hi all

i looking into buying these 2 web sites

http://www.abesthosting.com/

http://www.worldhostingweb.com/

these seem to be pretty cheap running of a reseller plan from their provider
i get:
The complete Ownership to the domain name WorldHostingWeb.com ,
including website design, Graphics, programming
One month free hosting, You may continue to host with us for $3.5/month after the 1st month, or you may change your hosting


how much do u reckon these sites are worth each??

and ill be going over to my own hosting unless the plan is better

Since both of these sites are just about one month old today, how is it you came upon buying them?

Those look like templating jobs, I wonder if they've got distribution and multiple use licenses. ;)

It goes over what you should look for when buying a business.

Yes, they are templates.
The image he gives for this site has "Abesthosting.com" in the header image...and just below it says "Welcome to fastprohost.com". You can bet he's reusing the same designs over and over.

If you think this is a legitimate deal and worth it, good luck. I personally would not even consider this one.

I have to agree with bear here.

The site is based off a template, the company includes no clients and you bet he will try and lock you into his reseller plans.

Try looking for some templates and reseller plans here on WHT, it may cost you a little more but you will at least then know it is unique.

They remind me of a batch of silly templates that came from the folks I go through. While I'm grateful for their gifts I, well, really haven't any need for any of them and would like to think I have better (if more simple) taste. :D I appreciate the offer of said templates (they look like TemplateMonster type stuff) but no templates for me thanks.

I very STRONGLY second Bear's advice.

Well it all just depends on the price. Neither name is that great, nor are either site, but both are okay, and both designs are fine. If content is exact then Se's might frown on them a bit. For I would ask do you have a name you like better? Can you find a template or can you make your own site. For me I have tons of templates and can find hosting names I like better. If the sites are cheap and get traffic it all then I would buy them. Lot of things to consider. I mean for about $35 you could likely find a good name and someone to slap a decent template on it for you.....
