Massive resources on even the cheapest plans.

PPPSo I came across something of interest today that I thought I’d share. May seem like a conflict of interest but when you’re pushing another company completely – isn’t that just being nice?

EasyCGI is currently offering free web hosting for one year. They offer you a 99.9% uptime guarantee, 24/7 phone support, one-step script installation tools, web traffic reports, set up and knowledge base tutorials.

I’ve been poking around their control panel for the last few months now, one of my clients is hosted through them. I haven’t personally been able to even find this auto-install program so I can’t say I agree that they have one – but this again is based on my own experience. I’m used to cPanel based hosting, they’re Windows based. You can’t chmod anything unless you log into the control panel and do it manually and when you’re installing scripts I can say it’s a pain but again, it’s my comfort zone really.

The free hosting isn’t a gimmick, it’s for anyone who signs up through the promotional URL that I posted. For those paying for the hosting, their plans start in the $7.96 a month. I do think they’re over-selling a bit because $8 a month for 350gb of disk space and 3.5 TB of bandwidth seems a little odd to me but if they’re managing to easily maintain that with shared webhosting, then congrats to them.
