Many other web hosts will advertise some kind of promotion but in the end, they will charge you for 2 or 3 years of hosting. That means you have to pay more in total for the first time. This promotion from Pronethosting is different and you do pay only for one (1) year. If you think at a later time, your online business is not going as well as you like, just don’t continue into the next year.

Here is the summary of what kind of bargain you are looking at, just for being a visitor of bargainfinder2u.org:

Linux Shared Web Hosting

Basic Plan usually $4.95/month ($70.40 saving)

Any Pronet hosting review will say they are a reliable web host and all their plans come with money-back guarantee so you have little to worry about.

The savings calculated above by bargainfinder2u.com/deals assumes that you are using an existing domain, and you update your own nameservers at your domain registrar. If you need a new domain registered at Pronethosting, this promotion will not give you the free-domain so it will cost you slightly more than $10 for each new domain. If you want to save on domains too, go to one of the best domain registration services and register your domain at Godaddy or the other cheaper registrars.

Tips: Since Pronet hosting is giving away hosting accounts at such a crazy price, you should avoid using their “unlimited” disk space and bandwidth for other purposes such as backing up files on your desktop or archiving unrelated files. They may be quick to detect these and will not be happy about any abuse of their unlimited plans. You can use one of the best online backup services such as Mozy for backup or archives.

I am thinking if a few things can be fixed so the theme can be reflecting changes by Wordpress 2.7, this would be a perfect theme 3-column blue layout template. Things that can be changed includes:

• threading for comments which will make this theme look so much better.
• sticky post can be highlighted at the top of the page

If anybody has seen an PFO Stripes theme for Wordpress 2.7 or better yet a downloadable one, please let me know.

I am not sure to laugh or to be sad but it definitely turned me off from getting any deal from this company. This is what they have written on their Delivery and Orders page:

NOTE: Any cancellation, refund or exchange cases where the customer is rude to staff, abuses them or threatens, will be overseen by a company executive, cancelled and ignored. All rights of cancellation, refund and/or exchange will no longer apply ie. a refund will no longer be made and emails will be disregarded. No item will be able to be returned and the current order status will proceed as originally planned. GC’s PC’s strongly objects to customers who are rude and does not tolerate any of the stated above. GC’s PC’s will act against these issues with all its power to ensure the well-being of staff and our customers.

Most probably that segment may have been deleted when you read, but we got a screenshot of it just so we can share the horror or laugh at it.

Luckily, if you are in the US, there are still some cellphone stores such as CellphoneShop and Cellular Blowout that are reliable and still listen to customers. Use coupon code:freeship during checkout at cellphoneshop and get free shipping on your orders.

Stories like below may make you think twice to signup with Hostgator:

“i left GODADDY and went to HG… 3 months and my site was never up!”

“My saga with them began when they took down one of my websites I had hosted with them back in November 2006 without notice because they claimed my site used 11% of the CPU. ”

“I gave up on Hostgator a while ago, and I thought I’d cancelled my account until I noticed they were still charging me… “

If you go through each of Googles result pages, it seems there are thousands of unsatisfied customers who have been through some sticky situation with Hostgator. If you search for the keywords “Hostgator sucks”, you see that there are more than 28,000 results by Google. That is a lot of bad things said about one hosting (assuming all those result pages talks about why this hosting provider really sucked). There may be more result pages (more than 50,000) when you search for “Hostgator scam”. Should these hate or complaint sites worry you after you have read so many positive reviews? Should hate sites like hostgator-sucks.com and hostgator-scam.com (these sites may have been taken down due to some legal actions) make you change your mind?

Think again. Do not dismiss the fact that Hostgator is one of the better known web hosts in the industry. You have read the reviews.

So among the millions of satisfied clients, surely they will be some who disagree. Let us look at the numbers:

From the above number, only 1 out 100 pages about Hostgator hates the hosting. This is not so bad considering other hostings also have similar or worst ratio. The hate pages is negligible if we look at the numbers above.
