Avoid the 'Unlimited Bandwidth Web Hosting' Scam
Quote:The unlimited bandwidth controversy

For some time now a lot of hosting companies are supposedly providing "unlimited bandwidth" for their web hosting packages.

Its absolutely true, you can have unlimited bandwidth. However, you will need an unlimited amount of money by your side! Jokes apart, if you ever come across such a host it would be best to turn around and run back the way you came from.

Just think, if you can get unlimited bandwidth for $25-30 a month then why aren't big companies like Sun, Microsoft etc. not hosted there? In fact, why isn't everyone hosted there? ...

There are a lot of ways you can be duped by these unlimited hosts; here are just a few of them:

The secret of unlimited is actually buried in the Terms of Service by the host. Do not be surprised to find that unlimited = 15 GB...

In life its a universal truth that you always get what you pay for, and its no different for web hosting.

Re: Avoid the 'Unlimited Bandwidth Web Hosting' Scam
I enjoyed all the typos in the article  :twistedevil: (but I do agree with the writer that "unlimited bandwidth" is basically a scam)
"Well, Jay was so giddy that someone named Jay was involved with this site we posted our first non-eBay listing in 3 years here at Lunarbid (we tried two items at Yahoo once upon a time, they bombed)" -Marie posting in a LunarBid thread at OTWA in 2005 wins the award for 'most moronic reason ever given for choosing a venue"

"thanks twat u must have nothing better 2 do. do u talk to all your members like that. will not be recomending your site.
best way to put it is TULIPTOOLS.COM IS REALLY SHIT. DONT JOIN." -pubescent owner of rinky dink off2auction.com in 2011
