That's the trick. There are no free lunches. Hostgator is quite famous in India for their cheap web hosting offers. I'm not too sure about the quality of hosting they provide. But once you're through the first year of operations; they're going to charge money and any serious website shouldn't rely on cheap web hosting.Praveen-KumarAnother thing is, it is free only for the first year! 😔

Hey, AFAIK, only SquareBrothers Information Technology, Chennai, is providing the best hosting service. I have been hosting my websites for about 4 years till now and changed about 3 hosts. SB is doing very well. Others are sick! Seriously, the downtime is higher than their promised 99.99% or whatever SLA!!!The_Big_KThat's the trick. There are no free lunches.

I'm not saying cheap => poor quality. But in 99% of the times, it's a case.

They must be re-sellers or do they own the data centers? I'd trust a company that owns their data centers than resellers. I think E2 Networks, Reliance and Tata are better hosting providers in India. But never used their services.Praveen-KumarHey, AFAIK, only SquareBrothers Information Technology, Chennai, is providing the best hosting service.

PS: What is CE's hosting company?

Tata & Reliance??? 😁 😲 I have no clue!!! Well, SB had once said that their servers are in Dallas DataCentres (No idea how true), but I haven't experienced a single bad impression on them, neither a downtime! 😀The_Big_KThey must be re-sellers or do they own the data centers?

I guess they are giving us FTP access! 😀vincihostgator with google is providing simple static web sites for 1 year where we cant include dynamic things like code etc.Also ,they have pre defined themes and i think it just gives an experience how to control a simple website nothing else
