You know anyone who reads those books for dummies? Yep! a huge success in the publishing industry. May be it is for the same group. It's like they say "there is a market for everything".

I have never read any of those either. That is exactly the point I was trying to make. I don't have to read them, you don't have to read them but the fact that they are a huge success says that there is a market for it and that's one of the important things for any successful business.

Just did a WHOIS and yes sir even the domain WEBHOSTINGFORDUMMIES dot com has been taken.

I am not sure web hosting would be a good market to use such a domain ...but i have been wrong before.

anyways, good luck to them.

Hi,

I have hosting my account with these folks for a while now. They have outstanding technical support, you don't site on hold and they are always willing to lend a hand regardless of if its their problem or not, which its me or AOL making problems. They really do support their customers. If you call and ask a question about how to use someone elses software, they answer the question. I've had problems with my aol account they've helped me.

My first hosting company when I would ask these type questions they would tell me that I needed to call AOL or Microsoft. It seems that I'm not alone in my opinion because they have lots of letters posted from their customers raving about how great the support is.

All I know is that I needed a website and needed someone I could trust and apparently for them its working because I know of atleast 5 additional people that have been added in the last several months so they must be doing something right.

In my opinion they do something no one else does, support their clients and if you read the site, it says exactly that.
Just my .02

They really should redo the site design to match the books, might help some. Besides, the current design sucks :D

They have a site just not a working one. They have hosted for a long time with them but the site they have on thier profile seems like it was just opened.
