Hot Deal on Web Hosting 1.95 a month!

[intelins1de]

Hey guys I've been a long time lurker here and just never really had anything of intelligence to post hehe anyways I seen this deal over at General [M]ayhem and at first I was skeptical but I recently signed up and it's great... the support the best I've ever had, not to mention the prices so I figured I would pass it along.

If you're interested the link to the thread is http://www.genmay.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=164169

Hmmm, so what's wrong with this deal? Do they have a minimum contract, or anything?

The Fine Print says $5 for each Gig of transfer you go over. Not too shabby I guess. There's not a whole lot in the fine print, so I guess it's a good deal.

Whether or not they are reliable is another matter.

Great deal for an enthusiest. Nothing for any major websites to transfer to.

They guarantee 99.95% uptime. Some providers guarantee 99.99% uptime. In a month (720 hour period) this translates to 36 hours of downtime. One and a half days.

Wouldn't 99.95% mean only 22 minutes of downtime?

no, it is 36 minutes of downtime a month

My bad. Hit equals instead of percent symbol when I put in 0.05. I knew that number seemed fishy.
The question is, what will they do when they don't meet that guarantee? Free hosting for that month?

It would only be 36 minutes if we were using some kind of metric system for time. You need to multiply .36 to 60 minutes to get 21.6 minutes. I rounded off to 22 minutes.
