Looking for a terrific webhost can be a very tiresome process, after you have read this, you will need to look no further.

Any webhost can supply you with space and bandwidth, but what happens when you run into a problem? It's not like you have root or physical access to the box, and this means you must wait (sometimes hours) for the problem to be fixed; how long does your host take to respond to your e-mails? Ronnie @ AlwaysWebhosting.com has always responded to my support e-mails in less than 2.5 hours. Does your webhost offer this? Due to my ignorance I've sometimes bombared Ronnie with 15 - 25 e-mails a day, and he has never left one unanswered. Ronnie is always willing to go out of his way for me. Whether it's requesting a new piece of software be installed, or help with a php script, Ronnie will always help to the best of his abilities. Good support is the most important factor in defining an excellent webhost. At AlwaysWebhosting.com you will have prompt turnaround, knowledgeable advice, and most importantly a host that is willing to go out of it's way to please it's customers.

Excellent support isn't the only thing that makes AlwaysWebhosting.com the most attratice host; visit their site, and you'll find prices that can't be beat! Bar none, they have the most affordable hosting rates you will ever find on the Internet. I have compared their rates w/ the rates of 20 other companies @ WHT and have found nothing that even comes close. And as if having the lowest prices on the best packages isn't enough, Ronnie tops it all off with special freebies JUST for members of WebHostingTalk! With my package, Ronnie doubled the webspace!

There have been rumors around here that AlwaysWebhosting.com will cancel your account after using only 5 GB of bandwidth a month; As a paying customer of AlwaysWebhosting.com I am currently using over 20 GB/month in bandwidth and have not had my account deleted, or even heard a peep of complaint from Ronnie. This is obviously a vicious lie intended to hurt the business of the most successful webhosting company on these boards!

Please visit AlwaysWebhosting.com (http://www.alwayswebhosting.com) and check them out for yourself. I have been launching websites for 5 years, and I am delighted to say I have never found a better host!

PS: Ronnie has in no way payed me to post this. This is my opinion of this terrific host, and I decided to post this message because of the absolute satisifcation I have had with AlwaysWebhosting.com (http://www.alwayswebhosting.com) .

Congratz on finding a good host... seems like it should belong in the advertising forum as it is written more as an advertisement than a testimonial but I guess not...

Good luck in the future

It's not an advertisement, it is intended to be a testimonial.

Too many newbie adverts (testimonials) for AWH. Just an observation. :(

Well gee, what do you expect. Do you want people to post 100 messages before they provide a testimonial?

Hmm sounds to much like a advertisement , i mean how many times can you throw in AlwaysWebhosting.com url into a testimonial.:rolleyes:

His web site is in his signature, and it's clearly hosted by them.

Why are so many people so damn suspicious? :rolleyes:

LOL, this is funny. Actually, my sites are all hosted with AlwaysWebHosting.com, and I did over 60 GB of bandwidth my first month, and 42 GB so far this month. My sites haven't been turned off. The service is incredible, I'm certain this isn't a fluke . . .

Ronnie really does provide excellent service. It doesn't get any better than that. I will move all of my customers sites over to his service as they come due for renewal. And I have both my companies sites hosted with him. That in itself is a testemonial. I have never had bot of my company sites on the same server before!

I checked out their plans and thought they seemed reasonable..but, I guess it's just me, since it's a church website that I'm finding a home for, the "alwaysbabe.com" link on their front page just kind of turned me in the other direction.

In regards to what NexDog posted. I may not have a HUGE post count, but why would that make my credibility any less? I am a well seasoned webmaster that has been hosting sites for years. I am in no way a "newbie" to webhosting. Just because I don't spam these boards does not mean my opinion counts any less. What you are saying actually does not make any sense whatsoever.

Also in regards to what BadBoy posted. AlwaysWebhosting.com is the name of the webhost. How can I talk about a webhost without mentioning their name, and it makes it a lot more convienent for readers to be able to click the link. Is it possible to write an autobiography without using "I" all the time?

lilviv, and ToastyX I am glad you have also found the holy grail of webhosting!

