While there are certainly many good hosting companies represented on WHT, most of what is there is oversold, resellers and child-like adults running a business from their basement. Prepaying a year in advance for any plan is risky business unless you have a history of successful business with the vendor or significant credibility check from its established customers. Notice the quantity of hosting sites with designs from template monster. and no actual photos or real company information.

Unless that $5000 plan is being sold by a company with other profitable accounts and annual revenue above 5-10 million, I would steer clear. The numbers are the numbers, can't have 1000 megabit of usage every month for 12 months even on a 50+ gigabit commit from one of the largest carriers.. let alone space, power, multihomed bandwidth, a server and support.

My advice, buy what you need not what you think you need - from a reputable company in adult.
