I am assuming you are talking about www.hostingwarranty.com
It looks like a disguised affiliate referral scheme.

The site appears to be VERY new.
Google has 5 responses to the query "hostingwarranty.com", the first 2 are the site itself, the third is a digg submitted yesterday the 4th is my post above (wow google is fast) and the last is a generic list of domains.
I doubt that anyone has any actual experience with them.
Perhaps our newly registered user has some association with them?

I am really surprised at this! However, I have often heard that WHT is indexed pretty fast at google.

thanks,
yes, they are new, i checked the domain whois records, it's 6 months old.
regarding your questions, I have no association with them and I found them through google.
I don't care about them being affiliates of hosting companies (they even say they are in their faq) my concern is leaving my personal details in the site.

If you are concerned about leaving your personal details on their site, you shouldn't do that!

Well,as you said the companies 6 months old,I think you should be looking at a Company that's a bit more experience.

hosting guru, I'm not sure you got the point, they are not a hosting company.
they give a service that you sign up to any company you wish using their links and they give you a warranty of money back for the full year if you're not satisfied. they don't offer their own hosting.
