Diatone.net now offers completely new reseller plans.

Most resellers have to go through monthly billing statements from their hosts that are total mayhem, accounts all over the place. But with Diatone, you buy one account from us, and that's it. No extra charges, no hidden fees. We remain completely in the background. Your clients will not know you are hosted by us. You just take care of your clients while we worry about the hardware and software.

Plans start at $30.00/month for 1GB of space and 12GB of transfer with unlimited domains/accounts. All plans are listed at http://resellers.diatone.net 15% Discount for any plans purchased on a yearly basis.

Thank you.

Maybe its just me, but I ready your subject and I find it in poor taste. Why couldn't you just describe your product and your prices rather than a headline saying like McHost except cheaper. How would you like it if someone else came along and said, "Like Diatone, except we provide good service"? Let you product stand on its own, because in the long run that is not only more professional, but you will be better thought of. And, at this relatively young point in your history, I don't really think you want to get into a comparison battle with McHost.

Well, in real business, this happens. Companys tell people if they have a better deal then another company. On t.v, magazines, anywhere you look. It's part of the game. And as for someone saying "Diatone.net except we offer good service", would be different. That wouldn't be a fact, but a biased opinion. I presented fact. Also, I do not really know why you said we wouldn't like to go into a comparison battle since we are relatively young.. MCHOST has only been open one month longer then we have..

All bickering aside, now that I got my side out, overall, your right, for me anyways.. I shouldn't have done that. While I do not find it wrong, I would rather present my company on its own, with no other mention of any other companys.. I didn't think my goal through. Thank you for your comment.

Perhaps it happens in everyday life (comparative advertising) but the best way to go on your own feets is to talk about your merchandise.

I am a reseller of mchost and I guarantee you that you do not offer in this moment the services offered by mchost so you are not at all equivalent.

Your offer is: 1 G space and 12 G traffic cheaper than 1 G space and 12 G traffic from McHost. That's all.

Good luck.

Geez, he just used MCHosts's plans.
He never said anything about being a better company or offering better services, he just said the plans are the same but cheaper.
While it might annoy some, MCHost should be complimented by that.
Instead of advertising his own product he strictly relies on the popularity of MCHost, and its also a kind of advertisement for MCHost.

And toma1708, if you haven't tried both, you cant tell.
I, personally, tried none :)
