Would you pay $50 a year to get the “privilege” to post on some forums?
I would like to say the folks at Web Hosting Talk are pretty darn bonkers, but they have people actually paying for it. I can’t blame them because if people were willing to give me money for the same thing - I might have to do it. Do Web hosting people really have that much money to burn? People there are other Web hosting forums out there! Need a list of them?
Go check out HostingHoopla.com!
Come on, give me some feedback - are people really that desperate for a t-shirt or are they just not aware that there are better hosting forums out there? Is Web Hosting Talk desperate for money?
I know they have been resold on a few occasions but they seem popular - why do they need to stick it to their members without giving much more of a perk than just a free t-shirt?

Well, never say never. I had a few free hours yesterday, and an idea in my head so I figured I might as well carry things out and see how they go. For those of you who thought that Hosting Hoopla was long and gone - think again. I have brought it back, but this time things are going to be a little different.
I want Hosting Hoopla to the like an appendix to the Web hosting industry. I don’t mean that organ that you don’t really mean, I mean an appendix like that thing you find in the back of the book. Instead of having dozens of hosting related Web sites bookmarked - just bookmark Hosting Hoopla and you will have them all in one place.
Drag and drop Hosting Hoopla into your favorites, and it will be the one bookmark you need to get you through your Web hosting related links. I like making things simpler for folks, and this one is brain dead easy. Of course, that is where you come into the picture. If you are going to be using it - I want to make sure you are getting the links that you need. If you have any suggestions to make, I have added a nice shinny button for you to click at the top of the Web page to submit your own favorite hosting links.
Over time the Web site might become more segregated, once the links list gets too big for one Web page to hold. I am ready to take any and all suggestions on this project though, because it is not only for me to use - it is for you to use as well. Tell me what you want to see here and I will do my best to get it added on.
Hosting Hoopla is back, and I have a feeling it will be better than ever as 2007 is right at our doorstep.

Even though I am not a Web host, I have nothing but good to say about DemoWolf.com and the services they provide. A few weeks back we teamed up via WebHostingShow.com to deliver folks some free (and awesome) flash tutorials to watch and learn from. Now it looks like they have updated themselves with a much more professional look and design.
(Nova Scotia, Canada) - DemoWolf (www.demowolf.com) today announced the launch of their newly redesigned website, including a new logo/branding, new shopping cart system, new Live Chat system and revamped customer Forums.
Coinciding with the new website launch is the announcement of dramatically reduced pricing on most tutorial series. All tutorial series are marked down to sell quickly, particularly the Voice tutorials. Prices have been slashed by as much as 45% off the Voice tutorials, making them affordable for even the smallest hosting companies. These new prices will be in effect for the month of October 2006 only.
DemoWolf now has Live Chat available as another means of communicating with their visitors and customers. Simply click on the Live Chat icon that exists in the right margin of all pages in www.demowolf.com, and be connected directly to a sales/support representative.
The DemoWolf Forums have also been redesigned, but not just in looks. Many forums have been consolidated, and new forums created, as DemoWolf gears up for the release of new products and applications. These forums are located at http://forums.demowolf.com.

HostingHoopla.com is now ad free! I’ll be the first to admit, my idea of creating an aggregated resource for Web hosting news and links hasn’t exactly taken off as I thought it would. I fault this mainly on the fact that the entire Web hosting industry is behind about two versions on the Web. While others look forward to Web 2.0, the hosting world is back on Web .05 Beta Release.
So go check out HostingHoopla.com and see my cheap attempt to draw in a few more eyeballs and get a few more people hooked on all the hosting information it provides.
