Uptime & Reliability

Great Reliable Hosting

The hosting with this company is very stable.  This is not surprising since Century Link is a telephone company that runs data circuits as their primary service.  They have a 99.9% uptime guarantee, but in reality the stability is likely considerably higher than that.

Features

Quite a Few Different Options

You can choose from a number of different hosting packages that are able to meet the needs of just about any customer.  They have options that focus on mobile hosting, business hosting and more.  You can also choose hosting options that include some SEO perks and other benefits that will help your site to perform better.

The hosting will come with free migration from another company, fast response times and great technical support.  They can also help you to get your site’s online store up and running with automatic updates to ecommerce sites like Amazon and eBay.

Overall this hosting offers quite a few features that aren’t available with other hosting companies.  You are limited to their cloud services, but for many people that will be just fine.

Support

Good Overall Support

The support with this company is quite good overall.  One thing that some people will have an issue with is that Century Link has so many other services that it can be confusing to get the actual help you need.  Fortunately, most people won’t need any tech support since the services are quite stable and reliable.

Pricing

Fair Prices

The prices with this company start as low as $6.99 per month per website.  This is for their mobile services and really isn’t a normal web hosting option.  If you want more traditional hosting services it starts at about $10 per month and goes up as high as $100.  It is important to note that the prices are all per site per month, so if you are someone who runs multiple sites it could get expensive.

For what you’re getting, the prices in each package are quite reasonable.  The hosting through this company has helped many businesses keep their sites running smoothly without breaking their budgets.

Summary

Nice Option for Some Customers

This hosting provider is certainly not for everyone.  If you want shared hosting, dedicated servers or things like that you will need to go to another provider.  For those who just want good stable cloud hosting, however, this is a good option to consider.  They are an especially good company to consider if you are already using one or more of Century Link’s other services.

Pros:

• Very Stable Hosting
• Run by Well-Established Telco

Cons:

• Only Cloud Hosting
• Prices are set Per Site Per Month
