It looks and sounds pretty good. What do you guys think? I'm trying to find a good palce to host my Bisneusses Website. I just think that perhpas 1.5GB is a bit overkill.

Well, it isn't 'unlimited', however that is dirt cheap. Would you mine posting who is offering this?

If it sounds too good to be true it probably is.....you get what you paid for.... the first host I signed up with was like that and the site was down at least twice a day... I was monitoring it with something and I get at least one email a day saying it was down and the monitoring service only checked every hour (cause it was free)!!!! Also the support sucked... i would get emails saying "we do not provide support for your problem" when I emailed them asking why my server was down!!!!! :mad:

I agree with all of the above...it's too good to be true. And what would the point of unlimited email catchall addresses be? Wouldn't one suffice? And what is "personal support"? I do believe I detect the odour of rancid fish.

it does look too good to be true, but what the hell, you might as well try it out and tell us :)
