Don’t Take My Word For It
I always strive to give my honest opinion in all guides, reviews and articles I write. Please do not take everything I write as gospel. I have been working on the internet since 2000, but I am hesitant to use a word such as expert because things change online so quickly.
My opinions derive from my own experiences and your own situation may be different from mine. Therefore, what worked for me may not work for you, and vice-versa.
My hope is that you find that all the information in this website hosting guide useful, but be smart and always be cautious. It is your responsibility to do your own research before clicking the buy button for any product and service.
Good luck,
Kevin
