THEY WILL RIP YOU OFF!!!! Boy, how I wish I had read some of the reviews for Thinkhost out there before being ripped off... I also wanted a socially responsible company to host my sites and found Thinkhost. I signed up for an account, even though I thought it was weird to have an automatic script following and pestering me with coupons and offers right from the first visit to their web site. So, anyway, I signed up for an account and quickly realized it was not a good company when their admin panel turned out to be so unfriendly. I couldn't even set up a database without submitting a ticket for tech support! I immediately requested a cancellation and they never sent me an email acknowledging the cancellation or anything to the email address I had posted as my email address. I realized they never canceled and refunded charges after a month, when I got my credit card statement, and when I contacted them they claimed they would not refund charges because they sent me an email in their “internal email system” with the cancellation form I needed to fill out!!! Of course, this is an email I would never get unless I went looking for it somewhere in the hostingoperations.com support site... I guess that is just one of their dirty tricks. I am still fighting this issue with my credit card. Now that I think about it, Thinkhost is probably not even solar powered, it must be a couple resellers with $$$ in their eyes, trying to rip people off and doing everything they can to avoid dealing with their customers, and not a solid company trying to build its reputation and customer service. Their tech support email address is no-reply@thinkhost.com, so you know what that means... I learned my lesson: NEVER TRUST A COMPANY THAT DOES NOT HAVE A PHONE NUMBER ON THEIR SITE. Of course, now I can see that I am not the only one being ripped off, so check other people's reviews and stay away from them. I have dealt with many web hosts over the years, but THINKHOST IS THE WORST EVER!!!<ul><li><label>Reliability</label>: 1</li> <li><label>Price Value</label>: 1</li> <li><label>Control Panel</label>: 1</li> <li><label>Customer Support</label>: 1</li> <li><label>Overall Rating</label>: 1</li> </ul> STAY AWAY FROM THINKHOST!!!!!

They are fast, reliable, and have good support. Isn't that what makes a good web host afterall? Pricing is good for what you get.

My WordPress blog and other PHP pages go down on a regular basis (generating an Internal Server Error). The tech support people do (usually) respond within a few hours and announce that they've rebooted the server and the scripts are working now. I can see this happening on a rare occasion, but this happens at least a couple weekends a month--and those are just the times that I catch it. If you only have HTML pages, they're probably fine. If you have a blog or PHP scripts, look elsewhere.<ul><li><label>Reliability</label>: 1</li> <li><label>Price Value</label>: 3</li> <li><label>Control Panel</label>: 1</li> <li><label>Customer Support</label>: 3</li> <li><label>Overall Rating</label>: 1</li> </ul> Yes, they have a great idea, but I believe they’ve over-reached and taken on more than they can support.
