to this review here Hi everyone,
I've been with WebHost4Life for 12 years, going back when they were EHostingBiz. I've administered 3 separate accounts, dealing with them under 3 identities, all with the same results.
Their marketing is technically correct; their plans are cheap and the servers are usually up.
In practice the way they operate is completely ineffective. While their servers are usually up, their staff have gone in and either completely taken down your site, or have gone in and done willy-nilly guerrilla edits to try and mitigate the server problems they create on the frequent migrations they do to save money by grouping more and more sites per machine.
You will lose hundreds of hours of your own time struggling to even get their staff to acknowledge a problem exists, let alone do anything about it. In fact, my sites are down at this very instant, so I'm using my time wisely by warning you about them.
Additionally, the servers there are regularly hacked, and the attackers can jump across the virtual directories between your sites. Hack one, deface them all. Webho refuses to do anything about this or even acknowledge it.
Those of you thinking, "my site is simple, how can they screw it up", trust me they will.
12 years ago, I had over 20 paying hosting clients. They all left because of the downtime. There was nothing I could do because I had based my fee structure on webho/eho and no one else at the time had plans that cheap. Now it's a commodity market with plenty of substitutions.
Please, heed my advice and go elsewhere.
