[Review] Hawkhost.com Rocks!
Yes they do. Been with them for 8 months now (can PM the mods the site details). I host two sites (main one for a friend, secondary my own personal site
While the sites are pretty much dormant (think only a thousand or so page visits a month), BUT i love them for the following reasons:
a. SUPER SUPER SUPER customer service. Honestly, I can't imagine anyone hosting thousands of websites and providing such quality and quick support. The slowest ticket replied within 15 mins (USA daytime) and around 45 mins (USA night time). And with a REAL solution. No "we have forwarded to the concerned department and please wait X business days" nonsense.
Tony, if you're reading this - you rock!
b. CHEAP. I mean, I'm not using much - and I'm not paying much either! Just about 3USD. Worth every penny.
c. Reliable. It works. Pretty much all the time. There was one time the site got overrun with malware (some junk PHP code that i cleaned out) - but that was the same time, I was using all kinda public computers for uploading stuff. Back on our regular laptops, no breaches since then or before that.
d. Competent and patient. Quick setup of every request I've given. Taken the pains to reply to sometimes tangential queries with insights as well!
I'd be stumped if you would ask me of ONE shortcoming of hawkhost.
No, I have no commercial affiliation - just one of their fanboys really

Aye Aye saar!
Done that.
Kindly note - I'm an Indian and Tony's based in the USA - so ain't no fake here. Just that I feel compelled to hand the kudos where its due.
As an aside, need compelled to mention www.cosmolabs.com - they were the original guys we used (friendly neighborhood guy) - overcharged, was registering through net4domains.in while selling dreamhost stuff at his own rates and confused customer service. Shifted over end of Jan and couldn't be happier.
However, for dogged persistence, he'd give King Bruce's spider and Sindbad's old man a run for their money!

So is hawkhost.com a reseller? (who?) If not, can we get some server/data center specs? Are there any specials for 1 year of hosting? Thanks for the info!

The team over at HawkHost always do an amazing job. I submitted a ticket their in the past and it was answered within 10 minutes and i was not even a customer.
So congratulations to both parties and what a great in-sight and detailed review. These are definitely always welcome here.

Good to hear our hosting is working out for you.
I agree I do rock
We like fan boys
We do not resell someone else's services. The closest thing to that is our use of Softlayer (they're awesome) and their 3 datacenters.
We have one but no $100 payouts like some large hosts
Probably one of our Dual Xeon 5520 servers so that's 8 cores + 8 virtual due to hyper threading. Still a monster of a machine for shared hosting█ Tony B. - Chief Executive Officer