Upon further inspection of NexDog's hosting services it would cost you over $29.95 a month to get JUST 1/4 of what I get @ AlwaysWebhosting.com. No wonder NexDog is trying to speak badly of me; he is threatened by the competition.

I think some people are just skeptical of such *well* written post considering many host use these boards to promote services. Especially when you consider that even Ronnies friends come here and post reviews about his company -

I don't think this was an attack on you and I really do not see any issue other then some comments below.....

I am currently using over 20 GB/month in bandwidth and have not had my account deleted, or even heard a peep of complaint from Ronnie. This is obviously a vicious lie intended to hurt the business of the most successful webhosting company on these boards!

1) Why should he say anything about 20 GBs? He guarantees 60 GBs of use on his site.

2) How do you know it is a "vicious" lie? Seems like the pot calling the kettle black. You are upset about the promting accusations in this thread, yet you call other peoples post "vicious lies".

3) How do you define success? Care to explian why you say that AWH is the "most successful webhosting company on these boards!"?

This is highly debatable. What a host offers on the frontend, doesn't equate to a comparision in value.

Example... paying $20.00/mo more for a host that uses a better control panel, Dell servers running RAID5 on SCSI drives, etc... certainly woulb be better then one hosting on a $99.00/mo RS server with 5400 IDS drives - no RAID. I myself would choose the Dell host, because I pay for quality.

This is not a comparison between hostnexus and AWH as I have no idea what they use and didn't want to take the time to find out. I was only pointing out your flaw in comparing value.

Congrats to Ronnie and AWH for giving good service to their clients and having such happy clients that are willing to post their testimonials in WHT. It's always good to hear the positive side of the industry. :)

Alwayswebhosting.com is a great host! I was hosted w/ them for about 1 month but wasn't able to pay for the hosting anymore. Ronnie helped me cancel my account and has never given me any problems.

Hey, Don't want to interfere in this thread, just wanted to clarify: My 'friend' is a reseller (AvalancheHosting.com). I did not ask him OR ANYONE to post on the forum here, and apologize if his participation or association with me has misled you. Carry on, folks. :D (wow, I sound like chicken!)

Well we're supposed to post reviews here whether good or bad, just don't understand why people get so jumpy when we actually post a review full of praises.

Maybe some of us really have horrible experiences with other hosts, and get over-excited when we actually find a good one, and thus posting a 1000 word review that actually sounds like a glowing advertisement.

And am not even a customer of alwaysweb, though am considering to be one. =)

Gimme a break! Of course, people have every right to be suspicious when a newbie recommends a host. Why? Because it means that person is not a regular poster here and could have an alterior motive. We see it here at WHT all of the time, where someone asks about a host or someone slams a host, then a newbie comes and tries to bail them out. Do you think people here have "stupid" written on their foreheads!

So you've been launching websites for 5 years and have 25-30 email questions a day? If that's true, Ronnie has now achieved sainthood. However, you, on the other hand, are definitely abusing your host, unless you are paying them at least $500 a month, in my opinion.

Nothing against Ronnie or AlwaysHosting, but these type of testimonials remind of the ones some hosts put on their web pages. I consider a host to be worthless when they have testimonials on their site.

You say you see it here all of the time, but it doesn't happen often. In fact, most of the time, people are just getting suspicious over legitimate testimonials. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but when it does, it's usually blatantly obvious. Also, most fake testimonials are not well written.

AlwaysWebHosting.com isn't one of those unlimited disk space and bandwidth for $1 per year hosts with a crappy web site that can't spell worth a damn and come here to post fake testimonials. They have no reason to resort to tactics like this.

When someone posts a negative review, people start flaming. When someone posts a positive review, people start getting suspicious. WTF do you people want? Do you want reviews banned? :rolleyes: :mad: :angry:

I am new to this board, and I haven't posted a million times . . . nor do I plan to.

