Great review! What are you using the site for, what type of stats is your site/sites currently using, in terms of bandwidth and disk space. Just curious more than anything!

Thanks for sharing your review and experience with them. By the way, how do you calculate your 10\10 uptime? do you use any monitoring tools? or you just experienced it yourself? All the best for your sites

Glad to hear about your good experience about byethost. I just remember the thread about them just was few days before "How do you pronounced byethost.com", it was pretty interesting.

I'll tell you about my experience with that byethost! I used them also at 2007 , at first I had the free plan and it wasn't bad, the most annoying thing was that I couldn't use .htaccess files, and their forced error pages which was very annoying anyway, I could deal with it, my site was small and i didn't need to buy anything as long I don't have to! after a month or so, and while the site became bigger, they started to suspend my account and put their full or ads and popups suspension pages in my site calming that I'm sending huge volume of emails which wasn't true! I open support ticket, and they take hours to reply! my visitors went away they've done this to me 3 or 4 times in one week, while I didn't send any mails from my site, and every time they reply to my tickets, sorry this was a mistake in our system! so I understood the message, If your site is growing you will have to pay! and I got interested at the premium the plans seemed ok, so I signed up annually at 1st month, I was trying to download a large file from my site, I tried to download it with IDM and i found that the download isn't resumable, I tried from a friend computer wasn't also resumable, asked a friend in US to try to download it and the same problem I opened support ticket, the reply was " we are using linux computers and we tried to download the file and it was resumable by us, recheck at your end" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! after the 4th month, and every time I get many visitors the site was suspended ( again for sending large volume of emails and that wasn't true! ) this happened again after a week! and they made me confirm that I won't send more emails while the volume of the emails was quite normal (1000 per week!) so, at the third time, they suspended the account and gave me a backup and terminated the account i paid for 12 months, only used 5! but to say the truth up time 9.5/10 support 8.5/10 reliability 2/10 costs 5/10 at the end, stay away from byethost if you are serious with your website!!

Hi there, Byethost free hosting is a pure scam. First you create your website and when it gets some traffic they send you emails to sign for a paid account. If you don't agree, then they suspend your free account with no evidence and redirect your domain to a parking or to spam sites to earn money. They simply steal all your hard work and your traffic. This is not a free hosting because they earn a lot of money at the expense of their old free account customers. As I said, pure scammers, so warning! up time 5/10 support 0/10 reliability 1/10 costs ?/10 (don't plan to sign for a paid account) Regards.

I used byethost for long time without any complaints.Never used any tools to check uptime but from my experience never felt my site opening slow or any downtime.Submitted some tickets and reply was within hours ,,for small and medium websites Byethost is perfect....
