Website
Hosting Ploys & Scams
Many unscrupulous companies
lure you in with the promises of high end
wealth and riches that your website can
bring. The fact is, they are the ones
getting rich while you wither away
lifeless and poor. When confronted with
your failure you spend more money on one
of their other get rich quick plans.
This life and death cycle
leaves you broke and drowning in a sea of
misery. Everyone promising to take you to
the sky but in reality taking you to the
cleaners.
You can't really accuse
these mainstream companies of running
scams, but they do seem to be severely
over stating the level of sucess you will
attain by using their products. The old
"Use us and get rich" scheme is
still alive in todays market.
Although we expect more from
big companies they seem to take the sales
approach of the old fasion street pedler
selling miricle tonics and cures. Making
the client belive one sip of their
hosting tonic will make the website
sucessful. But just as in the old west,
you get little more than a belly ache.
Companies also hide the true
cost of services behind "FREE
Hosting" signs and signups. Once you
signup for the so called free service,
you find your credit card being billed
monthly.
A much worse scenario forces
users to pay for a full year of hosting
at signup, later to find that each of the
features such as a shopping cart is an
extra charge.
It seems very common to see
hosting companies offering $2.99/month
website hosting but clients are paying
upwards of $50/month once they purchase
what they need.
This type of deceitful
advertising makes offering a legit
service much harder. Since the $7.95/moth
cost seems high compared to the others
offering less than half that price. But
the reality is the low price is genery a
hosting sales ploy to get you hooked.
If a company is not forth
coming about what you are buying how can
you trust them? They are self serving
looking only to get your money.
O.K. Bumblebee is out for
your money also, but we try to be open
and truthful about what we can provide.
Our system wont make you rich, you can't
build a site in 60 seconds or less and
you likely wont end up #1 in google.
BumblebeeWorks will not cure
the common cold, arthitis, old age or
even help you lose weight. But it will
help you run a sucessful online business
affordably and dependably.
We wont resort to the common
tricks used by our competitors and that
will likely cost us business. But when we
anser our phone each day, we know its a
client needing help and not one that is
upset because our system did not devliver
as advertised.
Be very careful who you use
for hosting. Know who you can trust and
what they can really do for you. It's
clear that most services are more flasing
in the showroom than when you get them
out on the street.
