the hosting plan looks good.
But never forget that you pay for wat you get.

Where are you getting this?
because server may go down often or may have lots of errors and things like that.
So inform yourself before taking this plan.

More than enough for pictures(within reason)
I would still be careful with using them though and remember to do backups you never know

I personally stay away from any hosts that provide fake / little info in whois! usually run by a kid who doesn't want their parents to know!

I am unsure about their whois address but where is the whois phone number?
Look in webhostingtalk.com for their feedbacks

please read the small print. it is $3.95 per month if you pay for 36 months upfront. it is $5.95 per month if you pay for 12 months upfront, which is a little cheaper than some of the $7.95 pm offers I have seen. For serious webhosting it is always useful to follow domains4u advice above: 'Look in webhostingtalk.com for their feedbacks'.

Your not looking for "The Family Doctor" so I would give them a try. I would only try for 12mo.

Im not too sure, I personally dont trust any company that requires you to make a long term comitment to their service, 3 years seems like a very long time, atleast in the world of hosting.

Watch out for those guys. The server will be overloaded in no time (if not already). Probably lots of downtime. (let me guess....they say 99.9% uptime)

Google is your friend to search reviews on ace-host,

Google Search

I have read about this host in other forums as well, and they dont get encouraging reviews.

These are just my thoughts, as I have found on net. You might like to explore their support effectiveness.

I would recommend try at full rate for 1 month. then if you like it and reckon they'll be around come next year go for a 1 year package. Most problems tend to be identified when you setup your account.
