    It does appear that they are really very new because the Contact Us page at http://banghost.org/contact.html is made up of nonsenstical data, it looks like they have not modify the template as yet.

    Caveat Emptor, their web page isn't really completed and as Eddy point out the contact page is a mess. Do a google if you can find anything on it before deciding.

    Why do you want to eisk your websites and your money as well,by trying such new web hosts. The best way is to choose the BEST OF THE BEST.
    IF you are looking for a web host with ALL IN ONE stuffs and great space and bandwidth,then my 2nd signature link,WEB HOST is the best i guess. You can get all the services from it and its highly recommended also.
    You can have a Google search for it as well.
    Thanks..

    Looks real sketch- the guy probably just bought a template and forgot about the contact us page. You should google search some bigger hosts who've been in business longer.

    Every host must start some where. They might not have $1,000+ which is the average price for a decent custom web hosting design from companies such as Loading deck.

    This thread could drive away so much potential money for their business, that they might not be able to survive. Smaller companies rely on clients giving them a 'chance'. If they don't they just won't make money.

    It is important that they do have their site setup and complete. You would want to try and 'test' their support before ordering though.

    I'd stay away from them. I've had multiple horrible experiences from 'new' hosts.

    I have never heard of them. I would recommend googling banghost reviews.

    You never heared of this hosting company. Or you have read a few positive feedback notes that might as well be fake or influent.

    Guys, it's time to let the big players do their job and let the amateur resellers cool down. Big companies sell $4 packages with huge spage and traffic allowance, I know we all want to make a decent living but it looks like we are misunderstanding a trivial rule. If you want to be a webhosting company, you have to be dedicated to it.

    You can't just buy a server and re-sell it into smaller packages. This kind of deal can not be treated as serious.

    Things like "take a look at this deal" or "See my offer" are burnt out. Get real.

    Clive, you do make a very good point. The hosting industry is indeed reaching maturity.

    I feel those words I wrote above. I partnered once for a web hosting company, we purchased a server to play with and a domain name quite a few years ago. I now realise how childish that idea was. You can run a hosting service for in-house customers, that's cool but then calling yourself a hosting company is a bit too much. I personally know many under 18year old fellows doing this. Call it a serious business then?

    You don't have too many chances to know who stands behind the "great support team" you gave your money to. And if a project is solid then I doubt one could afford to take the risk.

    I wouldn't use it.
    Gave me a review copy, and cpanel barely worked.

    They look exceedingly new....but as mentioned these small hosts have to start somewhere. It would depend on how mission critical the site you are planning on hosting with them is...otherwise I suggest going with a brand that is well known.
