Hi everyone,

I'm going to upgrade my hosting service so it can support many languages.. Until now i'm confused about the new template .. so i want to ask you to choose with me from those three templates, which one, is the better !

You should have made this a vote thread :P

Anyhow, just off of about 5 seconds review on each (thats usually about how long you have before someone makes a decision on your site).. I would suggest the second link provided.. the 451.html.

I would definitely remove those cheesy (goofy) stock photos, and obtain some quality images.

Have fun WebHost911!

I like number 2 the best but I know of 4 other hosts that use it. Overall it would be better to get a custom made template but for now number 2 would work.

You might be better finding a private designer. Those look too 'generic' to me, however that's just me. :P

Template monster is not bad... it can be ok, however it takes a lot of work.
Here is the one we used:

2 is OK, but 3 might be good too.

Some of those templates are $1,500+ and look like junk! I would certainly not buy a pre-made template if you have the money to get one designed!

Yes, that is a reasonable point. It may be worth looking into. I did not even look at the pricing on the templates.

I would chose number 3 because the visitor sees the prices off the bat and can make an informed decision if he wanted an affordable host. On the negative, if your prices are too high, you will see a lot of visitors exiting on the main screen :)

Not at over $2000! Jesus I hope people arent actually paying these for not even that great templates!

That's ok, though a bit text crazy.

I was thinking the same thing, anyways don't buy a pre-made piece of garbage when you can spend a few more bucks and get it privately done.

I wouldn't buy a pre-made template and would look to get a design done privately.

Ya if you insist on choosing a template, do the second one (451). It is simple and not overloaded with information. The 3rd template looks nice but more like your trying to sell an edgy/new product (not a professional service).

Personally I agree with all who say "custom design" is the way to go! Do not use templates unless you want people to think your nothing special compared to the rest.

You know what i think ? I simply think that you want reach 10 posts fastly :D

You did not even see the second page where there is the custome design done from a hired designer ;) The pre-made template idea was left from about 10 days earlier than today :D

Thank you :)

Can anyone tell me which is the most used screen resolution ?

If you are designing, you should make it for 800x600 so it will be able to show in all monitors

Then again if your designer can work with CMS, and use a fluid page then the user can set it themselves.

my 02 cents worth.

I think none of these. You should hire a web design company for creating unique layout template instead of buying them from Template Monster

If you can't found someone, run to us. We can do it for you

Try design your own or hire a designer. These look very same old same old.

I i were to choose I would rule out number 2. 1 and 3 are best!

Well no-one here seems to like 90s templates, me included.

The price you pay for a good design far outweighs the business you lose by having an old template design. It's just not a good look.
