Looking for a hosting company to partner with for your web site? Omega hosts is one of the hundreds of hosting companies out there offering
The Hosting Package
Omega Hosts offers two types of hosting packages – the Basic and the Advanced. For the Basic package, you will get 500 MB of disk space, 25 email accounts and 2 MySQL databases for $48 per year. Their Advanced package gives you unlimited disk space, email accounts and MySQL databases for around $65 per year.
What’s Great About Omega Hosts?
- Good uptime feedback
Omega Hosts maintains a relatively good uptime record. Aside from the regular maintenance upgrades, there are almost no reports of disruptive downtimes after deployment.
- Cheap rates
Omega Hosts is one of the cheapest in terms of the start up rates that you can avail of. Even if you need to commit to them for a year, the monthly cost is only a fraction of what other providers give their subscribers.
- Unlimited package
Their unlimited package gives you a lot of elbowroom for your web storage. You need not worry if you will run out of memory in your web application.
- Good value for the money
Not all cheap packages are good packages. With Omega Hosts, their packages are affordable and at the same time, the inclusions are very much reasonable. The disk space allocated is quite large for the money that you are paying.
What’s Disappointing About Omega Hosts?
✖ Not much is known about them
Do you know someone who has tried Omega Hosts? Do you know someone who knows someone who has tried Omega Hosts? I hear a resounding “No!” This is mostly because I don’t think a lot of people have tried them out. This can either entice you to discover something new or turn you off since you do not want to risk anything. I go with the latter.
✖ It’s a small company
One can say that not all small companies are bad but if you are looking for a stable, well-known hosting company, then by all means look for another one. If you are not willing to risk the reliability of your service, Omega Hosts is not the one for you. There are no guarantees given by the company and there are no strong testimonials asserting their claimed performance.
The Bottomline
Sometimes brand new companies need time to sort out their products and processes. If you are not on the look out for the newest web hosting service then I suggest you look for other web hosting solutions providers to give you a more reliable service.

Yes, of course, I’ve heard…
Yes, of course, I’ve heard someone who has tried Omega Host. That would be me. I can’t believe that not a lot of website owners know of Omega Host. I mean, this is so far the most affordable and reliable web hosting provider that I’ve ever tried. This will be tested though if I upgraded my website and if I have greater number of traffic which I’m expecting for in the near future. But I can say, it does its job well for my website, except for a few downtimes.
