Overview:
iPowerWeb is one of the largest web hosts in the industry, which is good and sometimes bad for their customers. iPowerWeb hosts over 300,000 domains and they offer more space and bandwidth than most sites need. Supporting over 300,000 customers has had it's difficulties, especially when an Outage occurs. For the most part they provide a good stable service with fewer outages than other hosts. Our experience is that this is a good hosting provider for basic or non mission critical web sites.
