Gimme the dirt on ...


NEXPOINT

I'm very close to get there Cobalt Linux Special (http://www.ntidesign.com/cobaltspecial.php) and had some email conversation with them.

I'm not to worried about the bandwidth, cause I don't think I will have exessive loading.

But now I'm lookig for people that can tell me what's not on there site

Bobo , I insist you took a look at the following before you join another host

www.affordablehost.com
www.tera-byte.com
www.aletiahosting.com
www.nuke.to
www.discount-hosting.com

You can see the post on "hosts without cpanel " too

NexPoint

I signed up with them a few weeks ago, all has been well. This is my first host and domain, so I don't know if it was registered fast, but it was less than a day.

Beware, they advertise "Unmetered Bandwidth". Sometimes, this can mean that if you go over a 2 GIG Of transfer limit, then you get cut off. They are currently on my blacklist.

But the one good thing I will say abou them is that on my site, the person who recommended them gave their company a 10/10 rating for overall customer experience. But, we had another surfer, who rated them a 3/10, so you really will have to make a tough decision.

As I've stated, I'm not that much afraight of the bandwidth, but I will make sure that I will have a quote from them giving a (any) number. Also I will want a statement that there will be a warning first before they will charge my CC.

There offer has everything I want. They 500Mb I will need to "test" sites. Sure I can test my sites locally (PHP and SQL and stuff) but not loading of sites. That's why I will need the space.

I think there offer is a very good one. WZ offered a cheap service with a good package, but they blew it. So before I switch (and yes, I did look around very good and long this time) I really want to know what I'm going to start business with.

Please, if you know ANYTHING I should know about them (meaning, links to others are appreciated and will be compared) will be very much helpfull, ecspecially since I want to move by the end of next week.

Thanks again.

They are very reliable. They've been up for a few years, just no CGI.
