Does it cost anything to use FindMyHosting.com ?
No, FindMyHosting.com is always 100% free to use.

No, we are a free service that takes the information provided by hosting companies and matches it to visitors' search requirements. FindMyHosting.com does not offer any hosting services and is not in the web hosting business.

Is FindMyHosting.com associated to or connected with a particular hosting company ?
No, FindMyHosting.com is completely independent of any hosting company. We treat all hosting companies the same, small or large. FindMyHosting.com is a search tool that displays hosting plans that match your search criteria.

Are there any advertising or "hidden" paid hosting promotions on FindMyHosting.com ?
No, All the information found during searches on FindMyHosting.com is totally unbiased. We do not accept any advertising and we do not allow any hosting company to have any "paid advantage" over another hosting company unlike some other hosting directory web sites. On FindMyHosting.com the only advantage a hosting company can achieve is if they offer you what you need at the best price !

Does FindMyHosting.com guarantee the information provided by the hosting companies ?
No, It would be impossible for us to make any guarantees that the information provided by the hosting companies is absolutely correct. FindMyHosting.com presents in good faith the information that we receive from hosts. It would be impossible for us to verify every piece of information that each hosting company provides to us.

So, If there is no advertising how does FindMyHosting.com survive ?
Good question! Our business model is simple : generate revenue only when we create value for both hosting seekers and providers. When a customer uses FindMyHosting.com to locate a hosting plan that fits their needs and then proceeds from the FindMyHosting.com site to a hosting company to purchase a hosting plan, FindMyHosting.com receives a commission from the hosting company. Remember: FindMyHosting.com does not have any preference on which hosting company is selected. So, if FindMyHosting.com gets a commission on sales from hosts - does that make FindMyHosting.com biased? - Absolutely not! - There is no way that any host can buy a top spot in the search results. Also we don't have "recommended" hosts like many of the hosting directories do. These "recommendations" in the advertising based directories are sold recommendations - so they are hardly objective. We believe that by returning hosting plans that match your needs and providing a platform for hosts to compete that you will be able to make an educated choice on what hosting plan to buy. Try the other hosting directories - you'll see what we mean.

Are there any rules concerning use of FindMyHosting.com ?
Yes, our terms and conditions of use are found here. Using FindMyHosting.com is on condition that you agree to these conditions. We just would like you to understand that we are not a hosting company and that we can't guarantee the performance of any hosting company or the absolute accuracy of any hosting plan information they have included in FindMyHosting.com.

What is Hosting Assured ?
Hosting Assured is an integral part of FindMyHosting.com but is set up as a 2nd site. Hosts have the option, if they meet certain criteria, to become Hosting Assured. They must agree to a hosting code of ethics which relate to how they treat customers. If they maintain their status then they can display the Hosting Assured trust mark seal on their web site. Hosting Assured is not a certification of the Hosting Company - it only means they have indicated that they abide by the code of ethics and it provides a way for consumers to request a non-binding mediation to a problem. If a customer has a problem with a host that they cannot solve, then they can file a complaint via Hosting Assured. Hosting Assured will attempt to mediate a solution. Hosting Assured cannot guarantee the service of any host, or commit to mediate any problem to a final solution that is acceptable to the hosting customer. The focus of Hosting Assured is to find solutions to problems. If a host is unwilling to reach a solution then it will ultimately result in loss of Hosting Assured status All hosts Hosting Assured status is shown in FindMyHosting.com hosting searches For more information about Hosting Assured - click here
