Free Website Hosting versus Paid Hosting........ -

We can analyze all these issues on the example of an international hosting provider Globat. Famous for its endless promotions, and highly active marketing position, Globat has quickly gained popularity and has drawn many clients. This hosting provider regularly offers promotions for new and old customers, as well as holds special events for attracting even more clients. Starting from 2001, the hosting provider Globat has received around 10 various awards for the quality of services offered.

Though Globat's success is still disputable - and not everyone like it - it stilll exists and gains popularity all over the country. It prices are quite affordable, and services are quite acceptable.

The most popular packages by Globat at the present moment are Tera Byte Extreme and the Tera Byte XS. The clients receive 1000 GB (1 TB) of disk space, 1000 GB (1 TB) of data transfer, the possibility to host up to ten domains on one account, unlimited e-mail accounts, unlimited web mail accounts, one year money-back guarantee and free 24/7/365 phone and chat support. The more expensive business package costs $18.95 and includes 5000 GB (5 TB) of disk space, 2000 GB (2 TB) of data transfer a month, a possibility to host up to 100 domains on 1 account, as well as all other features, relevant for the first package.

The technical assistance of the Globat hosting provider is represented by email, ticketing and phone support. All the services operate 24 hours a day 7 days a week, making it extremely convenient for the customers, who might have some problems with their websites. The response time of the supporting services is pretty high.

Just as it happens with any product, not all clients who tried to use it, liked it. Although positioned as a universal hosting provider for absolutely everybody, Globat is probably more suitable for well-experienced computer users, webmasters and programmers, who can and need to use all the available features and know very well how to work with websites on their own. A study shows that not all customers are satisfied with the services, provided by Globat, which only supports the previous statement.
