You will notice that the old reviews are positive. They used to be a great host, but in recent times have changed. My site speed has rapidly declined as they over sell their bandwidth. Every attempt to fix the issue was riddled with excuses and the worst thing is if you read their policies, NO REFUNDS. So even though their service has declined you don't get your money back! Stay clear of them and save yourself the time, money, and hassle! |

I host and maintain a site there. I use MivaMerchant to sell CDs. I have been there 3 or 4 years now.
OK the price is not the best around. I stay there because it's all set up and I don't want to go through the hassle of moving it. That said, I had to call tech help to set up MivaMerchant and they really helped me. No complaints, up and running and selling. I don't really like MiveMerchant- there's not enough customization and what there is is hard to do; it looks "old" and sort of feels old, but it does the job.
The site is up and stays up. Just static HTML + javascript so there you go.
They host your pages. They answer emails and the phone. They are not *shady* in any sense of the word. That's about it; nothing to complain about. |

Westhost used to be great, but then I decided to participate in their beta upgrade program. Now they erroneously show in their files that I am at 152% disk use capacity when I'm at around 50% (which one of their techs confirmed). However, instead of helping to fix the program, one of their sales rep tried to get me to sign up for a more expensive plan--and then he changed my ticket to "resolved"--yes, telling me that I should upgrade my plan helps resolve my problem. I am switching soon. |

I have been with westhost since 06 so I assume since their 05 problems they definatelly did major uodates, as I read below how terrible they were. I ma dedicated server with them, no problems at all. If I need anyting they have live 24 hours chat so I can chat at any time I want.
Disadvantage: They have their own control panel so it was little difficult to adjust. But on the other hand, no hacker attacks. Also adding more domains on your curent hosting package is limited and of course their dedicated prices are high.
Advanatage: Great suport and so far I had no downtime in any way. |

The worst host I have ever used. Terrible support, reliability and technology.
We were lumped with them on a dedicated server, which seemed an excuse to ignore us.
I have finally managed to get all our sites off them, thank god. |

Never had any real problems with them, anytime I called tech support they where quick to fix the problem. Have only been down once, but they had good reason and gave refund. There OK in my Book. |

Our site was down for 50 hours August 3-5, 2005. Again for 2 hours on the 8th and 3 hours on the evening of the 8th. Absolutely unacceptable performance. Cost us thousands of dollars. |
