Info-Profits Talk - Searching for Hosting Service

jeremy122

I would like give my 2 pennies of advice. I have been with about 6 hosting companies. Some hosting companies take days or even weeks to reply to emails, very frustrating. and with some hosts my website was down usually.

I am now with http://www.parallelex.com/hosting.html and I have been happy so far. My website has never been down and they usually reply to my emails within 24 hours. They have great customer service and nice hosting plans.

50 mb Space, 10 Gb Bandwidth for $20/yr.
500 mb Space, 50 Gb Bandwidth for $40/yr.
1000 mb Space, 100 Gb Bandwidth for $60/yr.

If someone is looking for a hosting service, I would strongly recommend http://www.parallelex.com/hosting.html

Just a nice suggetion so that you don't waste your money like I did.

I have also tried free hosting, they require ads to be put on my website; service and uptime is no good. I would pay $40 or $ 60 per year rather than a free host.

Hello

Do you have more information about who runs the company? The lack of a business address would concern me about using them.

Sincerely,

Hi Jeremy?

Are you basing your hosting choices on price?

How did you make your previous hosting choices?

How long have you been using Parallel Exchange?
How long with the ~6 previous ones?

Note: It looks like the domain name was just registered
Feb 08, 2004...

Seeing that there is no real contact info on the
site itself... that would be a cause for concern.
The only thing you see is that they're in California...

These are good hosting prices.

Hello My Friends,

The guys at http://www.hostgator.com are great. I like them because they personally answer the phone and are quick to resolve problems. Before I found these guys, I was unhappy with hosting services.

Good Success!

I've got one site at HostGator (moved there since the start of the year), and so far I've never had any problems with them. So I'd have to add my vote to them being reliable.

My favorite host though is Site5 (http://www.site5.com) I've been with them almost 2 years, had very little downtime, they've always answered any queries I've have within 2 hours (usually within minutes), and they actually let you know if/when they will be doing maintenance (which affects your site).

The only thing they don't offer is lots of mySQL databases, which is why I have one of my sites with HostGator :)

Cheers,
Jason
