Anyone use Hosturbo?

[DroidCollector]

jiminsd recommended them and they look alright,and around what I would want to pay?Anyone have anything good or bad to say about them or why I should or shouldn't go with them?Or does anyone else have them as a host?

Actually, I have not used them. They seem to be fairly new. What I have been able to put together is that their servers seem to be with BurstNET in PA, the company is in India and there is a lot of chatter going on about them at WebHostingTalk.

I'm looking at them because their price is nice, the server seems solid (been checking them) and they are offering something that makes some sense (not the unlimited stuff for $15).

I think I'm going to give their June special a try.

Right, same here.I decided to head on over to the other forum and see what was happening and get some info.
Aside from that I didn't see where though, on their site that it said anything about where they were located or where their servers were.I must have missed that.Also on the other board this was posted by a member:

They're new (like within the last month, according to a WHOIS), which is probably why
you're not getting a response. If they have what you want, and have responded to inquiries you've sent in a timely manner, that's generally a good sign. I'm a little currious
why the site hosturbo.com says they've been around since December 2000 but the
domain WHOIS shows registration as May 2001. Perhaps they started as a different
company? In any case, that's something you might want to check..

So, hopefully it's nothing to worry about.I guess all we can do is dive in a try it right?I mean I can't afford that much either,well, as another member over their posted,"anyone who spends less than $5.00 per month on web hosting is a cheap --- tightwad" and should spend more on webspace..Some way of thinking huh?Anyway, whats $20.00?If it's that bad, I guess we can always dump em..
