LifeTime Host Review

"One Lifetime, One Plan". Offering hosting for just $99 FOR ETERNITY, that’s LifeTime Host triumph card. Cheaper than a year in most hosting companies, you don’t need to worry about renewal dates or anything. You will pay once in your whole life for hosting, and after that you even can give it to your grandchildren! Even if you are not really sure about this you can give it a try paying a monthly fee of just $4.95 a month. Even that is cheap.

But of course, what’s the point of paying for something, even if it’s a few dollars and just once in your life, if you won’t get a good piece of service?

LifeTime Host comes with all the features needed for your online business or personal blog. You have the possibility to create countless POP3 email accounts, protect them with a strong spam and virus filtering, using autoresponders and email forwarding, and access them via Outlook or a web-based interface.

About the hosting itself, you can use all the technologic paraphernalia available: ASP, Perl, Javascript, MySQL, AJAX, DNS management, dedicated IP address, etc. Of course if you are new to all this, you can count with the user-friendly Control Panel and File Managers. Even if you are a blogger and do not need databases and stuff, you have an application vault with over 500 apps, like polls, Blogger integration, counters, photo galleries, web chat and a huge etcetera.

 
So as you see, it’s not only about the price but the services. All this with a 90-days, full money refund guarantee.