You can use my websites as my credibility . . . they have been hosted with AlwaysWebHosting.com since the company has started.

http://www.lilviv.com , http://www.livecomputing.com , http://www.image-industries.com, and the list goes on.

The people that have posted about AlwaysWebHosting.com have sites hosted with him, and that's their credibility and their right to post a review.

It should be very clear that none of the good comments about AWH are false, solicited by them, etc.

I've been through many webhosts . . . and I've finally found a home I will stay at . . . with sites that traffic collectively about 70 GB a month, a number of users, great E-Mail, FTP, SSH, and tons more . . . along with customer service that should define the industry . . . at a ridiculous price? Hell yes, I am excited . . . and would love to spread the word. I have referred many people and continue to do so.

Did Ronnie solicit these reviews? No. He's simply the best, in my opinion.

Why do the other 50 posts have to be useless?

As hosts, we're permitted to make one "advertising" post a week. Those with posting history have been contributing to the overall "web hosting talk" idea. As users, those with posting history have as well...and then their testimonials are usually better received.

It's not specific to testimonials either. Those with a posting history are usually well enough known and their opinions are respected/ignored, regardless of whether they are commenting on a provider, or the latest movie they've seen.

That little figure (post count) stands for one thing, and it's not always credibility. It is participation.

Ummm... no. I just prefer that someone to have tried the service at least 3 months (preferably 6 months) before posting a review. That only seems fair to other people who might be persuaded. So, it has nothing to do with being a newbie. I have nothing against newbies, as we were all new here once. However, when you combine the fact of the newbie status with the things he said and how he said them so gunho, when he admittedly just signed up, I think that is a bit irresponsible.

And what do you think about someone that has been in the webhosting business for 5 years, and needs to send their host 25-30 emails a day? I noticed you ignored that part.

I've been with AWH longer than that, and my comments still hold. Also, AWH made the signup process so incredibly easy and friendly . . . maybe he wanted to write a review right after that! I would have! I got personal E-Mail, immediate responses when I had dumb setup questions, etc.

So, someone has something nice to say about the host? Why does that mean you have to complain about it?

That's not what you stated in your first post:

"Of course, people have every right to be suspicious when a newbie recommends a host."

"We see it here at WHT all of the time, where someone asks about a host or someone slams a host, then a newbie comes and tries to bail them out."

And what do you think about someone that has been in the webhosting business for 5 years, and needs to send their host 25-30 emails a day? I noticed you ignored that part.

I didn't ignore that part. I just chose not to comment on it, but since you insist:

He never said that he was in the web hosting business for 5 years, nor did he say that he sends his host 25-30 e-mails a day.

I don't think I contradicted myself. Being a "newbie" does cause reasonable suspicion when recommending a host. However, just being a newbie is not a problem in and of itself. You need to combine that with the rest of the information in the post before drawing your own conclusions.

He stated that he'd been "launching" websites for 5 years, and I misread that as him being a person in the hosting business (though if he's been lauching his own websites for 5 years, I don't understand why he would ever have that many questions any day of the week). He also said 15-25 emails a day "sometimes", not 25-30 "everyday". I apologize for my errors on this part. I was definitely wrong here.

I think its time to create a new category = Testemonials" and place it under Advertising, and in this section you should be alowed to say something good or bad about host only when someone is interested = What do you think about xxx.net, are they good or bad?

Well, I'm with them too, and have nothing by praises for Ronnie's level of customer service. The servers have been up and running smoothly eversince I signed up back in mid Feb.

Guys can search for an older thread started by me about Alwayswebhosting.com as well that's pushing for them, and till today I am still sticking to those views.

Great work done, Ron! ;)

Yea, right. I'm not tring to speak badly of anyone it was just an observation as I stated before. Thanks.

If someone asks for a recommendation and people were to recommend AWH in droves that wouldn't bother me in the slightest. I'm just not fond of these "testimonials" where a newbie has "taken it upon himself" to sit in front of the computer for 10 minutes of his precious time and write a nice essay about how wonderful their host is. Thay isn't what this board is for and as someone said, it should be in a review or testimonial forum.

