    I've tried looking for them on various web hosting forums, however haven't had any luck. I've looked over there website and quite a few of their links are broken, not a good sign! They also have the standard WHMCS template (not very professional). These things would normally put me off

    "Unlimited" hosting for $1? That should stop you right there.

    Secondly, legitimate companies do not hide their domain WHOIS information.

    Yeah,thats why i asked. But i have used this sort of "unlimited" hosting in other companies for just 2-3$ and everything were ok.

    But i guess hostripples cant be trusted. Thx for the replies.

    I did my own search about Hostripples.

    There arent much info about them and nobody suggests them or even post a confirmed review,so well known and reputed company isnt true. Plus i think they recently changed ownership and also domain,so noone can be sure about them...at least for now.

    I advise you to stay away from unlimited web hosts and differently stay miles away from $1 unlimited web hosts.
