Hosting-PP.com

[MacOne]

I will try to stay unbias if at all possible for my review of this hosting "company". First the URL to this site is http://hosting-pp.com (http://www.hosting-pp.com) . When you first visit this hosting provider looks like it came from God himself. Just about everything you could possibly want/need! Like i said thats how it LOOKS. The first sign this provider will not be of the highest quality is not very obvious at all. You might notice the Flash menu bar at the top, with the links to the different parts of the site. These are premade with Dreamweaver. Now this might not seem like anything at all consider this: If a company cant even design there own layout how are they going to keep there supposedly many servers up and in tip top shape. Now onto the more gritty mishaps. This company's server(s) constantly have lag and are down at least once a week. Now while this might be a small over exaggeration it is true 90% of the time. This company started out making promises that now it can not cash, such as "unlimited free space". Now while I understand this is not humanly possible, if they like about something like this, what else will they lie about? Theres so many things wrong with this company that you have to be hosted by them before you see the depth of there inexperience and sometimes sheer stupidity in what they do. Now I hope none of you here fall into this horrible trap of hosting-pp.com as I unwittingly have. But they do have a few things going for them which will make there service get a little higher rating in my book. When the server is not down/acting up they have a very nice control panel (cpanel) and unlimited MySQL databases, along with unlimited sub-domains, and 24/7 FTP. Lets just hope these services don't go down the drain too.

Total Rating: .5/10
Quality: .5/10
Dependability: 1/10
Features Promised: 7/10
Features Actually Recieved: .1/10

If you wish to praise a web host or warn people about a bad web host you can't be anonymous. Post your own URL (webaddress), otherwise your post will be deleted.

I do not want my account to be deleted b/c currently it is my only solution, no matter how bad it might be. (I am trying to switch NOW)

I still suggest posting it. That way we can have some credibity.

One more thing, unlimited free webspace doesnt exist.

yeah, after you switched host, please come back and post more details about your experience

[MacOne]

Ok I have TEMPORARILY switched to Breeze Land, so that I can inform you of my experience. My domain, was www.UltimateSurge.com ... Now that domain is repointed towards the Breeze Land hosting. I know there is nothing such as "Free Unlimited Space". I noted that. And afterwards said, if this company can make such an unfounded promise what else will it lie about? I will answer any questions of members interested in this service, based upon my experience.

[Archbob]

Many companies make such unfound promises.

[MacOne]

Yes I know. This is a sad fact. If these companies will lie about this think about what else they will. Look at any of the reliable hosting companies, (ex: Dell) they do no such thing.

[allanh]

yeah, Hosting-Pp.com is a racist host as well:(

I won't elaborate any further, but many people on this board know about it

[KBC]

People will only say this host is good, if they're taking advantage of their free plan. :biggrin2: Considering what they offer.

I'm neutral in this situation, but my question is, how come your domain isn't listed in the bandwidth log for hosting-pp.com?

To tell the truth Robert, I am not sure. The owner was just yelling at me for wasting gigabytes of bandwith, even though I had done no such thing. Check March it should be there, I think I used a megabyte of bandwith then.
