How We Review and Rank Web Hosts How We Do Reviews Our reviews focus on a few primary areas: General Impression: Our overall impression of the host in relation to its servies, prices, and quality. Cost/Value: A comparison of cost versus what you get for it compared to other hosts. Storage/Bandwidth: Simple check for how much space and bandwidth you actually get. Features: Valuation of the feature set the host offers compared to other hosts in their class. Reliability: How fast web pages load, how reliable the servers are, and the overall "feel" of the connection. Support: How efficient and proficient the support personel are for the host. After gathering this information we then take an overview of the user reviews submitted to us and come up with a final score for the host. All user-reviews are verified to ensure that the accounts really do exist on the proper host. We do this to help ensure that reviews are legitimate and prevent any tampering with the review scores. If you'd like to submit a user-review for one of our hosts please visit the review of that host and at the bottom you will find a submission form. Other Commonly Asked Questions Are your reviews real? Yes they are. We take pride in being different than most of the web hosting review sites out there. We don no factor in any economic incentives into their final rankings. We take pride in not following the trend of most of the hosting review sites out there that are only interested in making a bounty off of a referral and therefore list the biggest bounties at the top of their list. So wait, you make money doing this? Some days we do. This is a very competitive industry so we're constantly trying to be the best we can - maintaining this site takes a fair bit of time and money. Like any media source there is money to be made and it's unlikely there are any review sites out there that aren't on the web to make money. If they say they are you should question their motivations very closely. I tried the host you listed but I experienced different results. How come? Most of the hosts in the sub $10 price range use shared hosting. This means that you aren't the only person who has a website on the computer being used to host your site. Sometimes you can end up on a computer which is under heavier than normal load and or maybe there was just a problem on that machine (hardware failure etc.). This doesn't mean that the host isn't good and you should definitely ask them if there's an easy fix for the issue you're facing. Most of the hosts we've dealt with really do want your business so if you find something doesn't seem to be performing as it should you should definitely talk with your host about it. Your site lists host X with feature Y but that's not true. What gives? Hosts are constantly battling with one another for the best, most cost-effective setup. They want your business and they are changing daily to get it. Chances are they've changed something since we last reviewed them and we haven't noticed.
