Today, the hosting company is a well-recognized brand name in shared hosting solutions for small to medium-sized businesses and individuals. Unlike most other web hosts, FatCow offers only one simple hosting plan – the trademarked Original FatCow Plan, where customers get unlimited hosting at a very low price. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Editor’s Review on FatCow Hosting &lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;Just like every other web hosting services, there are both advantages and disadvantages in FatCow hosting services. In overall, we think FatCow hosting is a great web host and strongly recommend FatCow to those who are looking for cheap web hosting solutions. Listed below are the pros and cons of &lt;a href="http://www.webhostingschool.org/buy/fatcow.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;FatCow Hosting&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;FatCow is a very special web hosting company – the way they brought up their hosting plans, they way they design their website, the way they offer their hosting features – everything seems different in FatCow. Personally, I define being different and surviving for 10 years as remarkable!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3 style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.webhostingschool.org/buy/fatcow.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);"&gt;Get Fatcow Web Hosting Now&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a title="buy fatcow hosting" href="http://www.webhostingschool.org/buy/fatcow.html"&gt;&lt;img title="Get fatcow web hosting Now" src="http://www.englishsoftware.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/act-now_red.png" alt="Get fatcow web hosting Now" align="center" width="202" border="0" height="131" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; FatCow Hosting: Fast server + effecient customer supports! &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; I tested/searched deep (in web hosting websites and forums) on them before constructing this review on them. Amazingly, I found little or no complaints on FatCow’s hosting services and tons of good words on their hosting reliability. From what I read, FatCow ensures a fast internet download/upload to its servers by providing multi-Gigabit connections for maximum speed and provides redundant multi-Gigabit connections for maximum data transfer reliability. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Reliable backup policy &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The hosting company maintains daily server backups to ensure that data can be restored in the event that data is lost – which is not often seen in budget hosting. It goes one step further by providing a backup generator system to ensure that data is not lost in the first place. Fatcow maintains a round-the-clock monitoring system to ensure that its servers and infrastructure are running a peak performance and server contents can be reliably accessed 24 hours a day. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FatCow’s pledge: The HeiferCratic Oath&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Another plus point on FatCow is their outstanding after-sales service (via 24/7 toll-free telephone, email, and online chat). The customer support department is guided by sets of credo (known as the HeiferCratic Oath), where the company pledge to answer phone calls within 2 minutes, resolve issues on first contact or give a firm deadline for such, and maintain the highest standards of courtesy.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FatCow is online since year 1998! &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;All in all, a hosting company that had been operating for more than 10 years and remain strong in the market is a remarkable result and the research around the Internet convince me that they are a remarkable hosting company. Thus, I’m rating them an "A" here – if you ever hosted any websites with them, why not share your experience here? &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Unlimited hosting at a very affordable price &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;FatCow offers unlimited disk space, bandwidth, and addon domain. Okay, so what? Most web host provide unlimited hosting nowadays. But note this, not all unlimited hosting comes in such a low price. FatCow hosting cost only $3.67/mo* for 12 months subscription. The price tag is so low that even industry leaders like Bluehost and JustHost can’t beat them! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;If you are looking for a reliable yet affordable web hosting service, then I don’t see why you should look further than FatCow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What’s bad about FatCow? &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt; Does not provide different level of hosting services – Customers who wish to upgrade to semi-dedicated or dedicated hosting will need to switch to a new host.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Is FatCow Hosting Recommended? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;p&gt;Yes,  FatCow hosting is  recommended for those who are looking for cheap web hosting. FatCow has a long trackable history (more than a decade!) and we are strongly convinced that they are one of the best budget web hosts around. However, due to constraints of its business nature (limited hosting choices), we do not recommend FatCow for large business website.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;FatCow offer only one simple hosting package. You don’t get confused with too many choices and all you get is inside this all-inclusive hosting plan. Cheap, reliable, features riched, and to many, CUTE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3 style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.webhostingschool.org/buy/fatcow.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);"&gt;Get Fatcow Web Hosting Now&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a title="buy fatcow hosting" href="http://www.webhostingschool.org/buy/fatcow.html"&gt;&lt;img title="Get fatcow web hosting Now" src="http://www.englishsoftware.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/act-now_red.png" alt="Get fatcow web hosting Now" align="center" width="202" border="0" height="131" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:180%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Customer Reviews of Fatcow Hosting&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;10 Stars for FatCow!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"One, you make my biz legit.

