If you are new to website hosting or just starting to blog and want to host your own domain name, cheap web hosting is the one we usually look for our first web host. This is the same in my case where I subscribed to 3ix cheap web hosting services.
When I had decided to take blogging seriously late September 2007, One major concern that I had dealt with was choosing which web hosting company to host my blog. Of course as a beginner back then, I looked for companies that offer reliable Cheap Web hosting.
3ix Cheap Web hosting experience
- Offers Cheap Web Hosting! As a newbie in the blogosphere, I don’t want to spend much on my hosting plan as of that time. So with a $1 per month , I can’t help but sign up to their plan.
- They offer a 30day money back guarantee, no questions ask.
- LIVE customer support, real person, not a robot lol
- Fast activation. Upon payment, my account is activated instantly. Even the upgrade takes no waiting time after my payment has been made.
I was initially subscribed to the EXCITE plan and just today, upgraded to EXTRA plan. Based on my experience with them, though considered short, you can consider 3ix as a starter cheap web hosting service for your blog.
As for reliability, up and downtimes, all I can say is, you’ll get what you pay for. 
There are several companies out there that offers cheap web hosting, will update this blog if ever I get a reliable feedback.

Hi Amy… I came into this blog by a chance…I was using 3ix for my conpany site and it was quite ok… then for my friends site I used 3ix..His site is down for 14 1/2 hours… right now… still not up….. so this is not for business… but for family and friends may be…
ow thats sad to hear..
good thing this site is not experiencing the same (I guess?)…
you better talk to their customer service regarding this…
I have started with them 2 days ago and my pages take 1 min. to load..lol..with almost nil stuff on site….
they are making me crazy…
guess, i am unable to even upload complete site till now because of SUPER SLOW connection speed.
anyone knows if they really pay ur money back if i go for money back guarantee…
i paid with credit card…using 2checkout
look at my page footer, there is still a logo of powered by 3ix
the longest down time I had experienced with 3ix was about 15hrs
after that, less than a minute, maybe one every 3months
it is always a risk but I took the risk inspite of the bad comments…
I had seen comments repeatedly done on different review sites, I think they are paid bad reviews… my idea
Hi Amy,
I am researching about this hosting company and reached here. I found lots of bad reviews about 3ix but I found a nice review on your blog.
Are you still using this hosting? I am working with a company and I wish to create couple of blogs of my personal use. It will be great if you share your experience with me.
I am bit confused about few negative reviews about 3ix hosting.
Thanks in advance.
I will never ever ever use 3ix again! I have hosted with them twice and had problems both times… so much trouble that I had to move my site to another host to have peace of mind… 1 minute for the site to load was just the start of my troubles…
thanks so much…
just give me some feedback on their service after a month
just got my hosting from there and register under your referral.
for almost 3 months, this site was hosted for free with 20gb of webspace and 300gb of monthly bandwidth.. but nothing more secure than paying for your site’s hosting . You don’t rely on anyone and you don’t have to worry that much since you pay your host to do their job.
oh by the way, that free host where techiegirl used to be hosted already shutdown.
why do you have to pay for 12/yr if you can get it for free?… I know a site who can host your site for free with 100GB Bandwidth and 200MB Webspace.
