Hosting Review: ResellerZoom

Anthony — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 03:01:32 +0000

ResellerZoom is the reseller branch of HostingZoom. They offer a number of competitive reseller plans starting at just $6.95 per month.

Reliability: I have used ResellerZoom for over a year and can’t remember them going down. However, there servers sometimes throw 500 internal server errors for no real reason (used to be with Wordpress) but it looks like this issue has been fixed.

Customer Support: They offer a fast and responsive helpdesk service as well as email. Depending on the plan you purchase, you may also receive live chat support. However, this is unacceptable. They should offer live chat support to ALL customers! You shouldn’t be penalized for not needed as much resources as other users. They also don not offer phone support.

Features: ResellerZoom comes with all the features you expect including cPanel, WHM, Fatastico and they offer a free domain reseller account (once again for some plans only) and a paid upgrade for billing software (for running your own hosting service).

Overall: Although they have great reliability, there support is below par - you can find the same service at the same price with better customer service elsewhere.

Share Files on Twitter

Twitter is a great micro-blogging provider that has a strong following and a great community feel. What makes Twitter so great is its simplicity - it really only allows you to do one thing and that is to post a message of 140 characters max. But sometimes you want something a little extra, such as the ability to share files.

Thanks to Tweetcube you now can. Tweetcube allows you to share files via Twitter through a really simple and easy to use interface. With just a couple of clicks you can blast out your documents, music, videos and more to your Twitter following.

Tweetcube is free to use, but they have a 10mb file limit and delete files after 30 days. But you get unlimited downloads, bandwidth and uploads - which makes it perfect for most users.