Eight, Slim’s look is simply gorgeous. Nine, my clients can easily find me. Ten, I know you’re right behind me. Thanks!" &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right; font-style: italic;"&gt;– Veronique @ VeroProductions.com&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;No one beats the Cow!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"I host about 100 client sites with FatCow. Reliability is #1… nothing beats reliability in the web hosting world and no one beats the cow!" &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right; font-style: italic;"&gt;– Louis Brazil @ BrazilConsultingGroup.com &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Remarkable customer supports!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;“I am writing to tell you guys how satisfied I have been as a customer. Your customer service – especially technical support – is remarkably useful and friendly. Please keep up the good work and I’ll keep spreading the word!” &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right; font-style: italic;"&gt;– Tearsa @ terukoproductions.com.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FatCow = right choice for e-commerce site&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"FatCow is e-Commerce friednly! I’m able to sell oodles of products and it didn’t cost me the farm." &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right; font-style: italic;"&gt;– Slim’s cousin. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FatCow is definitely recommended!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"FatCow is  unique  in the sense that they are the pioneer of the one plan fits all hosting model. FatCow is a hosting company that is completely oriented for the new webmaster. If you are completely clueless when it comes to starting websites, FatCow is definitely on the list of suggested web hosts." &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right; font-style: italic;"&gt;– Dan @ TopWebHostingReviews.net &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Definitely one of the most dominant web hosting  providers!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"Fat Cow has taken the time to provide you with their standards and what they can offer when it comes to off you web hosting. With a team of experts, great speeds, great uptime, plus the special Fat Cow Coupon, Fat Cow is definitely one of the most dominant web hosting  providers in the industry." &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right; font-style: italic;"&gt;– Ian @ WebHostingBreak.com.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h4&gt;Jaw-droppingly easy to use. &lt;/h4&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Fat Cow's automated installations are jaw- droppingly easy to use. I create and sell  CMS/Joomla! websites using Fat Cow's unlimited  hosting plan and it has been a very profitable  experience with Fat Cow.  I do have to note that the overall speed of Fat  Cow's hosting plan leaves something to be  desired when it comes to load time for scripts -  mainly in Joomla! / MySQL installations. Otherwise  - Fat Cow is the only hosting choice that makes  sense to my business.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: right; font-style: italic;"&gt;- Matherarts.com From:  Prince Rupert, BC&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h4&gt;Great site, great price.. &lt;/h4&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;I really like the idea behind FatCow. Bringing a little humor into something that gets very monotonous for programmers like me. They have a great price, and I can rest assured that every customer I set up with them is well taken care of- 15 sites set up and not one complaint. I've even gotten set up with their affiliate plan now and made a few extra bucks just for passing them on.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-style: italic; text-align: right;"&gt;Phil Montero@WebHostingGeeks.com From:  Edgerton, WI&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3 style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.webhostingschool.org/buy/fatcow.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);"&gt;Fatcow - The Best Shared Web Hosting&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a title="buy fatcow hosting" href="http://www.webhostingschool.org/buy/fatcow.html"&gt;&lt;img title="Get fatcow web hosting Now" src="http://www.englishsoftware.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/act-now_red.png" alt="Get fatcow web hosting Now" align="center" width="202" border="0" height="131" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8069062710643427770-2116478172633923768?l=fatcow-hosting-review.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fatcow-hosting-review.blogspot.com/feeds/2116478172633923768/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fatcow-hosting-review.blogspot.com/2010/07/fatcow-review-best-shared-host-award.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069062710643427770/posts/default/2116478172633923768'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8069062710643427770/posts/default/2116478172633923768'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fatcow-hosting-review.blogspot.com/2010/07/fatcow-review-best-shared-host-award.html' title='Fatcow Review - Best Shared Host Award'/><author><name>Zheng Yong</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
