    Problem with all these "unlimited" hosting plans is that once you use up more than the allocated processing power, which is probably like 1%, then you're forced to upgrade or else you'd risk losing all the data on the web.

    I don't think this is a good webhosting or trusted webhosting...

    first, they mention that they have 100% uptime guarantee..I think it's too good to be true for web hosting
    second, they claim that has A+ acreditation from bbb but I've just search their company at bbb.org and I don't find their company registered..

    Please be careful

    Thanks narender for your info

    Good point as this happened to my girlfriend although she does pay now and is happy with what she has, it sounds more like a marketing ploy..
    Thank you narander for sharing the information with the forum, maybe a trial to see wouldn't be a bad thing either...

    I tried it, bought a .us domain name on sale at domainrightnow for 4 dollars. uploaded free cheveroto image hosting script, uploaded free spambot security script zbblock, Now i have my own private image hosting site for me myself and I.
    Had no fees for adding in cpanel domain i purchased . I haven't tried the mysql, but i don't intend to either that would use up too much cpu usage and they might send a hassle email saying to upgrade account,"previous dreamhost experience".
    fxp file transfer doesn't work. I ran into some error with the GD library extension, sent a support ticket they responded saying they are installing it on all the servers and the issue was fixed within hours.

    It's good for limited uses but as for serving up a site like raymond.cc or likehacker ect... no way you would need dedicated server for that.

    Question:
    Is it easy to cancel after 3 year? Does it have hidden fee? I want to start my own website/blog. Don't know where is the good place to start?

    Thanks for the share . I'll skip it.
    I don't need to know everything, I just need to know where to find it, when I need it.

    thnx buddies...i went to live chat on their site and asked if their site is verified by Sitelock??? They said that yes it has been awarded with SiteLock 2011 award..There is a image on the Lower right corner. I said how can i beleive if this image is uploaded on your own and not verified by sitelock... He was confused and asked me to contact the billing department...However they were not online at that time..They dont even know about rapidleech..I asked do you allow rapidleech???He said i dont know what is rapidleech and what are you talking about???
    Man what a weird hosting....I would vote to skip it......... and continue with my hostmonster hosting account.......
