    "Minimum Payment Term" - Yearly - $40.5/yr - for 100MB storage…, NO thanks ! LOL

  • Associatedfastwayhost @ fastwayhost.com on 26/09/2012 - 19:16

    For those who take advantage of this offer, I will double the storage space to 200MB!

  • rldowling03 on 26/09/2012 - 19:19

    For $5 a month I can go with another Australian provider and get 10GB storage and 250GB bandwith and pay month to month without any contract

    Sorry but this is not a deal in my eyes

      Hi rldowling03, my reply is below.
      I don't think you can find a host who can beat our offer now ;)
      If you remove the $3/month for the IP, that is like paying $0.40/month for the hosting!

      • rldowling03 on 26/09/2012 - 19:48

        Yes but your disk space and bandwith are WAY below competitors. I'd rather pay $8 for 100 times the storage space and 50 times the bandwith. It's a no brainer to be honest. The excess that people will pay with you for needing more bandwith will add up to be alot more over time

        • Associatedfastwayhost @ fastwayhost.com on 26/09/2012 - 20:05

          If you require more disk space and bandwidth, you can purchased AU02 or AU03. This offer is for all our Australian Hosting Plans.
          The difference between us and our competitors are that we allow you to host UNLIMITED domains within your limit, and we do not oversell.
          Anyone who purchase hosting from us and not satisfy with our network or server performance, we offer a 30 day no question asked guarantee.
          You have to be realistic here. If I offer you 10GB storage, 250GB and UNLIMITED domains, you will be sure to get a server that will go down daily.

        • rldowling03 on 26/09/2012 - 20:10

          But again if I went to different hosts I could still get 20 times more disk space and 15 times more bandwith for those same prices. Like I said I dont think this is a deal, but im sure someone will find it a deal. But I would prefer to go with a more established company. Also what is your ABN and do you have SLA's?

        • Associatedfastwayhost @ fastwayhost.com on 26/09/2012 - 20:13

          We have been in business since 1996 and no SLA since this is budget hosting branch. Our parent company's hosting plan cost a lot more.

        • rldowling03 on 26/09/2012 - 20:15

          And an ABN? You are selling Australian hosting so you surely must be based in Australia and have an ABN yes?

          Also been around since 1996, under the same domain name the whole time?

        • Associatedfastwayhost @ fastwayhost.com on 26/09/2012 - 20:16

        • Associatedfastwayhost @ fastwayhost.com on 26/09/2012 - 20:19

          Faswayhost Since 2002, parent company since 1996. We actually was an ISP under a different name before 1996.

  • Associatedfastwayhost @ fastwayhost.com on 26/09/2012 - 19:23

    How about I add a FREE IP in this deal?
    That is usually $3/month!
    Can anyone find hosting for $3.40/month with a Dedicated IP? If you do, please post it here.
    This will make this hosting offer E-commerce ready!
    Prices will stay the same and IP will be FREE as long as you keep your hosting.

    • rldowling03 on 26/09/2012 - 19:29

      Depends what you need. If you need offshore or Australian. Its going to be expensive regardless. Maybe a VPS would suit your needs rather than an actual dedicated server

    • scotty on 26/09/2012 - 21:19

      @steve13 — looks like your audience is mostly in Europe? Take @Elijiah's advice — check the WebHostingTalk's forums. Especially look out for cheap VPS from some Germany and France data centres like Hetzner or OVH — they are the big budget data centres in Europe, sells cheap dedicated servers and VPS.

      With your site, a VPS would be sufficient, and less things to worry about then a dedicated server.

  • Associatedfastwayhost @ fastwayhost.com on 26/09/2012 - 19:26

    Hey steve13, come to our site and have a live chat with us, we may be able to help you.

  • c64 on 26/09/2012 - 19:40

    the plans are a joke? 100MB disk space, 5GB data transfer? are the servers pdp-11s?

    $20/year = 5gb disk, 100gb data http://zuver.com.au/web-hosting

    • Associatedfastwayhost @ fastwayhost.com on 26/09/2012 - 19:45

      Hi mattgal,

      I have upped my offer to 200MB space, 5GB data, and a FREE Dedicated IP.
      Server located at Equinix Sydney, Server is 2 x XEON 5620 8 Core with 16GB RAM.
      How many domains does Vuzer allow you to host? 1!
      The difference between us and Vuzer is that they limit you to 1 domain and don't expect you to all allocated resources. We do not oversell and expect you to use up ALL your allocated resources.
      If your sites are small, you can host up to 10 to 20 with our hosting packages, or even more!
      How much does Vuzer charge for Dedicated IPs? $3/month? $4/month? You get 1 FREE with this offer.

    The deal posted yesterday beats your deal easily…http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/80562.
    5GB storage, 100GB transfer.

    200MB in this day is not enough particularly for an eCommerce store that may have many products. 5Gb would be easily chewed up with a reasonable amount of traffic.

    • Associatedfastwayhost @ fastwayhost.com on 26/09/2012 - 20:27

      Hi Aussie89,

      This offer is not for everyone.
      For those who do not require a lot of bandwidth and storage, I think this will be an ideal plan.
      We are testing the budget hosting market as we specialise business grade hosting.

  • spare13 on 26/09/2012 - 20:52

    No one (1% of people might have a legitimate reason) should need a dedicated IP address when they are using hosting at the very budget end of the market.

    • Associatedfastwayhost @ fastwayhost.com on 26/09/2012 - 21:01

      Hi sparky13,

      A lot of people want to start their own online store but with limited budget.
      This deal will be great for them as IPs these days are not cheap any more. ;)

      • spare13 on 26/09/2012 - 21:04

        And in very limited supply, which is why they should only be allocated when absolutely necessary.

        • machej on 26/09/2012 - 21:58

          IPv6 will be the default soon.

        • spare13 on 26/09/2012 - 22:58

          Once it's supported. Internode is the only ISP currently supporting it in Aus (last I saw). cPanel still doesn't support it and is a ways off etc etc.

  • Rodgort on 26/09/2012 - 21:05

    You guys really need to hire a PR guy.

  • ozmk on 26/09/2012 - 21:09

    why those guys put Australia hosting location as a selling point?

    There is make no difference wherever the hosting company location, nowadays almost all good hosting company have utilized the cloud technology and CDN distributed system (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_delivery_network)

    Therefore, the key question I would ask is - has that hosting company implemented some latest technology yet?

    • scotty on 26/09/2012 - 21:12

      Most CDN don't handle dynamic content. Implementing "CDN" is also beyond what typical hosting company can offer, as it involves the software stack of your site.

      Unless you go through the route of CloudFlare, which has its own problem…

      • machej on 26/09/2012 - 21:59

        CloudFlare are great now that they have a datacentre in Sydney.

        • scotty on 26/09/2012 - 22:02

          They are great while they work. I used to run one site behind it in 2010-2011, and constantly suffering 50x errors (while my visitors have no problem connecting directly to my site).

        • ozmk on 27/09/2012 - 16:48

          my 5 sties are working flawless with CloudFlare since late last year.

          Also I'm using MaxCDN which I got an offer to pay $1 for first 1,000 GB (1 TB)bandwidth. it's working great so far.

    Seriously?

    I hope you don't pronounce that how I pronounce it.

  • ozmk on 27/09/2012 - 16:44

    … well for $3/m, I think I will stay with HostGator as they offer much better service with all of features this guy offered PLUS much more… I received an email a few weeks back, they are now offering 25% discount for all new sign up with the discount code "30SPET2012" the web hosting package will be $2.96/month after the discount but don't forget to apply the discount code before you submit the order, the offer will be ended 30/9/2012 - http://HostGator.com
