Recommended Expression Web Hosting

There are hosts and there are hosts, Tom Brunt is the kind of Web Host you can only dream of. He won’t charge new customers a penny till the site is up and running and the client is 100% satisfied as a web design client of mine can attest to.

“Tom is WONDERFUL! He gets right on issues. I also used their tech support which was fast and helpful. He hasn’t even charged me yet as his policy is not to charge until a site is up and running AND the client is 100% satisfied. Boy is his attitude refreshing. After 6
months of struggling… it all fell into place in about 2 days when I changed to his server with his help.”
