Webmaster and Businessman Rich Hummington’s Review of Lunarpages

Written on June 17, 2006

Hello

Serving as the web hosting division of Add2Net, Inc., the staff and technical support team at Lunarpages has been in the web hosting industry for over 6 years. This is relatively long considering that most web hosting companies are overnight operations. In fact, I’ve personally used them for a family site of mine since late 2000

Lunarpages has earned a reputation as a provider with superior customer support and a solid web hosting data center. Unlike most web hosting companies, you can always get through the phone line with Lunarpages. Also, the $6.95 monthly plan offers everything you need in order to make the presence of your business successful on the web. Really, they're one of the more well-rounded web hosting companies in the industry!

Customer support at Lunarpages is superior and they are very responsive to your questions.

Lunarpages offers decent pricing on their web-hosting plans. For a mere $6.95 a month, you receive 35 GB of space and 800 GB of traffic. They also offer a $21.95 web-hosting package, which has double the amount of features. But for most users, the $6.95 is sufficient enough. You can host more than 1 site per account here and they offer unlimited databases with Fantastico scripts.

Unlike some companies who focus only on the low-end segment by using low-end equipment, Lunarpages exclusively uses high-end Dell servers at their data center located in downtown Los Angeles. As a result, you will get above average web hosting performance and reliability that other providers normally charge a premium for.

Lunarpages currently utilizes the latest version of the CPanel 5 control panel. The features are pretty much the same to other CPanel, such as mailbox modification, password changes, ftp login modifications, statistical information, and so on. CPanel doesn’t offer any web-building tool, but for web hosting administration it offers the user an easy and intuitive interface along with powerfully packed features.

In addition, you also get unlimited toll free support with all web hosting plans, which is not so common among web hosting companies. Customer support at Lunarpages is superior and they are very responsive to your questions. Even e-mail support questions always get answered in a timely manner; a rare occurrence in today’s industry.

New accounts are usually setup the same day (after they verify the order with you over the phone, a process that typically occurs within thirty minutes to one hour of the purchase). It is essential that a working phone number be inputted into the system in order for your account to be setup immediately, otherwise the account setup may be delayed for a more in-depth fraud check.

The Hosting Chart hereby awards Lunarpages the #7 Web Hosting Rank.
