What do you guys think of them any good. Their plan seems to be too good to be true. Thanks.

I've not heard of them until now, so I am not sure how good they are. Their pricing looks really good. Keep in mind the old Trojan saying: beware of hosts advertising unlimited anything :).

This disclaimer is kind of disconcerting:

* Data transfer and hits are unlimited until your web site uses 95% of the server's resources. When this occur, you will have to upgrade to a dedicated server.

I can't speak for all hosts, but, in my opinion, allowing 1 site to use 95% of a server's resources is ludicrous. The rest of the sites hosted on that server would see such a performance hit that they would all quit.

I am in the process of moving one of my sites there. Their tech support have been superb so far, usually answering emails/making changes within 10 minutes. The site is not live yet so I can't comment on the speed yet.

I'll keep you guys posted ;)

This speaks for itself. I wish them luck trying to convince people that the 'extra 5%' is gonna cost them $300 more a month over what they were paying, heh.

Someone wasn't thinking clearly...
