Web Hosting Unleashed is currently running a contest, where you can win an Xbox 360 game console by writing reviews of your current web hosts during the month of March. Your reviews will be verified by WHU to ensure its authencity (see their review policy here). On 1^st of April (let’s hope it is not April fools), WHU will randomly award one lucky reviewer with an Xbox 360 console + 20Gb hard drive.

Too bad I will be very busy “soon” for up to three months — won’t be able to play even if there is one right in front of me! Oh wait, maybe just for 5 minutes…

While Xbox itself has little to do with web hosting, I think I might also need to announce that Web Hosting Unleashed is a new sponsor of this site, which is obvious with its nice looking blue banner on the sidebar. Just to make it clear :)

Ben at WebHostingUnleashed has written an excellent article, giving us 9 Tips For Not Getting Screwed By Your Web Host. So far I have counted myself lucky that I have not been “screwed” in any way by web hosting companies, but I have read countless bad stories on Internet and web-hosting related forums. As I have previously blogged about Lunarpages’ article on why web hosts suck, hopefully Ben’s article can help you to choose the web hosts that suck less.
