This host is very deceptive in how they promote their wares. They advertise 65gb of transfer/month. Yet, in the very fine print of the Terms of Service, they mention nonchalantly, that if your site taxes the cpu of the server, it will be suspended...
Well logically, the unwary webhosting shopper would assume that their servers took into account the amount of hits and network traffic a site that commands 65gb of transfer a month... so you should be safe assuming you have a fairly normal site. Wrong!
After using 4.5 GB of transfer, on a very normal forum website, I was warned. The site began to lag horribly as they crammed more and more sites onto the same little server. Warning me that I was taxing their CPU. Well of course I was... if you cram 100 sites onto 1 little server box... 10 hits per hour is gonna crush it...
They advertise 65gb of transfer... I was suspended after using 7 over the course of 10 days... so average... 21gb for a month... not even close to the "supposed" cap of 65gb... You will never get to use even half of your bandwidth allowance. I strongly recommend not using this deceptive companies service. They tag you for setup fee's and more if you cancel within the 1st 30 days. About the cost of 6 months of service. This is how they make their money. By getting people to sign up thinking WOW, 65gb a month for $7.95.. wrong.. you'll get 10 days and pay them about $40! Then they scamper off to scam the next victim!
