This is one article that I can guarantee you that no other web hosting provider wants you to read. This is the article that will reveal the truth. If you are thinking about purchasing web hosting I strongly advise you to wait until after you have read this article. If you currently have web hosting you may begin to feel a slight tingle in the pit of your stomach after reading this article.

I am about to reveal the number one scam used by web hosting providers. That is the notorious ?setup fee?. As I was doing research for this article various web hosting providers were charging anywhere from $10 to $50 as a setup fee. Now take a second and think about this? Since their system is fully automated why are you being charged a setup fee? Is it because of the wear and tear on the machines and or the computers?

It takes as long to setup a domain on a server as it does for you to save a 100 page Microsoft Word Document. That's approximately 10 to 15 seconds. I don't know about you, but I find $10 to $50 for 10 to 15 seconds of automated work a pretty hard pill to swallow.

How does your stomach feel?

Well there is more!

Have you ever seen those web hosting offers that offer to pay for your domain? Maybe they didn't say it exactly like that. They have a ton of ways that they present it to you? Some may say that they will pay for your domain for as long as you host with them. The truth of the matter is ? it doesn't matter how it is worded the bottom line is it's a scam. If you allow the hosting provider to pay for your domain and register it for you, that makes them the legal owner of the domain name.

It isn't until things go wrong that you discover the ugly truth. Let's say that you wake up one day and for whatever reason you are unsatisfied with your current hosting provider. You are ready to transfer your domain to a new hosting provider then you discover ? there is a hidden fee. This fee usually cost approximately $150.

I have been an online entrepreneur for well over 10 years. I have had just about every bad experience that you could imagine. Trust me when I say ? several web hosting provider know me pretty well. It was all of these bad experiences that motivated me to launch my own web hosting company. I wanted to offer the little guy a fighting chance. My only hold back is that I didn't want to start from scratch.

After months and months of frustrations I decided to go ahead and purchase and already existing web hosting company. I made a few modifications to their already existing business plan and have been growing at an alarming rate every since.

Please don't take this article as a poor attempt to drum up business. As you already know there are two sides to every story. And the other side is ? there are a lot of excellent web hosting companies out there. All that I am asking is that you stop by and give us a look. If you like what you see then I would appreciate your business. If you don't like what you see, I still appreciate your time for stopping by.

Remember? Web hosting is the foundation of any good website.
