PLEASE HELP! looking for a good web host for my new site

PLEASE HELP! looking for a good web host for my new site

alt.ascii-art · 2 messages · 23 Nov 2000 - 24 Nov 2000
Hopefully someone can help me with this:

I have just finished developing a new website, and I wondered if someone could 
recommend a good host for the site that they have had success with.  There are 
so many web hosts out there, and I know how easy it is to get ripped off by a 
fly-by-night company.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,

Mike

Mike,

I highly recommend LFC Hosting, the host of my website for the past 8 months.  
I have been extremely satisfied with their service.

I have been with quite a few other hosts, most of which took several days to 
answer my e-mails and went down several times a month.  None of the hosts that 
I have been with have come close to what my current host (LFC) provides when 
it comes to customer service (their live support chat is awesome), reliability,
automation, advanced features and capabilities (like their control panel, 
which is just amazing), e-commerce support, and highly competitive plans.

Anyway, I received an e-mail from them several weeks ago saying they will pay 
you $100 USD immediately just for switching your site to their service, which 
means you would be paying next to nothing for their service for the first year 
or so, it's definitely a deal to jump on.  Normally, this offer would normally 
sound too good to be true, but I have grown to trust this company and I know 
that they are doing some major marketing right now, so I'd definitely say to 
try them out at least.

I'm not sure if the offer is still on, but I believe the e-mail said that it 
was for the remainder of 2000.  Anyway, I would contact off...@lfchosting.com 
for details; I highly recommend going with this host because, as you said, it 
is way to easy to get ripped off by a semi-legitimate hosting company, and I 
was incredibly fortunate to find this one :)

Also, I should mention that most hosts promise a seamless transfer of your 
website, but this is the first host that I have been with that actually 
followed through, so I wouldn't worry about the job of transferring your 
site, they make it REALLY easy.

I highly recommend LFC Hosting to anyone doing business online, even if they 
are already satisfied with their current host (they don't know what they're 
missing); I intend to stay with this company for years to come, they have 
helped my business tremendously.


Hope this helps,

Jon
