Web Hosting..an abused niche?
I came across a blog post by Ahmed over at Techsoapbox about web hosting or more accurately web hosting directories and how they really are just a niche that (in his words) has been abused, raped and pillaged.
After doing a search on ‘web hosting directory” on Google he says the top 10 are just ’shill’ sites, and if your wondering what shill means its - “One who poses as a satisfied customer or an enthusiastic gambler to dupe bystanders into participating in a swindle.”, so basically most of the web hosting directories out there are just duping people.
However there are some really good ones out there like Great Hosting Resource that has over 5,000 user reviews of web hosts to help you find that good host you’ve been looking for.They also have guides and articles that are really usefull especially if your on your path for your first ever hosting package, they cover all aspects of hosting - shared, dedicated, vps (Virtual Private server), game server and reseller hosing.
