Web Hosting Pal Review
As a webmaster, you need to find the right hosting to fit your needs that is fairly priced and offers reliability. Doing a paid review for Web Hosting Pal is quite easy considering they offer a service much needed by all webmasters.
When fist visiting the Web Hosting Pal site, the first thing you see is a beginners guide to web hosting. It looked like some good information so I clicked on the links. I was shocked to find that the guide was only a list of questions with no answers to the questions. Needless to say, the first impression was a disappointment.
I did look further into the Web Hosting Pal website and I was pleased to find a top 10 list of web hosting providers. The reviews are well laid out with all the information needed to make an informed decision on whom to choice for web hosting. My problem here was the list states that the list was last updated October 2005. On the home page, Blue Host is listed as the number one of the top 10 list. However, when you go to the top 10 list, Blue Host is not even listed. This makes me wonder which list is the most current.
Another problem that I found was that the number four web hosting company on the top 10 list is iPowerWeb and on the bottom of the web page, they have a link to several complaints about this company. Should this not be removed from the list?
The concept of Web Hosting Pal is great. They do offer a wonderful review of the web hosting companies. However, the site is unfinished and seems to be very outdated. The beginners guide would be great but if you follow the link on the top of the page, it takes you to a video game. I would love to see this site updated and the problems fixed. If the problems were fixed, I would highly recommend this site as one of the better web hosting review sites I have seen on the Internet.
I find alot of review sites not updated very much. Have you a way of quickly discovering when the last ime it has been updated?
This one was easy because they had the date there. Normally you can at least look at the copyright date on the bottom of the page and see that it is the current year. In this instance, the Top 10 list had a date right above it of October 2005.
It is sad that many review sites lose the momentum and stop updating. I tried to have a coupon and codes page on one of my old websites. However, it took so much time to keep it updated I just removed it. Good lesson not to get into something you do not have time for. I am beginning to wonder if my six blogs and my wife’s one is too much.
I have enough problems just trying to read all the blogs I found. I have been thinking about setting a blog like yours but I don’t know if I have enough time either.
