Dreamhost may have made marketing redemption with the beautiful and revealing Web Hosting’s Dirty Laundry. A brief, and quality, tirade into the realm of ‘independent hosting review sites’ that market themselves as user sites displaying the best of the best; though apparently the independent reviews are simply fluff for the highest buyer, not the best value.
Hosting-Review.com Quotes their fantastic site as:
Hosting-Review is an independent provider of web hosting reviews. We base our reviews on knowledge, personal experience with webhosts and user feedback.
Even their about page lists their independent qualified reviews of hosting sources.
Keep clear kids, Hosting-Review.com cares more about their commission checks than your consumer experience — read Dreamhost’s “Web Hosting’s Dirty Laundry” for the goods.
