Business Model Of a Scam Host And how to avoid them.
Hello,
Ok so im getting fedup of all these scam hosts, so i thought what the hell, ill post the model so even joe blogs the newbie knows the signs and can hopefully avoid this type of host.
FACT #1 - With ONLY $32 or LESS Any kid can start a scam host...
Business Model:
Basic Costs:
Domain: $8
Reseller: $8 or less.
WHMCS: $16
Total Month 1: $32
Total Month 2: $24 (if its even around for a second month)
The Complete Guide to Running a scam host
1. Spend the $32 On Domain, Reseller and whmcs
2. Upload the files
3. Copy and paste someone elses post (Real Example: http://www.besthostingforums.com/showthread.php?t=82430)
4. Start selling hosting.
5. Promise customers the world, offer discounts do it as cheap as possible who cares you are here today gone tomorrow.
6. Make $$$$$, and bank the $56 investment.
7. Close down keeping everyones money...
8. Rinse and repeat.
Real Life Example
1. Snowflake (http://www.besthostingforums.com/sea...archid=1012183)
Prewebhosts.info
DiamondSRV.org
CrazySRV.com
How do YOU AVOID Scammers like Snowflake?
1. ITS SIMPLE, Remember the old saying "You get what you pay for" well its true, you go for cheap hosting on a .info domain and you will get scammed 99% of the time.
2. Remember If someone is promosing you the world then they probably cannot deliver the basics.
3. Go to DomainTools.com, if the hosting company is say CrazySRV.com, and they are not using the name servers ns1.CrazySRV.com, it screams reseller which in this day and age usually means scammer although not always.
4. Again on DomainTools.com look at the age of the domain, if the age is a few weeks or a month then be careful now everyone has to start somewhere and some who are registered last month or yesterday may not be a scam but most are sadly and it should ring alarm bells.
5. Again on domain tools check the "Resolve Host:" Again if it has another hosts infomation then Reseller should be screaming at you, which should sound alarm bells.
Now im not saying Reseller = scam but reseller should alarm you becuase it is a cheap way to start up, and you want quality hosting, and sadly even if the reseller has the best intentions, they cannot really offer you good service with a reseller as they have NO control over the server.
6. Check the host you are planning to buy from http://www.besthostingforums.com/showthread.php?t=82280 or GOOGLE THE NAME AND READ REVIEWS.delboy Reviewed by delboy on .
