How to read Webhostingtalk
At Webhostingtalk.com, hosts will say things in a strange language.It's a little similar to Real estate sales talk, or used car sales talk.You need to listen and decode what they are saying.http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=568436Basically, the hosts are there to catch a food, I mean clients.So, they will try to entice you, push you, pull you with any means they know.Some hosts are there to simply enjoy, waste their time, observe competitors, though.Often, these guys don't carry any link to their company in their sig.Or they won't go into one of "recommend me a good host" threads.But they are minorities.
