Web Hosting Reviews - Buyer Beware?

author Posted by: James Norris | filed Filed under: Hosting Tips & Advice

 

You may think that when getting ready to start up an online blog or business, that reading web hosting reviews are the way to go in helping with your decision making process. Since choosing a web host is such a huge decision, let’s go through a couple of things before you have your mind set on those web hosting reviews.

First we’ll talk about testimonials and reviews on a particular web hosting company’s website. All of the reviews that you will find on these sites will be positive reviews. Some might say that they are even a little over the top with positive information about the web hosting service provider. What does this say about the company? Well, it either tells us that the company is actually the best that there is available to us or it tells us that they have hired someone to write these top notch reviews. Although some of the reviews might be of actual customers, it could also mean that since the company has the resources to filter the information coming through to them, they have the ability and reason to delete the negative reviews.

Some company’s have affiliate websites. They work together such as websites like eBay and Pay-Pal work together. These companies have every opportunity to advertise through their affiliate websites and post reviews through them so that customers don’t think that it’s the website posting the reviews.

There are plenty of web hosting review sites on the Internet as well. The funny thing about that is, that each and every one of the top web hosting lists on the sites is completely different than the next. How can you trust something that changes so drastically with each click of a button?

If you are insistent on using web hosting reviews to help you make your final decision, I fell that the best reviews to use are those found in threads on web hosting forums. Because of web hosting forums, people from all over the world are able to include their input on a certain company. These include good details and bad details. Either way, you can rest assured that these reviews are more reliable than any other reviews out there.

At the end of the day, you really want to choose the company that you feel will work the best for you. If you will be using reviews to help guide you in your decision making process, use only reviews with positive and negative information. Discard any review with strictly positive information. Talk to customer service and ask plenty of questions before making your final decision.
