Hello Jackie, welcome to WHT!
It appears to be extreme overselling. The company is selling more than they can offer. They appear to be resellers of http://www.resellerspanel.com/
I would recommend reading http://ultracheaphosts.com/

The price is so low because they are
overselling. If you don't what that is,
here's an article that explains it great.

This type of offer seems to be the way many hosts are going. It is definitely overselling, but that doesn't necessarily mean you are going to have a terrible experience with them. Do a bit more research on the host, compare it to others with similar offers, read reviews, etc.
Good luck

It is true that we oversell. However for us this business model has been very succesful. We have not had a single complaint about our overselling from a customer, and we have never had to shut down any accounts because of CPU Usage.

Overselling aside, a simple explanation is that the web hosting market is, and has been for a long while, terribly oversaturated.
In an oversatured market, price is one of the most prominent features to compete on...thus your 'silly' prices.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I suppose they are just using a Turnkey Website provided by resellerspanel.com

Usually webhosting like that is extremely lame and support sucks.

My personal experience with few hosts in early time was that lower they charge for services, least they bother to answer your support queries.
Unless you have heard alot about a company which is provide cheap but valuable hosting services... never ever think about hosting your domain on their servers.
Blessed.

I think it is unfair to make that accusation. Unless you have had experience with a certain site, you really shouldn't be making a generalization like that. I have had great support from other overselling sites (1and1) and I have poor service with other sites (Canaca). It is not a general rule.

The site's template looks as though made by a two year old. Look at the banner! Lol.
Well anyway. I think the only way to know if those hosts are good is to try them.
I used to use a similiar one to that, very cheap, fast, clustered servers and good support.

Tomorrow Hosting... You seriously need to investigate into the industry in which you located... overselling is fine its a normal business practice... however overselling to the point where your getting a 6000% profit margin, is the problem.
How can you possibly have those resources, the staffing, and the technologies to support a boost for example... say everyone on your servers decided to upload the full 15Gb... and say you only have an 80Gb harddrive... and you put 200 people on that server.. you are screwed to the point where you could be sued.
