Web Hosting Marketplace RULES

Buyers And Sellers
Commenting / Bumping / Questions

Pm Sent / Thanks etc. types comment is NOT allowed
Any Traffic? / Can you Prove any Revenue? etc. type questions to the OP IS allowed
Bumps and glorified bumps (status updates) are once per 24 hours (unless otherwise stated in section rules)
Answering questions of potential buyers is NO LONGER considered a bump - This IS Allowed now
Thread crashing posts that may deliberately hinder a members ability to sell a domain is NOT Allowed
Educational comments that may help a newer domainer understand the industry and it's risks are questionable. (each situation will be evaluated separately)

Please adhere to the following regulations which will make your life, and the community's, ultimately better and easier:

1. Web hosting offers advertising unlimited disk space or bandwidth are not welcome. You may still offer "unlimited" features with any packages you wish to offer. I just urge any people looking for hosting not to be drawn in by such an offer.

2. Post only one web hosting offer or request per 7 (seven) days. If your original offer is still active and accurate after the 7 days, please BUMP the offer. Duplicate offers will be deleted.

3. In addition to the one post per seven days rule, each company can only have a single topic-starter during this period. This means no more than one post, per seven days, per company.

4. You may only have one active thread at a time. Your newest thread will be given preference.

5. Referral or affiliate links are not tolerated.

6. Absolutely no derogatory comments. Examples: "too expensive", "rubbish uptime". Imagine what you'd think if someone did that to you.

7. Do not promote your own sales in other's 'Hosting Offers' threads. "I can offer that but for less." Yet again, imagine what you'd think if someone did that to you.

8. There is a limit of one sales thread per marketplace forum per day per member. Gratuitous self *bumps* are limited to one per 24 hour period.

9. Correct grammar, and proper use of the English language is advised, and professionalism will get you a long way.

10. You cannot link to other forums / review sites in your post (except your hosting company's.)

11. Writing in a thread saying merely: "This is my hosting. insert link to another thread]" is not tolerated. Extensive and professional posts are required.

As is the case in all forums, I would like to remind you that these forums are also not excluded from the entire forum rules, which can be found here.

It is advised, if you are requesting hosting, that you provide as many details as possible.
For example: Space, Bandwidth, Features (emails/domains/subdomains/etc), Number of IPs. Type of hosting (dedicated/vps/shared/reseller/etc).
And perhaps even a budget.

If you are replying to these requests, please be polite and stick to the requirements that the requester has asked for. For example, if they asked for 5gb space, and 500gb bandwidth, please do not try to sell them 10gb space, and 1tb bandwidth for double the price. It is common politeness really.

If you are posting a hosting offer to attract customers, please (again) provide as many details as possible, such as server statistics and links to your Privacy Policies, Terms of Service, (+ any other important legal documents), and attempt to provide answers to commonly asked questions.

Also, It is suggested that you display a few hosting packages, varying in content, opposed to displaying everything you offer.
