Question

cnet offers for web hosting

Feb 19, 2012 12:16AM PST

WebHostingHub "exclusive" offer to cnet visitors is the same as if you go directly to their website
InMotionHub exclusive offer to cnet visitors is based on an inflated rate compared to going to their site directly
The webhosting sites are lying and cnet is supporting their lie.

Answer
Rate for hosting renewal
Mar 25, 2012 2:27AM PDT

I used a CNET rate last year to sign up with InMotion. Has anyone tried to renew at anything close to the sign-up rate? It's double for the 2nd year, and my website is on hold right now. I don't want to cancel, but I don't want to pay that much, either.
Thanks!

If it was me

I'd ask them to see if they would let me continue another year with the rate I have. If yes, then great, if no, I'd download all my data and leave. It's easy to get another host, upload your stuff, and update your domain's DNS.
