Hello,

Never host your website/server on this type of hosting company.

  • They display TOS/AUP Link but link is broken(404 not found)  - (Acceptable If they are unaware of broken link issue)
  • No TOS/AUP/Refund Link
  • Copyright 2004 to 2013 but domain registration date is January 2013
  • Live Chat status show ONLINE on their website but If you click on Live Chat button then you will get a message like "Currenty Offline"
  • Fake BBB Accredited logo or Truste,etc
  • On some page show a "Lorem Ipsum"
  • Footer link goes to "#"
  • Does not even change company logo and showing a logo of pre-made theme "Your Company Name Here"
  • $20/m Dedicated server - 16GB RAM offer always show out of stock (Use only for getting a more visitors)

What?  Were you shopping over at VolumeDrive's website again :) ?

There are so many companies that violate these few gotchas.

Everyone else feel free to chime in with others.

There are a lot of hosters that seem to not trust their future customers.

Private whois even if I have to send them money.

Adress of datacenter.

Cheap template where there did not change all "enter real information here".

Ghost twitter account with one tweet two years ago.

Some trusted logos which you can buy for 1$ each.

And out of stock of all offers that would be interesting.

Didn't you used to do some of the above?

Your live chat used to be permanently offline.

Is this really the reason you are posting?

Who offers a $20 spot 16GB RAM server?   Someone really do that or advertise to fool people that they do?

Copyright protects content, it has nothing to do with the domain name/registration. So if the content was used on a seperate domain, and transfered to another domain it wouldn't change the copyright as long as the original owner stays the same.

Besides, typically it should be posted as

Copyright [dates] by [author/owner/company]

If your website is just a stock WMHCS install... well.. that doesn't look good.

Think Datashack was like this at one point. I know CNServers.com still is (but people use them). I'm weary of any company who can't spend as little as $20 on some template or afford a custom design.
