    Thumbs up HTTPMe

    I recently ordered Plan 3 with HTTPme and I'm extremely impressed with their service. Their network is extremely fast, and the support is awesome! I could not have imagined picking a better host. If your looking for a host, and want real service, I'd reccomend HTTPme.

    Just wondering, but how long have you been with them?

    Glad to hear of your good experience, and I think that we can add that one to the growing list.

    you will be very happy there, very knowledgable, fast support and great servers, i was there for 10 months with hardly any problems, the great thing about them is the communication, either good or bad, you know what is going on, if one of my forums hadnt outgrown a shared enviroment i would have never left and i have this feeling i'll go back again

    It's good to see positive reviews for a change here on WHT. Thanks for sharing.

    I see positive reviews for HTTPme all the time (among those of some other quality hosts). It is the kiddie hosts and the customers that are angry with their kiddie host because they didn't provide the world for a buck that you see frequently bad-mouthing the industry. This is MY opinion anyways.

    At any rate, hats off to Bob and crew at HTTPme

    Agreed. Almost every review I have seen on HTTPMe has been positive.

    They are probably a company you can trust

    I wasn't referring to HTTPMe's reviews. Like you, I've never seen a negative review on HTTPMe. I was referring to reviews in general, day after day, I see an influx of negative reviews, when I see a positive one, I like to comment on it and thank the users for sharing their review. It always seems like people want to review negatively when something bad happens, but never want to give a positive review when they've had something good happen.

    Hi babylonian,

    HTTPMe is far, far from being a rip off.

    Care to indulge on your comment?

    Actually, that said, i would urge you to indulge on your comment, to give it some kind of credibility, or else you're just spouting, which can lead to that notice that so politely says "thank you for using webhostingtalk.com.. you are the weakest link. Goodbye".

    Seriously bud, either back up your claim, or retract it

    Ok, no problem..

    But on the actual point you make, httpME aren't double price all the others. A web hosting plan is not merely just bandwidth, disk space allocation. You've got to take into account that service come's at a price.

    I've never hosted with httpME, obviously, so I cannot comment on their service, but I do offer the advice of "look beyond mere allocations", when making any judgement on any hosting provider

    Well then, you've got a lot to learn, babylonian about how to ask a question.

    isnt this host a rip off ??? is hardly the proper way to ask about the merits of a host. It's inflammatory at best, and you're setting yourself up to be flamed right out the door.

    Learn a little discretion and protocol, why don't you...

    Pricing is a matter of perception, for each person. Some folks look at our pricing and think we're very expensive, and yet other folks think we're cheap. I get sales emails all the time from folks asking if we can stay in business with such cheap hosting.

    They're paying a heap of $$$$ to host their ~20 domains [etc] with their current hosts, whereas with us, they can bundle all those 20 domains in the 1 account, and save a heap of $$$. They're the ones who can't believe how cheap our plans are, because from their persepctive, our plans are very cheap.

    We could discuss this all day, but any host out there who is competing on price, has a hard road ahead. Can't say how I feel when folks say our pricing is dear, compared to your usual WHT pricing.

    These prices a very reasonable. Step back and think about it.

    Quality servers, quality network - real support staff, real employees (not a kid running a business in the few spare hours he has after school). How much profit margin do you think a host would make from selling these stupidly priced plans we often see on WHT.

    One of the reasons I don't even bother advertising on forums like WHT.

    Seriously, people get so sucked in by big numbers - when their site probably doesn't even use more that a gig or traffic a month.

    I think httpME are one of the better and more realistic priced hosts who are popular on this forum. Most of the WHT audience have been 'sucked in' by the cheap fly-by-night/kiddie hosts who oversell stupid ammounts of bandwidth and probably won't be in existance within a year.

    You can quite easily pay $100/month over here for 50mb space and not even a gig of bandwidth from many of the major "hosting companies". WHT is really the bottom end of the hosting market (in general).

    I'd rather pay a few extra dollars, for a service I can trust and enjoy. Some people spend a lower price, and then they end up with horrible service. There are horrible expensive hosts, as there are horrible cheap hosts. But, when it comes down to HTTPme, their service is so great, that their actually the ones getting ripped off. If they were to raise their price tommarrow, I'd remain with them.
