    Free trials used to work great. In fact, it is how I got the majority of my customers years ago. Now, there are too many host-jumpers and fraudsters for it to be as effective. Don't get me wrong,...

    We need an industry solution for this type of problem. Otherwise, your nightmare will eventually become someone else's nightmare. This is just the type of situation that could be helped with...

    Does no one here have a family or friends? I mean, it sounds nice and all, but is it worth uprooting your family and leaving your friends behind?

    And what about internet access? Some of these...

    starting out, probably 100 or more hours per week. Now, it varies. On a lazy day, maybe 3 hours, just to keep up on tickets and do the minimum of keeping on top of things. During busy times it can...

    There is no way to truly verify either side's claims in most cases. However, as long as both parties are allowed to dispute the other side of the story, a host would be able to read the whole case...

    I would be happy to be a customer if you could get the various kinks worked out. That will be a challenge, though, especially the legal aspect.

    This has not been my experience with The Planet. I have a few servers with them and have been a very good customer, I think. They changed the renewal date without any notification and then refused...

    This is a good point. I guess every hosting business has its own model, and this is undoubtedly true for most.

    I could not agree more. Most hosts do keep backups in separate locations, but sometimes backups can be partially corrupted and you won't know this until you go to restore them. (its rare, but it...

    I agree. I think as long as you are courteous and professional when you cancel most companies would work with you. I think policies are there as a guideline to protect the host from fraudsters and...

    MerchantFocus has lower rates than PayQuake. MF includes Authorize.Net and has been around a while, so I would highly recommend them.

    Why would you refund their hosting? They signed up for it, they didn't cancel, they didn't even have the courtesy to answer your correspondence. That is just wrong.

    They owe you for the...

    I would certainly not disagree with your policies on this. In fact, I used to deal with these situations in the same way. My only reason for being more lenient is that the end users are the ones...

    I never suspend resold accounts unless there is absolutely no other option, because it is not their fault. I suspend only the reseller's primary account if that is what it takes to get their...

    Yeah, I would suggest getting a shared account with cPanel. cPanel makes it super easy to transfer between servers, which means you could easily switch from shared to vps or semi-dedicated any time...

    In this case (for the OP), I would have to agree with you. However, the majority of web sites will never need to burst beyond the limitations of 1 - 2 servers, so it really comes down to the needs...

    I would just like to point out that the kid who made those allegations against MJ later felt guilty, came clean, and admitted that he made all of it up. Is it so hard to believe that his parents saw...

    If you end up needing something more powerful than shared (which I doubt) you can upgrade to semi-dedicated. Semi-dedicated is basicly just shared hosting but with fewer accounts per server and more...

    I have heard the opposite.

    Either way, I would worry less about the price, and more about the quality. Also, most sites use less than 1 GB, so I would not let high amounts of disk space be a...

    Downloading of files does not use much cpu. 150 users on a vbulletin forum, however, can use a lot of cpu.