No, I'm not jealous Robert. There is enough business for everyone, even here in Australia. Thanks for the snipe anyway. (and the wink) ;)

Testimonial Forums Wow. Thats an excellent idea. Chicken would love the extra work. ;)


Regarding places like AWH and the old flavors of the month. It is like this. Pair for example is one of the most loved and respected host around with over 100,000 customers. Yet they never have reviews. Same with other very good, large host. However, for some reason, the flavor of the month host who has a few hundred clients (if they are lucky), will get review after review, and usually from new posters. Does this logically make sense? The answer is the someone pointed their "good" customers to the boards (which is fine I guess) or that the use false accounts or have friends write reviews (which is stupid).

It is also always amazing how the corrolation between when you first find a review on a new company and when the first few post by its owner happen. Do some searches for usersnames and post. You will see what I mean. Positive post usually start hitting right about the time the flavor of the month host' owner post his/her first "helpful" post.

Think about it logically. This is why many are skeptical. Also, many have been coming here along time. Most the time we can spot a skunk quickly. Both idealist and realist frequent these boards....

The funny thing is that in the end, it is the host that used these boards that gets nailed. Look at how many flavor of the months are out of business or get bashed every other day by their former customers. Someone who takes the time to write a positive review, will certainly take the time to write a negative.

Anyway, I have no doubt that AWH is starting out as a good company. By the sounds of it, they will continue to be.

The starter of this thread, dtz, also took the time to PM me and throw some nice insults aboiut our service. :)

Thanks! Now your comments and ads make more sense than ever. Don't try and dirty my PM box again. Nice customers you have Ronnie. :D

Thanks, I appreciate you saying so. :D

Those that are attacking this thread have only 1 motive for doing so: insecurity. If you felt your services were superior to those of AlwaysWebhosting.com you would not have to come to this thread and try to pick it apart. So far none of you "critics" have shown any proof that Ronnie's business is not the best. Badgering and nit picking does not make your business look any better, and the fact still remains that I can get more with AWH than I can with you. That's all that matters.

And for all of you complaining becuase I don't have 1124 posts like you do. Maybe your webhosting business would be as successful as Ronnie's if you didn't spend so much time posting here! I don't see in my right mind how anyone can post over 1000 times about webhosting.

Furthermore, there is nothing wrong at all with people posting praise about their favorite webhosting company, and it only goes to show how close that company must be to their customers! Does Pair network offer exclusive 1 on 1 problem solving, and do they remember your name? I don't think so.

There is nothing more to be said. Unless you can prove that AWH isn't the best webhost around, I think your wasting your breath, and our time.

Sincerely,
Ryan Park - DomesticTunerz.com

Ok, calm down everyone.

Please, at my request, let this thread die. Thank you. :D

Let me fix that - Pair.com is an excellent web hosting firm. They've set their business up for success - by offering a single, reliable platform (FreeBSD), account restrictions on users that are sensible measures designed to protect the overall integrity of their business. Contrast that approach with all these "unlimited" this and that offers.

I've had a shared and a dedicated server accounts with Pair and would not hesitate to recommend them.

What amazes me (and this isn't a comment at all on this thread) is the number of hosts aiming only for the cut-rate market. Pair shows that you can build a very large business by offering reasonably priced service offerings that are in no way the cheapest on the block.

I also have an account at Site5 and recommend them as well. Again, not the cheapest.

And I'm seriously considering co-location with Datapipe - another large reputable organization that never seems to get much press good or bad. Their colocation deals and network quality appear to be very good.

And for all of you complaining becuase I don't have 1124 posts like you do. Maybe your webhosting business would be as successful as Ronnie's if you didn't spend so much time posting here! I don't see in my right mind how anyone can post over 1000 times about webhosting.

Why don't you go play with your little toy cars. They are sure are cute. I bet you could post about those widdle little cars 1000 times.

