such a
manner.
So remember to watch out for these “remarkable”
deals. There are folks out
there that only want your money, and not
your business. Thankfully though there
are a lot more honest and hard
working folks that hate these practices as much
as me such as iPowerweb,
The
Quantum
Host, and APlus.net.
Even if it takes a little
longer, or costs a little more, take the time to find
an all around
good web host. Do your homework, and you will be happy for many
web
hosting years to come.
