Has anyone ever had any experiences with the webhosting services from Hawk Communications (www.hawkcommunications.com)? I'm looking at some affordable web hosting options for
my organization's website, and I've found the price to be right with Hawk and the customer service to
be quick and courteous with my questions so far. Because of this, I am surprised that no one
seems to have heard of them!

I'm also still researching affordable but dependable web hosting for my text and gifs/jpegs page. Any other
recommendations/advice you could give would be appreciated. Thanks.

They advertise on CNet. They have been evaluated there. You can even e-mail some of the former and current users -

Here are some links to some Hawk Commununication's users:

Quote on WebHostingTalk: Client tried to renew name, and could not, after it entered redemption they went up to $75. But still could not process, then Hawk purchased domain and then offered it back to customer for $200. Just a racket to make money, customer told them to stick the domain name up their arse Link to thread:

Hawk charges customer $200.00 to buy back domain name (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=261388&perpage=15&pagenumber=2 )

Knowledge is power, and you might have a very good experience with them.

Not sure if you noticed or not watchdog but this is a VERY old post from 2001.

Is Hawk Communications under the same management? If so, it still doesn't excuse them for what they did.
