Web.com Review 2009 – The only hosting company listed on Nasdaq!
Monday, June 1st, 2009User Submitted Reviews of Web.com for 2009. Great for Small Business Owners!
Web.com, an internet service provider, was founded during, what I like to call, the dawn of the web hosting age on 1999. Web.com is one of the very few hosting companies listed on Nasdaq – Others include Network Solutions, Enom, and Godaddy.
Since its creation, users have created over 15 million successful websites with their website building tool. This is one fact that I can say no other hosting company can compare with.
Company Websites: www.web.com, www.web.net
Lets take a look at the services they offer:
They offer a ridiculous amount of services – from web design, to marketing, to web hosting – they can provide you everything you need to start and run a successful website. If you have no experience with websites, no problem. They will fully manage every aspect of a web site – however it does come at a price.
They currently offer 2 types of web hosting services:
Shared Hosting -They offer your typical unlimited disk space and bandwidth web hosting plans – They have both Linux and Windows servers you can choose from. While I have seen many a good reviews of web.com, I am still highly skeptical of any web host that offers unlimited anything. Because of this, I highly recommend you always keep backups of your website, and have a plan in action just in case they decide to suspend you one day. Plans are a little bit more expensive than the typical web host, but you are paying for quality. Save 20% on Web.com web creation/web hosting products using code TWC287
E-Commerce Hosting - Their ecommerce plans are very expensive – start @ $59.95/m. If you want an all in one solution – AKA are a newbie – this plan will definitely provide everything you need. That said, if you actually know what you are doing, than do yourself a favor and buy a cheaper plan and setup all the ecommerce stuff on your own – this will save you a lot of money. Sell and Market Your Products Online using Web.com
Email Servers – If you have your own in house email servers that are costing you a fortune, their Microsoft Exchange email servers can really save you a whole lot of cash. Starting at $8.95/m, this is nothing compared to the hundreds/m businesses end up paying to have their own in house email.
