This host is good if you need a host for a small company that wants some web presence but is not in the need for a perfect record or does not need a lot of tech stuff.

It is true that this guys give you PHP, mysql and a lot of other stuff but installing is not always easy, tech support is incompetent and sometimes that stuff just doesn´t work. If your web-page or your clients is just plain html, images or flash this is more than you need. If, on the other hand, you need dynamic stuff, just keep away.

In my experience with them, I've had the database service (in my case mysql) stop working a few times for no apparent reason. Also, when setting up the mysql account, I had to go through 3 different technicians for one to finally solve my problems since the first two did not seem prepared.

On the other hand, the server uptime and response time is amazing or, at least really good. If you have a webpage based in plain html and need a good amount of webspace this could be a good alternative. However, if what you need is just a few megs you could go with doteasy that gives you 20 for around $20 a month and their support is not that bad, or at least as CIhost's.

And make sure you need nothing from the tech support or billing department.
