Rates offered are: Northrex: Bandwidth per GB per month :$0.24 per month Disk space per MB :$0.003 per month Newsita: Web Space price per MB : 0.001 USD Bandwith price per MB : 0.0003 USD What do you suggest, any feedback on them?

As I said in this thread so far I am rather pleased with Northtrex. What I really like is the rvskins for cPanel and Northtrex has them. If you choose Newista, please let us know how you like them.

I am with a different host, not with northtrex or newista. But if I have to choose, I would go with newista.

Have you read newista's Guarantee? "Coverage: The 99.9% uptime guarantee applies only to clients in good standing at the time of a service outage. " What the heck is 'clients in good standing'? Also, their TOS do not leave you much room to move, do they? I am always wary of webhosts that make so much noise about their right to suspend you "if in our opinion" you do something unacceptable. In essence, you have no leg to stand on if they provide poor service. On the other hand, their money back guarantee section is pretty unequivocal.

If you are only providing Reseller Accounts then your reseller could cause individual sites downtime becouse of wrong DNS Zone Editings, site creation with wrong specifications and such as this kind of resellers own faults and those are the not GOOD STANDING CUSTOMERS and cant ask for uptime guarantee becouse of his/her own faults.

Good grief. That's certainly a different interpretation of what I would consider 'good standing' when it comes to keeping up your side of the 'bargain' to provide 99.9% uptime. At the very least, you need to use plain language and avoid the possibility of multiple interpretations of the statements that you simply leave hanging in there, open ended. Besides, it's the whole of the TOS and various guarantees that is the problem in my view, and which would prevent me from signing up with this company. Sorry, but someone who uses such draconian TOS and disclaimers does not indicate to me a service that I can use with adequate confidence. As a further example of what I mean, here is another quote from your TOS -- one which I translate to mean: "beyond the few dollars you have paid me for services, I will not accept liability for anything - period!" So then: you keep your service, I keep my money and we're both happy

Strange. I would have thought "good standing" meant a client who has no outstanding invoices unpaid. For instance, a client who owes money to XYZ company, can not apply for a refund for XX.XX% downtime.. Simon

Yes ofcourse also Good Standing Customer include the described customers as you have. You know if a service describe the customers as "good standing" it does not mean that require the customers whom are kind/handsome/beautiful/friendly... but ability configure individual accounts correctly and pays the fee ontime... I do not think This meaning wouldnt have any harmfull inferences for both customers and providers.
