Web Hosting Buzz Profile
WebHostingBuzz puts it quite well themselves: 'No webhost is perfect. But we're damn close.' And we have to agree. They offer web hosting with packages in all shapes and sizes, they guarantee up to 99,99% uptime and also a price freeze, meaning that once you're a customer, they will never increase the prices. And you get up to five domains for free, for life. It's pretty close to perfection.
WebHostingBuzz has a good attitude towards web hosting; simple if you want it to be, advanced if you need it to be. For customers with basic requirements, they have Silver, Gold and Platinum packages which include 300-750 gb of disk space and a bandwidth of 2000-5000 gb/month at the price of $4-10/month; prices that compare very well on the web hosting market. We're also impressed with their uptime guarantee, 99,99% means less than 5 minutes of downtime/month! WebHostingBuzz also works very well for bloggers, as it accepts most blog scripts.
For the more advanced users, WebHostingBuzz offers a large offer of different plans for Reseller web hosting and Managed dedicated servers, where customer customization seems to be the key aspect. Most scripts are supported, and all the necessary account and control panel functions and features are available. For the control panel, you can choose between 23 different languages, something quite unusual in this market. The WebHostingBuzz support is accessible 24/7, as expected, and is very reliable according to our testing. And if you wouldn't be happy with the web hosting services provided, there's always a 30 day Money Back guarantee with a full refund.
WebHostingBuzz started in 2002, is based in New Jersey, but has offices on three continents. They have currently over 100 servers serving 10,000 clients.

Web Hosting Buzz Reviews
Critizism mostly due to blocked email relays (mine is constantly blocked by Godaddy, AOL, AT&T, ...) and no relief in sight. Support is not helpful. Overall security is lax, which frequently leads to compromised accounts, resulting in spam operations on these servers.
I had high expectations of WHB and seemed fine at first. Developed serious outages and response time issues that went unresolved and resulted loss of revenues and customers. Proceed at your own risk
