I first started using the WebHostingWorld services about three years ago. Their unlimited shared hosting services are very handy for me. I also have accounts with other hosting services, but ever since I started using WebHostingWorld services, I've moved all of my data over to WebHostingWorld servers

Great support!
August 18, 2018

So far, very impressive
We had a series of migration-related issues which took about a week to sort out. All in all, Webhostingworld.net tech support has been great, and this server is much faster than the reseller account I had with other host.

I recently made the switch Webhostingworld.net after hearing a lot of good things about them from my friends and colleagues, and I'm glad I listened. The service is great, I've never had issues with my site being down and the fact that they made it easy for me to set up a blog on WordPress has made me a fan. Also billing team is so prompt and sorted my double payment issues within 5 mints. I'd recommend their service to anyone who is looking to set up any kind of website.

We have read the reviews and agree, this company has not proven to be reliable, so, the question is:

WHO HAVE YOU FOUND TO BE A DEPENDABLE WHM HOST?

We are ready to migrate!

Thanks to all...

Scam Artist
July 6, 2015

Used the site for almost 3 years, was happy with the service UNTIL now, they said I used to much CPU and put me on the more expensive plan. Billed me $84 and held my domain ransom until it was paid. I have no website only email and get about 25-50 emails a day. If that overloads their servers, that ought to tell you something. Avoid at all cost..

When I purchases the packages, in refund time they are very helpful and after that they shows the actual situation. Webhostingworld asks money for every support. They do not have any security expert. My site was down for more then 3 months. Hackers are attacking my customers sites. Sites are too much slow.
Never buy any service from Web Hosting world. Waste your money. My package was RESELLER SUPREME.

I am beginning to see a pattern. One of my client's domains was simply erased, all the html/php files, e-mail accounts, ftp accounts, all of it just gone. They got the e-mail and ftp accounts back in a few minutes but not the files. They offered no explanation as to how or why it happened and got defensive when I asked to know how it happened so that I could avoid it in the future.
They apparently have no access (or don't know how to access) the basic server logs that would tell us the who, when and how of the failure.
They seem to just not care. Very bad if you want to give good service to your clients but can't get it from your provider.

I have registered for Linux Reseller Account. Once you request for money back they don't response for any of your tickets. Their service level decrease from 5* to 0*. They delete your product and make you wait. At last you will fed up creating tickets and you will not get any money from them and they don't even re-activate your product. Its all gone :(

I’m a customer of webhostingworld for more than 3 years now, with very positive experience. In this one year of hosting, I had only once an email problem, when their server was down. This at the very beginning of the subscription. Today I’m still a happy customer of them and I found this page with a nice review and wanted to leave a positive response. Congratulation for the great work and for keeping my business live.

Avoid them
January 27, 2016

I had several accounts with them. The price was low and that was my mistake. They closed the access to the customer area and access to the control panel of several of my accounts without warning. I contacted support and repeatedly told me that they will enable the accounts but nothing has happened till today. Lost several customers because of them. Avoid them is loss of prestige and money

The service they offer is totally bad, they started well, but now they are changing many things, raising prices, changing plans, in order to cancel a service you have to do it 15 days in advance, if you do not do it, they generate the invoice with a surcharge, that to start.

Second, they cancel the contracted service, if you ask for it and do not let it expire until its end date, if a person pays for a service if you request cancellation or cancellation, they should cancel but never delete the account permanently. Then if you want to reactivate the service you have to pay $ 25

They are thieves and scammers, the server fails more than the technical service, many problems with the server, it stops working many times and puts the page blank with errors.

I had a bad experience and I had to go.

I do not recommend it to anyone, no matter how much they tell you that they are cheap and that they offer quality.

Everything is a lie and they just want to take advantage and rob people by selling very bad hosting services, they are the worst servers and of poor quality.

My advice is to invest a little more money and buy something of quality.

What Andrew C mentioned just below, I am also facing the same issue. They just closed my account saying its usage is 30% and asked to pay 84$ immediately within a day. I am with this WHW for several years and without any courtesy they sent an email to pay the invoice and the account is closed. I never know that my site is down. I am not receiving emails and they stopped everything.

In their website they promote that they provide unlimited disk space, bandwidth, etc. If that iscase how the CPU usage is more? This is the worst behavior and they cannot treat a customer like that. Its something they need money and close the account and moving all the customers by force from Bronze to Gold immediately. If the 30% hit you move to Gold plan then why do you have Silver plan then?

Doesnt' get any worse than this. WebHostingWorld.net are not at all concerned if you site is down and you are losing business. They keep on changing servers and your site goes down, database gets disconnected, site goes down. They will disconnect service because you did not pay on due date even though due date not yet started. Very disgusting. Go find another host but never waste your time and money on WebHostingWorld.net.

Good service
February 5, 2016

For my WordPress hosted sites I have gone with Webhostingworld.net. I have used HostGator in the past but I find Webhostingworld.net provides the best packages for my needs.

They have the easy install of WordPress we expect from all hosting services but also a great uptime record and costumer support.

Very terrible
October 19, 2018

All my MySQL users got deleted by this Web Hosting World, and they don't want to admit it. Asking me to restore from backup? If only they smart enough to review their full backup, the full backup does not include MySQL users, but only MySQL db. Terrible!
