Review : Slamdot Web Hosting

A post after a long time and that too a sponsored post. :P This is a sponsored ReviewMe post about Slamdot web hosting.

Slamdot is a new name in the immensely large web hosting market which aims to make web hosting simpler than ever. And it intends to do this with its innovative Web 2.0 control panel which will allow you to manage almost everything related to web hosting from domain purchase to hosting management.

The core of the Slamdot is its control panel. Instead of the cPanel you get a cool control panel. As Slamdot writes :

Slamdot takes the pain out of web hosting. Your account, billing, help desk, hosting control panel, and domain name management are all integrated into one dead-simple, web-based tool. That means you only need to remember one username and one password for everything.

Each hosting plan receives a feature-rich control panel directly integrated with the rest of Slamdot. Your control panel allows you to create email accounts, upload files, check web stats, setup subdomains and pointers, customize error pages, password-protect areas of your website and a whole lot more.

There are three plans available if you want to go with Slamdot. The plans start as low as $11/month and the highest plan costs $40/month. You can check out the details of the plans in the screenshot below. ;)

The Verdict

I cannot say anything about the uptime of Slamdot servers, because I have never tried it out. But on the whole Slamdot looks to me like any other webhost but with a little spicy and unique control panel.

Slamdot’s main customers will be beginners who have no idea about web hosting and are starting out with it. Slamdot is all about simplicity. One central place to manage everything.

The plans are too costly. $40 a month is too costly.

Although you dont have to go for Business pro, but I would say even 11/mo is costly, Nirmal.

I use 1and1 and they have pretty good service I am probably paying 3$/mo at the moment. and I have hosted their 4 or 5 sites in one account :) If you want to try that out visit http://www.1and1.com/?k_id=13474877 . One great thing about 1and1 is FREE PRIVATE Domain. You don’t have to pay for annual domain charges as long as you are with them.
