		<description>Nice article, couldn&#039;t agree more. I run a web hosting service. My thoughts:

Yes, choose a small plan and grow into a bigger one if needed. Most customers *vastly* overestimate the amount of disk space/transfer they need. Don&#039;t waste money initially on features you don&#039;t need now (or, perhaps, ever).

Yes, don&#039;t pay for a very long term plan. One year should certainly be the longest. And then, only if the one year rate is so much lower (per month-wise) then the monthly rate such that it pays off in 6 months or less.

Yes, if you want to be involved in hosting multiple sites, go with a reseller plan. If you&#039;re just an &quot;end customer&quot; who wants one site, of course the reseller option isn&#039;t important to you (and will just be more expensive and confusing).

		<description>I like how you educate your clients on choosing their appropriate hosting requirements. That is genuine customer service and that will get you a lot of buzz.

My first hosting package was around $20 per year but right now I use WestHost which I already paid for 2 years. So far I&#039;m happy with their services. Great support.

Nice points you outlined here. Thank you for this.</description>

		<description>I got scammed by a PAY HOST companie recently they offered me a 14 day free trial. I cancelled on 13th day but they took £200 out of my account.

I was also a member of another pay hosting company. I paid £5 a month for great quality hosting.

I am now using 000webhost free hosting and it is just as good.</description>

		<description>Hello. I installed the contact form. You can also contact me on dojodesign (at) gmail (dot) com.

For the hosting I can offer you 2 good plans: for 5 lei or 10 lei / month. On Romanian or American servers, you choose.

PS: Yeah, I&#039;m the one on the radio. Unpleasant, I know :D</description>