Save your PMs to me too. I don't want to read them either.

Does Pair network offer exclusive 1 on 1 problem solving, and do they remember your name? I don't think so.

Here is another thing. Have you hosted with Pair? Just as I pointed out about your post before which got your panties in a bundle, you seem to be too passionate for a customer.

Have a good day driving......

Alright dtz, that is lashing out..
If you haven't used a host before, don't slam them. I haven't used Always Web Hosting before and won't in the future because I have my company.

From the looks of it, Ronnie is a good guy. Keeps the customers very happy, provides and awsome deal at a great price. Kudos Ronnie.

You wanted to know why its not the best.
They do not have:
24/7 tech and sales via a toll free number.

They are using:
Rackshack. The servers are not high quality at all. I'm not going to go into why, its been discussed to no end. Their network is strong, but its not the best. The best web host probably wouldn't be using cogent, even in just 25% of their network.

They don't have hands on tech's 24/7 at their servers with physical access to them. They aren't able to walk over to their server and press reboot or fix it themselves. They have to have another person do it, which from what I hear isn't the most experienced person in the world. (Reboots are easy, what if the hard drive fails). They have to go through a middle man.
Also because they don't have physical access to the servers, they can't to upgrades right away, and certain upgrades are probably not possible. They can't have a mission critical setup with backups, ect.

Also, with their current pricing plan can they be that successful in the future for growth, what if rackshack goes under, will they be screwed? Can they move to a better solution in the future? Will they be able to offer the 1 on 1 support IF they become overloaded and undermaned as they are looking for volume? Who knows, things to consider though.

What we hosts do in our free time is none of your business(WHT is a hobby of mine I like to do in my free time), I doubt anyone puts WHT before their own business. Though you, dtz, seem to be all knowing, don't take any one person you don't know on the forum for stupid.

Again, nothing against alwayswebhosting. You found your audience and are pleasing them. Kudos.

I think the name "ditz" says it all (sorry I couldn't resist) ;)

To sum it up, no one here has a problem with Always, it's ditz and his posts we have a problem with.

Hi,

Just thought I`d give my tuppence worth.

I am extremely neurotic about this bandwidth thingy. I came from a messageboard that was turfed off it`s server because of excess bandwidth and when I set up my own, I was so worried I opted for a remotely hosted one at Ezboard. Even tho it`s crap.

I then join AWH. I am hosting 2 business sites there, but they are not operational yet and won`t really use many resources. I`m not concerned about them.

My other domain is for my messageboard site. I`m very concerned about that. It`s my pride and joy. The site still loads the remote one though. However I`ve become so sick of Ezboards shoddy service (paying around $49 a month and rising), and a board that doesn`t work properly half the time, that I`ve decided to take the plunge and host on my site.

I would NEVER have considered this if I wasn`t confident in AWH. I doubt I`ll get anywhere near the 60gigs a month even when the traffic is heavy again in September, but if it does I`m pretty sure that Ronnie won`t toss me off (ooh that sounds a bit rude if you`re English :eek: ) unceremoniously. This is an ENORMOUS thing for me, and the fact that I have such confidence speaks volumes for the company.

I`ve just sent him an email requesting advice re bulletinboards. I got the reply about 10 minutes later. That has always been my experience with them. Funnily enough it came in as I was reading this thread! ;)

After an initial glitch with the server when I first joined - which was sorted very quickly - I have had no problems at all.

Now I could wait till I`ve been there a year and tell you how great they are, but why? Sure I`ve only been there about 3 months but whilst current service is no guarantee that things will be the same next year, there is no logical reason to suppose things will go downhill either. There are many out there who are desperate to find a good company. I heartily recommend this one.

