No positive highlights yet
So I have decided to write a positive review on this one as they have always been fair to me since I originally purchased their service back on 2016 and I am still using their service today. The only issue I have ever had was when their DC suffered some fire damage and they had to migrate accounts, it was a bit messy, but they got it done. Not sure why there are so many negative reviews when my experience has been solid, but I am sure that client experiences can vary on a case by case basis, but IMO they have been a solid provider for the past 7 years.
Pay only once host forever? Or once they get your money they don't care what happens. Months of downtime, useless support, very slow servers when they do work. Honestly this is not a money saving, you will just end up paying for a better host. If its to good to be true, it probably is. Save your money and use another host, loo at all the bad reviews we cannot all be wrong. You have been warned.
I purchased my lifetime. Hosting back several years ago but did not have a good IM / marketing application until now. But now... With these fairly recent posts, I might need to consider another more costly hosting service because of all of the disruptions of service that has been reported here.
It seemed peculiar that the training vids that used to be available vanished and they were not that helpful to begin with anyway.
At the beginning, I did have some login or other technical needs that were reasonably handled. Lately, some inquiries when unheeded.
So, although I might have lost my investment this might have been a blessing in disguise. Thanks to the previous posters.
I just became familiar with Lifetime Hosting early February 2017, so my experience has been limited. First, I have been developing websites since 1999, and I have worked with a number of fair to good hosting companies. I was attracted to Lifetime's "pay once" hosting plan, and I got a decent price through an online special.
In June I recommended Lifetime to a client who was on a budget, and then proceeded to set up his WordPress site on Lifetime... WHAT A NIGHTMARE. I do not know what IT staff they have running the network infrastrucure, but the database crashes and the network crashes (almost appeared as a DNS crash several times), the repeated EMAILs for tech support... too much loss time!
I lost nearly 30 hours of client development time bceause of the instability of Lifetime Hosting. My personal and professional projects that I setup, again around 40 hours of work, was lost due to their internal issues. I cannot recommend Lifetime Hosting in any capacity, and if you are a professional developer, stay away from them... their database trouble will cost you client and personal time.
