Web Hosting Pad
May 16, 2008
Reviewer: Horace D.
I've now been with webhostingpad for about 5 months now and I wanted to give others my experience.
So far I couldn't be happier, I left that awful company Startlogic and so far I couldn't be happier.
They helped me from day 1, my account was setup within 1 hr and I contact their DNS department to get my domain transferred. They handled everything for me and my site was transferred in 1 week and I've been running my site without any problems.
After leaving a company that never responds, it's finally good to find a company that is responsive and has great service....

Their support is sloooooow. Minimum 2 days on any support ticket and they're not very friendly.
Without telling me they switched my site from PHP 5 to PHP 4.4.7. Some of my scripts stopped working and I spent days trying to figure out what was wrong until I realized I was on PHP 4.4.7 instead of PHP 5 which I had just switched to 3 months ago. ...

Reviewer: Pam H.
I am a web developer (since 1987) and a recent client uses this service. That will soon be corrected. There isn't enough space to list how exceptionally bad this host is, from mechanics to customer service to overselling. If you're looking for a good website host, keep looking. Stay far away from Lunarpages....
Yahoo Hosting
May 15, 2008
Reviewer: Web/PHP Developer
Yahoo is fine for beginners, but:
* Tech support is awful. The support people appear to know NOTHING of their service. Every problem is handed of as "not our problem". Customer support in general is poor.
2. The site is frequently extremely slow (althought not technically "down").
3. There are many Yahoo-specific quirks to work around when writing PHP code.
4. Yahoo gets you in with a low price, but then ratchets it up.
I have not used other services, but there has to be a better choice than this.

Bluehost
May 14, 2008
Reviewer: Alejandro Andrade
I had a Web in bluehost, and suddenly we had problems, a guy of tech support said that my server had a problem with the cpu exceded the cuota, other one said me that we had too many connections to the web, and another one said that possibly we were hacked.
And the problem was happening every day....
PowWeb
May 14, 2008
Reviewer: Jack Slipper
I've been with Powweb since 2005. Until a year or so ago they were good and efficient. Since then this outfit has been unreliable and unresponsive. My site, on which there have been no real changes, now takes ages to load. The Powweb website itself often takes ages to load too, and its OPS is frequently flakey and un-logonable. Forget their Live Email Help. You pose an issue, and quick as a flash (only thing they are quick at) a pro-forma is presented, and before you can write any reply, they end the chat. This has happened three times in the last two weeks.
Powweb is now the pits and I always recommend keeping well clear. As you might imagine, I am now looking for a new web host, even though I've got 12 months to run. I'm prepared to lose the money to rid myself of this incompetent bunch of cowboys.

Bluehost
May 14, 2008
Reviewer: Jim Ekleberry
I signed up for a new hosting account with BlueHost a month ago and have just submitted my request to cancel.
Every night my server is under high load as reported by BlueHost's server status page. When requesting a page from my site, which isn't taking any traffic at the moment, takes 90 - 100 seconds to load. It has been this way every night for the past month, which is why I have moved to a new host and canceled my account with BlueHost.

Reviewer: David
The hosting is fine, but the customer service is horrible. They charged my credit card after I told them to cancel the account and won't refund it. Now I have to issue a chargeback to get a refund. Many better choices out there....
Web Hosting Pad
May 13, 2008
Reviewer: Anonymous
This has been the worst experience ever. My site is down everyday for at least an hour and it's not even a production site yet. Pages take forever to load and the servers slow down throughout the day.
The customer service is quick to respond but they never answer my questions and avoid them. I'm trying to get a refund out of them but most likely won't. They falsely advertise about their 99.9% uptime. What's the point of having a site if you can't count on it being up. Don't fall for these reviews like I did....