No company can be perfect and technology being what it is, crap will happen from time to time in the future - of that I`ve no doubt. But I`m confident any problems will be fixed quickly and I`ll be kept informed. So, yeah I`m doing my happy dance . :D

I love this forum, it`s saved me a lot of problems with the sage advice in the past. Gave me some bloody nightmares too tho!! I`m sure all will agree that when you get a good Host you have confidence in, it makes life less stressful all round. Why make things harder on yourself by doubting the praise all the time? Sometimes things really are as good as they seem. :)

BTW can ya put a picture as a background in VBulletin?? Now I`m all confident of hosting my own board I`m good to go, and I gotta have a picture! :stickout

Way out of line. His 1124 posts carry more weight and credibility than anything you can try to prove here. It also proves that he is sincere and committed and not an over night job. If he wasn't committed to web hosting and his customers, why would he have 1124 in a web hosting forum?

I have found this host to be unresponsive (as mentioned in a other thread) and in fact, at this very moment, is not online (under AOL) for support while my current host has 3 support guys online.

Guess you get what you pay for.

One thing I learned... I never buy hosting or colo from people that plugin ads in here...

Did you find any plugs for UUnet, WorldCom, Sprint, or other major providers here.. ofcourse not. They do not need to do. They know they are good. We go to them not them to us.

From my past experience to find the host you need is something local. Sometime you have tested, someone else tested and they recommend.

This is obviously a vicious lie intended to hurt the business of the most successful webhosting company on these boards!

LOL!! :D

Do you know VO, RS, HR, etc?

What's that got to do with the topic...

Need dedicated? Seemes you dont have it...

OK, I do think dtz got a little out of hand . . . although your thread was meant to compliment AWH . . . your negative and harsh comments seem to be undermining it a bit . . . making people associate AWH with those negative comments. So, to compliment AWH . . . act in kind. :) No need to bash other hosts, everyone does business differently.

Someone mentioned about Pair Networks. I had all my sites hosted there, and it was a relief to move it over to Ronnie's host. At Pair, I was charged for each additional domain, couldn't setup individual E-Mails as I wanted, and had a ridiculous 100 MB/day bandwidth limit . . . glad to move on for a dollar more a month and no setup fees (so, in turn, cheaper) to a host that allows me everything. I am speaking as someone who has had multiple sites hosted at both hosts for long periods of time.

About bulletin boards, I asked Ronnie about that . . . I am new. He installed some freeware BB software for me and I started my own board which is going awesome! He did that for me within one day of me inquiring about what a board is and how hard it was to setup.

Also, one spoke of the downfalls of Ronnie's business . . . and this seems almost invisible to me, the end user. What I see are my websites up, in an easy to use manner, and running at ridiculous speeds and reliability with customer service so incredible, I'd recommend my Luddite Mom to host a site with them.

Cheers. :)

I think its time to create a new category = Testemonials" and place it under Advertising, and in this section you should be alowed to say something good or bad about host only when someone is interested = What do you think about xxx.net, are they good or bad?

It would be a good idea... it reminds me of Pricewatch vendors being rated on... resellerratings something site...

Before you buy you read comments and such. Also give the host an option to reply.

Sort of eBAY style hehehehe....

I have found this host to be unresponsive (as mentioned in a other thread) and in fact, at this very moment, is not online (under AOL) for support while my current host has 3 support guys online.

Geez Curtis, you hold a grudge.

I explained this in another thread -- your post on our forum was overlooked somehow (the 'view new posts' in vbulletin failed me it seems)... And I apologized for that. Review our forums, we do a pretty good job of responding to every post. (Of course, you failed to email, call, or IM us and would rather complain here... but that's your call. :D )

We're not always online on AIM, nor do we advertise to be. We're always responding to help desk and email requests though.

agree. One of my friends' host (and I manage that site fully) hosted by AWH , and we are pleased .

You are new to this forum, and the fact that you'd expect to burst onto the scene and post something and have no one question it is asking a bit much. It isn't that what you have to say is meaningless, it is that it lacks credibility. This isn't a bad thing, it is just how it is, as you are new. While it would have been nice for suspicions of your post to be kept private (via reports to moderators), your replies and reported PM's to members haven't exactly made this thread any better and there is too much to clean.
