Hosting Hoax

When using different hosters it is important to STAY AWAY and run away from those that claim unlimited {bandwidth, storage, domains} they might be crooks that take your money and later shut you down.

Peole who want to maintain their website should fully understand how the game is played. Controversial content will often get you banned from a blog or kicked off a web hosters web farm.

Some of the criteria they use is strange and may seem arcane. Read the TOS or terms of service to find out what is allowed. Sadly, you may find that videos are not allowed on a video hosting site, or that forums and chat rooms are not allowed on a social site. Therefore it is important to understand what you can do.

Often cheap web hosters will have cut rate low ball machines that do not even meet the minimum server requirements and in many cases both power and speed of the server is not sufficient to run your site, but that will not stop them from charging you.
