Top 10 Best Web Hosting Reviews - SCAMS EXPOSED

Visit http://hosting-reviews-exposed.com for more information.

Are "HOST REVIEW" sites honest? Are they unbiased, impartial, and factual... or are they just after your money? How does a hosting company get on the "top 10" list?

Amazingly most hosting reviews websites have one thing in common: They are getting paid by hosting companies for reviews (either directly in the form of advertising or indirectly via affiliate commissions) -- making their reviews extremely biased, one-sided, and highly questionable in terms of accuracy. They all promote the same group of companies.

The reason that the same hosting companies always make it to the "top" of the hosting comparison charts is because those companies, one way or another, pay to be listed there. These hosts include Host Monster, Blue Host, Lunar Pages, IX Webhosting, InMotionHosting, StartLogic, Host Pappa, Pow Web, etc.

It's a well-known fact web hosting companies running their affiliate programs through Commission Junction offer among the highest affiliate commissions in the hosting industry. Thus "clever" PPC (pay per click) affiliate marketers decided: why not create websites with "top web hosting companies" lists and list these companies as "top"?

Hosting company reviews seldom base their "rating" on their quality of service (although many claim to). Instead, most of them rate a webhost on the *size* of the affiliate commission. Those web hosts offering the highest commissions usually get the top spots -- because those hosting companies pay the most money.

So the next time you're looking for the best web hosting company (and you undoubtedly come across a "reviews" site), STOP AND THINK: What's their true objective? Are they providing you with impartial, unprejudiced facts? Or are they simply selling you a bill of goods, deceptively packaged in a "Top-10" list bought and paid for in the Twilight Zone?

You act like it's bad to be referred to a company by another person because they make money. but with all due respect isn't that what you are doing? isn't that what all of us do Make money of each other? I'm so sick and tired of people talking bad about affiliate marketers - their jobs are hard and why not throe them a bone - some of them are noble people making a hard living. Many of the top affiliate PAYING hosts are quite frankly very good! I know because me & my clients have tried them.

@sleepysgr By doing the same thing, I am telling you to use hosts that I never tried while making a buck? Sorry no that is not what I am doing. Yes I have advertising, and if there is anything I recommend I actually try it (like the kindles) I will not recommend hosts or products for the sake of payment when not even using them.. Or get a payout from those that pay for a fake rating. I have no issues with companies running affiliate programs, just those that lie to make a buck.

To the person who decided to post and then delete their youtube.com account. no I am not hosting with godaddy anymore, currently with media temple but in progress of moving to another hosts that I have not tried before.

ok what hosting review sites can I trust?

[reviewsexposed]

@seanyboy107 I suggest not trusting any of them. For tips on finding your own host I recommend reading my July 12, 2011 post  titled "My Top Ten Host……. tips – How to pick a shared host"

So is GoDaddy a bad place for webhosting to? They have been around for years and I always thought they were on the up and up. Just bought a site from them.

@tcbaqua I used to host with them, but the server I was on became to slow. Support seems to often to deal with someone that has to go through a faq section. Which honestly after 4 years of hosting my site on their servers I did not start using support til last year. In general they may be ok for a start up site where you don't have questions support wise you might be ok,

@jimmimak If domain was the only thing I had to worry about I would be a very rich man. How do you propose we have the satellites, the copper wires, and other parts of service paid for if those things you wished were free?

[reviewsexposed]

@MultiBrados *blush* no smarter then anyone else. I was just tired of getting burned by bad review companies, I am sure someone else would have done the same thing.

These are useless reviews. Your better off staying away from them because they will just steer you in the wrong direction. I purchased a product that they said was the Best in the field. Their TOP recommmentdation. Their #1 choice! When I downloaded the program I was immediately frustrated with the simplest of tasks. This led me to investigate and reveal their bias. I called my credit card company to stop payment immediately and then purchased the right program based on my own review.

I dont know why people host with godaddy, I just find them like a domain seller, thats it. Also, nice video man, never realized about those affiliate links. What about free hosting reviews?

[seanyboy107]

@reviewsexposed thanks allot man! really appreciated

[reviewsexposed]

@VistaCerralvo you missed the point, its not that the hosts are a scam. Its the review sites, who do this only to get paid. They do not actually see if the hosts they recommend actually live up to their claims. In most cases they don't even host with them.

[reviewsexposed]

@alliax Yes and taxes are paid by whom? Seriously I see people put more into a website when they actually pay for it then when they get it for free. Honestly at around $10 a year for a domain, and a few bucks a month for hosting, the burden should be on the people who want a site, not the tax payer.
