service varies from host to host but i can offer you some good information for finding a better server.
1. pay a little more, dont try to save that extra 1 or 2$ a month. if your paying less then 5$ a month your on a shit oversold server. (i can back this up if you want)
2. Any host with a .info domain or .info NS DONT GO WITH :p .info's are cheap and crappy extensions most can either be gotten for free or something like 1.99$ a year. The thing I dont like about them is it shows they are cheap and like to scrape pennies, i dont want a server from someone who wont shell out 5 more bucks a year for a decent .com domain. In my eyes if your a penny pincher for something like that, then you probably are selling me a server off you 5.99$ a month unlimited reseller plan lmao which brings me to my next reason.
3. Dont, and I'll repeat that. DONT fall for UNLIMITED this or UNMETERED that lol theres no such thing. Truly and undoubtingly there is absolutely NO SUCH THING as ulimited hd space, or id be able to go out to the local computer parts store and pick up a Western Digital Billion GB HD for my desktop. On the same note, theres no such thing as UNMETERED bandwitdth. What you can bring from a host that sells an unlimited or unmetered package is that they definitley oversell theyre servers and that you should steer clear from them.
4. Dont believe on-site testimonials, WE WRITE THEM OURSELVES.
5. Dont believe everything you read on the net as straight fact these are my opinions and are not those of wjunction or anyone else. Ive followed those statements and have never had any issues with servers or hosting packages. I believe if you follow them you too will avoid many issues such as downtime or on-server problems that everyone is always complaining about.
hope that helps
I just felt like writing for some reason, copy pasted made it a thread in hosting discussion :p
cheers
