I looked around at hosts today and did a search to check up on them.
I find the easiest way to find out if a host is good or not is type the host’s name, and then “sucks” right after it.
Well I found one with the least amount of what I would call “valid complaints” such as major downtime and such.
Look at me rambling without giving my sites a plug.
iworkwithpeople.com
iworkwithtech.com
truxtertech.com <—– My new domain name.
I forwarded iworkwithtech.com to the same location, so they are both going to be the same for a little while until I get done splitting them into two . I do have plans. Other wise I wouldn’t have pitched out money like that.
as I was looking at hosting sites. I noticed a lot of the sites like blue host, you you know , the ones that claim unlimited storage space and bandwidth for like 7 dollars a month. They all had tons of complaints. I stopped on the one I got when I saw realistic numbers.. Well to me they are unbelievable, considering I’m a bit old school.
15,000 Gigs/Month
(500+ Gigs/Day!)
Disk Space (Raid Storage) | 1,500 GB |
Can you tell I copied and pasted that from the site?
well 49 bucks a year for that , not so bad.
PHP capable. That alone stomps all over my old out dated host 50megs.com.
I can’t believe the crap I was accepting. 75 a year for 1 gig storage no scripting no ht access, nothing. Each thing I would want turned on like “security and registration privacy” add 3 dollars a month for each upgrade. on top of that, their name server is “freewebs.com” WTF!!!!!!? you can’t register that crap with anyone, no one takes that junk serious. freewebs, come on man.
Well I went on with powweb . I am happier with this move over where I was. So if you have any input such as “oh man you should have gone to…” blah blah blah. Don’t bother responding. The bill has been paid, I’m gonna camp a little while.
I have used powweb for quite some time now with absolutely no complaints. I have also referred them to a client of mine. I have recently look at GoDaddy because of Chris Pirillo and, others having promoted them. I will soon be purchasing my on domain after a long time with out a personal web presence. I will be going with GoDaddy. I will post in my blog when this happens to inform people of my opinions of them.
