Default Too large to be good?

I have never seen any provider to be offering shared hosting accounts of so large specs like routhost does...

Though they are costlier than usual hosts and nothing tells they cannot afford such amount, it still looks very...ermm.. interesting.

Maybe here sombody knows more of the provider whse site is Affordable Web Hosting | Cheap Web Hosting | Low Cost Website Host | RoutHost.com

Here is an interesting article you could read about Web hosting companies and Overselling.

Web Hosting Reviews - Overselling hosting

A lot of hosting companies do this, like Servage. As you can see, they offer an insane amount of space. It is very rare to see a client use all of the space that is offered.

I don't see anything out of place there.

My host (hostgator.com) offers unlimited space and bandwidth. I pay $9.95/month for it.

I highly recommend HostGator.com

I have gone through so many different hosting providers, and HostGator is by far the best!

Agreed. I think the best thing about them is their support, which is an absolute must when talking about Hosting companies.

Might pick up the reseller package soon

I agree with the above posts, I've used Hostgator for a little over a year now, they have only ever been down once (server upgrade) other than that it's been fine, fast and very good. Cheap as well.

I've heard great things about HostMonster. It's 6 bucks a month for just about unlimited everything. They don't have unlimited SQL Databases, but will you really go over 100?

Also, free domain when you sign up.

It's only 6$ a month if you pre-pay for like 24 months.

Okay, 12 month is 7 bucks. I'm assuming when someone gets a website, they're going to have it for a little bit, otherwise, what's the point?

Not to mention the advertised price on hostgator.com is 36 months.

Hello.

It appears about th OP has already lost the topical;ity, and I think such offers are not good... I was recommended to go webintellects.com the needed site was hosted ocver there at the unmetered bandwidth shared account with real webspace amount.
