Discover the "not so obvious" truth

Customer Service and Online Support: We want great support, and we want it 24 hours a day. We want it to be there for us by online chat, mail, and phone. If it does have them all, then it qualifies.

-Bandwidth: We want the cheapest plan a company offers to offer a minimum of 30 GB's of bandwidth.
-Features: We want it to come fully packed with everything you need or may need at any point of your website's existence: MySQL databases, PHP, CGI, PERL, unlimited email accounts, Free Blog installation, Domain Stats and keywords people used to find your website, Free Shopping Cart and anything else you might need, we want it to have it all.
-Addon Domains: This is a secret most people don't know but there are companies that allow you to host many domains in a single account without paying anything extra for it. This can save you plenty of money every month if you have more than one domain name.
-Value For Price: This is the overall value of their service matched against the price you pay.
