    EDIT: Now that I think about it, I'm not sure why I even posted. It could be a real testimonial...

    How do you know its fake? did Chris confirm it? may be he used their service for anything, or may be he is a friend of owner of that site?

    Hmm not sure, but this was soo funny i had to post it.

    As far as i know chris has his own server, he had the same email problem i had, so i know he has a server for himself.


    Umm chris hoffman owns one of the biggest directories on the net, rated among google and yahoo. he just cant be on shared hosting :p

    and for all i know chris would have bought a link on there...but that testimonial is very misleading lol


    lol this really made my day

    Yepp, it's odd, hard to believe that Chris would run any site on shared server.
    But as I see they provide Windows solution, may be Chirs needed them to run any ASP site?

    I do the same as I have an old site in ASP so I use a shared windows hosting to run that site, despite having multiple dedicated servers and VPS

    But Chris would have the last word to say on the matter.
    And if its fake..then LOL, its plain and simple Lame.

    I doubt Jason would put a fakey up there on his hosting site. He probably provided something for Chris in the way of hosting and this is how Chris responded.

    IMO

    Col :)

    Correct. I have done business with the company in a few different ways. It is a real testimonial I provided.

    Uhm, you can definitely tell that's a legit testimonial. That company is very successful, very big, and has a great reputation. No doubt someone like Chris would host there.

    I can see that your intentions were good, I’m not really sure people should post things like this until a full check is made.

    It’s clear now that the testimonial was genuine.

    Lesson learnt I hope.

    Thanks Brian
