PowWeb Review

Give PowWeb a serious look.

Quick Take

Like BlueHost and SimpleHost, PowWeb has just one plan. Luckily, it's a good one. You get the usual goodies (PHP, MySQL, Frontpage support, etc.), shopping cart and SSL support for commerce sites, a very active discussion community, and a $50 credit with Overture. Without a doubt, however, the centerpiece of their plan is their transfer allowance of a staggering 400 GB each month. No other discount hosting plan comes close. Give PowWeb a serious look.

Detailed View

PowWeb is another one-plan host, the kind that you folks seem to like so much, and I can't say I blame you. It is nice to see a single plan with everything thrown in rather than having to decide which level you actually need. But PowWeb has a lot going for it besides simplicity, most notably its relatively new "Zero Downtime" platform. This new network architecture uses multiple load-balanced servers to allow for automatic rollover in the case of a failure. All of which means that even if your server drops dead, your site doesn't go down. As the saying goes, that alone is worth the price of admission.

So what else do you get besides great reliability? A nice website builder for the newcomers. Web templates for the design challenged like myself. Sundry tools for checking your work, such as an HTML checker, an image optimizer, and a meta-tag generator. And let's not forget the massive bandwidth allowance. 10GB per day is way more than most of us will ever need.

PowWeb has been around for six years, so they are no fly-by-night operation. Instead, they are a solid host that has evolved from just part of the pack to a first rate contender. Their "zero downtime" architecture is top notch and should be the envy of many other hosts. Worthy of serious consideration.

• "When I first started with powweb about 3 years ago, I was given what was almost the best bandwidth and storage space around. Since then, they have continually increased my bandwidth and storage space without charging me more. What's even more impressive is the uptime. I can only remember once or twice my site going down in over 3 years for less than 5 minutes each. I recommned powweb for anyone interested in webspace." — Jason, Seattle, WA
