Don;t ya hate ipowerweb?


Don't ya just hate ipowerweb (okay some jealously in that satement) they have 90,000+ cleints, that's selfish lol, I am sure most of us hosting companys here can offer the same services and even better service/support, being small companies we have better service. and these selfish buggers have 90,000! they should spread the cash a little to us? (not gonna happen)

I'm not sure I understand. You work in hosting for AOL? And when you say corporate mega-monster is that a good thing or a bad thing?

So your saying they are bad because they have a lot of customers. I'm just trying to figure out the purpose of your post.

I am not saying they are bad in the case of they suck, just airing my opinion that 90,000 customers is too much domination and they aren't *that* great.

Here's the problem, we all know that bad post draw more attention than positive ones, so when you make a post saying Don't ya hate Powerweb and then go on to list their strong points, someone may think that you are affiliated or may have something to gain.

Funny how someone who 'claims' to work for AOL has got the nerve to complain about poor service.. Or perhaps he's 'with AOL' meaning he does not work for AOL that's just what he uses for a service provider.

The web hosting market landscape will change eventually.
It's like in the old days you had lots of small grocery shop near
your house (near my house anyway), and then came the giant corporations and took the small grocery stores out of business
(well, most of them).
