Does anybody have experience with lowesthosting.com ?

They seem like a solid company.

Thanks.

I have limited experience with them. Their support seems to be very fast and they have a pretty good uptime, but their control panel leaves a lot to be desired.

Ut oh! Big red flag.. Read this from there site..

Traffic... Why Unlimited Is So Important

Most web hosting companies advertise 500 megabytes - 2 Gigabytes (2000 megabytes) of traffic per month and charge 4 cents or more per megabyte over your allocation.

These companies will tell you that with an average page size of 40k, you'll get 50,000 pages on a 2 Gig account and this will be adequate for your needs.....Or is it ?

Consider: The average page size has grown to about 75k due to increased use of graphics and Java scripts, and that does not even address the use of 500k flash animations used on some web site home pages.

Consider: Each customer going to your website will view at least the home page, and those that are interested in your site will view other pages as well. It is not uncommon for a customer to view 10 or more different pages within your site and consume 750k per visit. That means your 2G/m account would only allow 2666 visits per month or roughly 89 visits per day. If you had 150 visits per day, you would exceed your bandwidth allotment by 1.37G and have to pay an extra $54.80 in bandwidth surcharges.

For example, one of our customers www.southafricatraveler.com runs a very graphic intensive 7 meg /100 page site and averages 15 page views/customer with 120 customers hitting their site each day. If they were on a 2G/m limited site they would be paying an extra $71.20 per month for bandwidth surcharges. Just imagine if they did a large advertising campaign and had 400 clients/day; it would cost them $424.00 per month in bandwidth surcharges !

Lowest Hosting includes Unlimited Bandwidth with each account so you never have to worry about extra bandwidth charges.
