A Small Orange is a great web hosting deal. They offer different types of hosting services that start at 5.00, which is great. The reason this is great, is they are always online most of the time, and when they are down, they are down for a limited time. Very fast.

I highly recommend them.

They are so overpriced.

Not for what they offer. IMO, they offer the best in Hosting needs. They are fast, and luxury is what counts, when you are dealing with the web. Why spend 1.00 on hosting, when it is going to bum out. I would spend the extra money and get something good for it's money.

Yeah, but if you can find good hosting for less, and you can, then ASO seems dumn.

ASO is far from dumb. ASO is a great hosting service. I know many people that use them, and have no problems with them. The fact is, there is so much to choose from, so how can anyone agree on this topic?

It's a tough world out in cyberspace, and so much competition, yet so many people to choose from too. I don't know... I happen to like ASO, as it rules over any other hosting I have used in the past.

The most important thing about a host is reliabilty and if people find a reliable host they tend to stick with it no matter if there are cheaper offers elsewhere.

**gprime** · 08-10-2005, 04:54 PM

Right. And that's the thing. ASO is known only for its relyablity (sp?) and customer support. But if you can get something comparable for less, then why not?

**imported_sparky** · 08-10-2005, 04:59 PM

True but as the saying goes you get what you pay for. You could either stay with your more expensive host (which is still a pretty good deal) and know you will have reliable service for as long as you are with them, or you can move somewhere cheaper and PROBABLY get the same standard of service.

**Quicksilver** · 08-10-2005, 05:49 PM

I think you would want reliable services if you really wanted help so everything really just evens out.

**admin_old** · 08-10-2005, 10:11 PM

I would rather spend the extra money and get what I pay for, rather than risk going for something low and not worth it. Just me I guess. I like to spend money.

Yep you usually get what you pay for in the long term
