New hosting rating system

The idea of ​​creating a reliable and authoritative rating of hosting providers emerged during the conflict Oversun and McHost. The date of registration of our domain was the date of disconnection of the provider McHost, whose clients we were and from which we received neither warnings nor apologies. What the young directors of Oversun and McHost, a woman or grandmother, did not share, no one knows, and by and large very few people are interested. The result is important - about 30 thousand sites, thousands of webmasters turned out to be "thrown" in a rather cynical form.

The main question that confronted us, paraphrasing the old adage - "where to go, where to go, so much so that after not to surrender ...". The task was not easy, reading the hosts' sites, it seems that they are all the best, the most flexible, reliable, everyone has competent 24-hour support and everyone has their own, and often even several of their data centers.

There were a lot of sites representing the rating of hosters according to user feedback. But, as it turned out, the data from these sites is almost impossible to use, and the representativeness of their ratings is not always completely clear. What do users of hosting and its technical support need? An old Unicsoid appreciates literacy and efficiency, a blog hosting client appreciates politeness and tolerance. But how to find out who votes “for” or “against” this or that particular host: a newcomer who did not understand the technical support employee, or a guru who faced a stupid student?

And we went on the principle of the developers of the housing code, in which, as is known, not residents, but square meters, vote. The analogue of these square meters on the Hosting Rate is the TIC (Yandex thematic citation index) and PR (Google PageRank) of the service user sites. You must admit that if a person’s website has a TIC of more than 500, while the Google PageRank of his site is 5 or higher, then the opinion of such a person is quite authoritative. Moreover, such a system virtually eliminates the possibility of cheating the rating.

As they say, we ask to love and favor www.hostingrate.ru , and at the same time we will check whether the habroeffect is so terrible :)
