    Magmahost.com - Review

    I have been with magmahost.com for a little over a week now, and I thought I would post a quick review of my experience so far.

    I'm using there Start-UP shared hosting plan for $10 a year. I have a very simple script that I needed a UK location for, and the 8 GB of disk space and 40 GB of bandwidth is way more then I needed.

    Order process was real simple and smooth, got instant setup, had one small problem my account was setup on the US server when I needed the UK one. No big deal a quick support ticket and that was fixed.

    The network is solid, I can get about 10 Mbps download in south florida from it on my 12 Mbps connection. No complaints there.

    Server uptime is great, today there was a small issue but was fixed real fast.

    Support is excellent, Andy is great and fixes things real fast. Had a issue today where my script wasn't connecting to my remote DB server, and he took care of it right away had it fixed working again.

    So far they get a 11 out of 10 in my book.

    I'll second your positive review of Magmahost's shared hosting plans. I've been with them for a couple of months now and have had 100% uptime as well as instant support through their support ticket system. I'd highly recommend them as well.

    I have heard some good things about them, Though they have not been in the public eye that long I would believe. Though it does look as if they have been around since 2007

    Been around since 2007 according to their site. If they made it past 1 year, they qualify for the survivor title.

    Thumbs up

    Since the first time I found this hosting company, I believe they are one of good, professional and cheap web hosting company I ever found so far. If you want to host your website, I recommended MagmaHost.com. It's fast and have good support so far. Thank you and keep on that way, Andy....

    This is scam, their email does not exist, and nobody will reply you

    This is scam, I purchased the hosting yesterday night, till now I did not get any email from them, I checked both INBOX and SPAM folder, only 2CO send me the receipt for receiving my credit card payment.

    I tried to contact their online support, nobody online, so I submit the ticket, nobody replied, and I even can not find it through my client area.

    I dropped email to their sales and billing address, and it shows the email does not exist. I do not know how to contact them at all.

    DO NOT TRY IT, YOU WILL DONATE 10USD FOR NONSENSE

    I never experience such hosting before

    Wow. To be honest, this has been my first time to actually read a positive review on Magmahost. I kept seeing scam complaints about them. Now I'm not sure what to believe.

    But anyway, glad everything's working fine for you.
