Rep Power: 2 ![]() | Really, its incredible. Guys dont signup with the plans from webhosting companies which are impossible. Like unlimited space and bandwidth for $5 or even $1000, dont take it Some dedicated servers are priced at $100 or something and with bandwidth of 10000 gb or something. Dont go on these unbelievable offers because if you go, 90% of the cases you're going to loose your money and giving chance to the scammers to grow up! |

Rep Power: 10 ![]() | Anything unlimited is far from it. Too often, especially newer hosting companies will try and sell "unlimited" plans but then often find themselves over taxed. I've seen it countless times where people think they are getting a great deal for unlimited file transfers and then find themselves on a server with 500 other sites. |

Rep Power: 0 ![]() | True, I agree.. it is not really possible to sell anything unlimited on internet. I had experienced that too. One of the hosting company claimed unlimited email accounts with $4/month plan and when i approached them, they said that we can not provide you REAL unlimited email accounts. I knew that before i contacted them, i was aware that they can not afford giving me unlimited email accounts for the webhosting worth $4/ month. Words like "Unlimited" and "free" are just to gather traffic to the site and to create confusions for the visitor. |

Rep Power: 0 ![]() | Unlimited should be a banned word. I used to own a hosting company and it really peeved me when potential customers would ask why I didn't offer unlimited like the other guys. As though I was the one doing a dis-service. I mean really asking for something that is not even possible. Got on my nerves because not only did these hosting liars scam people, they made the legit ones look bad. |

Rep Power: 2 ![]() | A lot of companies are overselling even their servers are not capable of that. Ask them to send you specifications of their server before making a purchase and if it seems too good to be true then say goodbye and move to another.
