It's time for me to find a new web host, and I'm a bit overwhelmed by the selection. I need a Windows host. One provider that seems to stand out is MochaHost. Here are a few of the things that look amazing to me:


2 free domains for life. 2!!
MS SQL Support - Unlimited Databases
5,000 sites
.33/month
Unlimited everything (traffic, storage, domains, etc.)


Is MochaHost too good to be true? Maybe it is notoriously unreliable (despite their 100% uptime guarantee)? Are there other considerations I may be forgetting?

'Unlimited' is not possible to achieve, it's more of a marketing gimmick. Although seems to be mostly assumed it means basically they let you use whatever till you hit some of the many limits in their TOS (ie, you might be hitting their CPU usage early when using loads of bandwidth, for scripts usage, etc), and more or less is becoming a common "term".

The domains matter tie you to that hosting, instead of having the freedom to change to another(you can, but there can be more delays and issues) if the hosting starts to lose speed, etc.

I tend to find good feedback on Hostgator, Hawkhost, Liquidwebs. Just recently have not checked.

A couple of google searches don't bring up the most favourable reviews.

My experiences with webhosts are that you only find out the true value of them when something goes wrong - which invariably they do from time to time. Looking at the website support the only contact number mentions a callback. This would suggest when something does go wrong getting to speak to someone in person might be difficult.
