“After moving my Web site to Hostway almost two years ago I couldn't be more pleased. Being a very small business I use your Gold plan, a cheaper option, but loaded with more features than any other host I could find. My Web master says your support, even on a $9.95 a month account, is outstanding. Thanks for keeping us little folks on your priority list.”
