From best practice tips to templates and other e-commerce tips, you can count on some basic web design information that can help your service get off the ground. For those who are not experts in web design and are more into the web developing aspect, this is a huge helping hand so that you do not need to hire a separate web designer for your project.
- Customizable hosting package
The freedom to choose what you need for your service and take out the other items that you really do not need to prioritize is quite liberating for some. This setup is ideal for those companies that find it difficult to get a package that suits them just right. For some cases, this also comes out cheaper since you can take out what you do not need from the package and in turn, from the cost.
What’s Disappointing About El Motaheda?
✖ Not too user friendly website
It takes several minutes before you realize that El Motaheda’s website does not have web hosting packages for you. You search into all of their menus looking for prepared packages or at least a link to get a formal quotation from them but what do you find – nothing! This is a bad example for someone who claims to have a web design consultancy arm.
✖ Not so good performance
This is quite expected with such a low introductory price and unlimited hosting packages, but El Motaheda is not for those who want a rock solid performance. Although they do have their money back guarantee, if you are the type that doesn’t want to spend extra time trying things out, then it is best you look at other hosting providers out there.
The Bottom Line
El Motaheda is a living contradiction – they offer so many web services and yet they do not even have a good website to begin with. It may be best to go with some other hosting solutions provider.

For a week now, I’ve…
For a week now, I’ve been having some headaches in using El Motaheda. When I’ve first heard of them, I was quite impressed since they seem to offer everything like web designing and SEO copywriting. Since not every web host provider can offer this much, I decided to avail it. However, I’m really having a hard time utilizing the main website. What’s even worse is that I often get disconnected. I just hope that they’ll fix every issue now or else, I might have to switch another one.
