If you have searched around for web hosting long enough (or currently are hosting your site with a low cost web hosting company) then you know how important uptime is. Not sure what uptime is? Uptime is the amount of time your web hosting account is online. The opposite is down time, meaning the amount of time that your hosting account is offline.
So, when we came across No Uptime Hosting we nearly fell off our seats laughing. If you browse through their site you will soon realize that this a parody site, poking fun at some hosts claims on the benefits and features that they offer. For example:
Hosting Package 1 (the I’m Poor Plan)
- 200kb of storage (that would be around 1-2 web pages)
- php 4, 5 and 6 (there is no PHP 6, yet)
- Host up to 6.8 sites (I’m currently working on a .75 site myself)
- and…Free Identity Theft
All this for only $2 per month.
Some other No Uptime hosting plans offer:
- Lots of storage (they don’t say how much, but it must be LOTS)
- 10kb of bandwidth
- 2 glow sticks
- 24/8 email support
- Ruby on Railroads
- Ruby on Boats
- Dedicated Support Geek
- Steve Ballmer
Some other pretty clever tag lines:
- Deleting your files since 1994
- Stealing your money since 1986
- We’re the reason you are in therapy
- Hosting your websites since 1969
So, if you really want a host with no uptime, signup today…they just need a signup link (the scary thing is they might get someone to signup).
