    The fact that they offer "Unlimited" disk space and bandwidth can be a bad sign unless they have top management and services that can compare to big hosts like HostGator or HostMonster, but even those hosts can cause problems to some clients from time to time.

    If you really do need a large amount of disk space and bandwidth, I recommend using a VPS as it is a lot more reliable and secure. If you do not need a great deal of disk space/bandwidth then go for a smaller host that probably won't oversell.

    It really depends on what your needs are when it comes to determining if a host is good for you or not.

    We have many reviews. Just search google or DP.

    @lorddan01 - I dont know where you saw unlimited hosting for proxy plans?

    Also if you are thinking of registering for proxy hosting please do so tomorrow as our newest proxy server will be up and you will be placed on it. But as I said above ask around we have many positive reviews.

    Have a great day!

    Sorry lol i got confused, its the hosting i use for my forum which has unlimited, however tmz is still very good and the support is the best ive seen from a hosting provider. Usually they take the money and run, however we felt at one point the hosting wasn't for us so we went to cancel and they offered us a free month which is very generous.:)

    That's great communication on both ends (customer and host) :) Has your site picked up in popularity?

    well, I have my 13 proxy website on them and work fine and generate earning from this proxy, and better to contact their support online, very fast online support.

    -price = great
    -support = great
    -speeds = extremely slow at the moment, though I'm on shared proxy.

    Overall: never had any major problems so far & I've been with them since July 2008

    I never used tmz, but I do use byohosting.com services and just wanted to post here that they are really sick. Don't ever go with byohosting.

    Did you email support about the slowness? We need to check the server out ASAP. Please PM me your domain so we can look into it.

    yeah, I submitted a ticket & they said they were going to switch me to a different server which could take about 48 hours. So I cant comment on the speeds yet until its finished...hopefully its faster than before

    I've been using the 'Starter' proxy plan for almost two months now, and the server hasn't went down yet :)

    I recommend them for proxy hosting.

    an update on the speed issue...

    the admin told me some changes were made on the server end and now my site loads quickly now. I'm not sure what was done, but its fixed and everything is back to normal

    -price = great
    -support = excellent
    -speeds = great
