I am a serious newbie in regards to finding a hosting service.
Their price seems good to me.
Does anyone have any experiences that I may use to formulate an opinion?
Thank you.

Their prices are a tad low...but not too bad.

However the domain was registered May 16th, 2003. So you amy or may not be interested in signing up with such a new company.

I am looking for a place that will give me between 200-300 mb to upload pics to.
A few emails.
Frontpage.
and 1-2 gigabytes of transfer per month with the ability to upgrade if needed.
Also, reliability and a good track record.
All for about $30-$50 a year.
Am I asking too much?

I don't think that your demands are too great at all. I think that you should be able to find hosting that suits your needs somewhere in that category.

The domain registration date is pointless, as it could well be registred on a year by year basis since 1900 (summer :P)
Anyhow, the guy is posting in FWS alot and...dunno, it might be a good chance to start with a montlhy payment. :eek:
just my one cent and a half.

When a domain is owned for an amount of time (check me if I am incorrect) it would show up when renewed.

I'm not allowed to link in this thread- just that it's another hosting community, smaller than this (called WHT)
Anyway, use the search button and try to find some reviews about bizzare host. If you don't find anything, try your luck in the Hosting Request forum - asking exactly what you need
Best regards.
CrazyTech, sorry, you're right. Nice pointing that, as i never saw "renewed on", but it just keeps counting the years :eek:

Well I didnt mean that it would say renewed on, but the date would be similar to... Created on: 8/10/2001 Last Modified on: 8/10/2002

As you would not want to risk losing the domain somehow if you were a host, you would renew your account payment before the 1 year (2 years or whatever) period was up.

Anyway, i'm curious what SeanT is planning to do...

I believe I have narrowed it down between cirtexhosting, bizarre-host, arvixe and e-rice.
Trying to do some research on customer satisfaction.
Anyone have any experiences with either of these companies?
