Web Hosting Company: POWWEB
Web hosting features and remarks: Their only web hosting plan offers very good features at a reasonable price. In addition, they accept payments by PayPal. Furthermore, they have Overture credit and currently a special offer of extended length of web hosting solution.
One bad thing about POWWEB's web hosting plan is the number of MySQL databases, which is only 5. (As of April, 2007, they give out 75 MSQL databases.) Nonetheless, they only charge $93.24 for one year. (It's $69.24 as of April, 2007.) So the package as a whole may look good and acceptable even for business uses.
On April 18, 2007, PowWeb announced that the number of websites hosted at the company increased is more than 100,000. |
