    Thumbs up 3 Year Review

    Hello All,
    As many are aware, one thing that this forum is famous for is the reviews. People rarely take the time to write out a long winded review of WebHostingTalk.com .Please excuse me if this sounds like a hosting company review (it was intentional). Its been slightly over 3 years since I have been with them and I am planning to renew my account for several years to come.

    WebHostingTalk's signup process is simple, well laid out ans intuitive. It has been several years since I signed up but still remember the process. My account was activated quickly and I was greeted with a welcome letter and a link to an FAQ. Overall I give the signup process a 9/10

    Getting Started with WebHostingTalk.com was not the easiest process. It can sometimes be hard to assimilate with the seasoned experts on WHT. It can be intimidating. I got a slow start but was able to successfully post an introduction thread and slowly started to post questions and answers in the reseller section. Overall I give the assimilation process a 6/10.

    The navigation of WebHostingTalk.com was well thought out and makes sense. I like the clean layout that is free of overly intrusive signatures (some forums allow banner ads in signatures which is annoying, you have seen these before). Everything is tasteful and welcoming. This clean layout also extends to the offers section, I cant stand how some forums allow users to use a screenshot of their plan section in lieu of a properly worded offer. I give this a 10/10

    The WebHostingTalk culture is amazing, it is rare to see a forum that has an established culture like this. Members are naturally respectful to each other. I give this a 10/10

    WebHostingTalk has an amazing set of support staff members, even a real Bear and Mouse . The staff is very responsive and is often quick to act on disruptive members and spam posts. I have seen spam posts removed within 3 minutes. All of the staff members also have their own unique personality and are all generally easy to get along with. I also had the pleasure of meeting 2 staff members in person (1 community leader SoftWareReview and 1 Community Liaison CD_Burnt). Both of them were are professional and fun. If I had to give any negative feedback about the staff is there are some complaints in regards to some ticket response times for things like namechanges and general inquiries. I give this a 8/10

    Last month WebHostingTalk decided to reach out to a few members to solicit real feedback on how they can improve. I was lucky enough to be a part of this. I can confirm that WebHostingTalk is listening to its members and is working on improving the services to meet the needs and desires of the end users (thats us). This is nearly unheard of with online communities. I give this a 15/10.

    I have already reported my URL to the Moderators for verification per the WHT Rules http://www.webhostingtalk.com/member.php?u=252248 .

    If you are a member of another forum and looking to switch or join a new forum, WHT is the one for you.

    Hello,
    I do understand it can be hard to break the ice. The trick is to jump into the middle of the action. You may get hit with a few bullets but ultimately will come out at the end stronger

    When I saw the subject first, I thought of clicking "report link" to report the thread to moderators to move this thread to correct forum

    Loved reading the reviews.

    A very good review.... Most of the points stated there goes with my experience too... Like the account opening with WHT was like a cakewalk.. very simple, clear and easy.... Their support staff and moderators are one of the best in this industry....

    I really love WHT a lot....am getting addicted to this... and above all the site / forum is very informative....

    Oh boy, you are hard to keep tabs with (WHT) needs a post count donation just like Keith advised in another thread, I could have 20,000 posts by now.
