NameHero NameHero: A Reliable and Top-Tier Web Hosting Provider with Fantastic Customer Support

NameHero is a fantastic web hosting provider and I cannot recommend them enough! Their customer support team is top-notch and always willing to go above and beyond to help you out. Even though I had a few hiccups along the way during the website migration process, the support team was able to resolve everything quickly and efficiently.

One thing I really appreciated about the experience was how much I learned about web hosting and website migration. Through the help of the support team, I was able to gain a deeper understanding of the technical aspects and really feel confident in my ability to do migrations on my own. It was also really helpful to see some of the issues I might encounter with email systems, which has helped me prepare for future domains.

As for the hosting itself, I cannot fault it at all. The website speeds are incredibly fast and reliable, with very little downtime since I've started using the service. The control panel is also really easy to use, and has all the features I need to manage my websites effectively.

Overall, I would say NameHero is a great choice for anyone looking for a reliable and high-quality web hosting provider. With excellent customer support and top-tier hosting features, NameHero is a name you can trust when it comes to website hosting.

NameHero Namehero Hosting Review: Impressive Server Speed, Decent Customer Support, Room for Improvement

I recently signed up with Namehero for my hosting needs and have to say, overall it's been a great experience. The server speed is truly something to behold - it's a rare instance when I've experienced that kind of speed on a hosting platform. There were a few issues at the outset though, which put a bit of a dent in my initial enthusiasm.

One of the issues was with the linode. When I bought the package I was hoping to get one thing but was delivered another. This was obviously a problem for me, but I got in touch with them and they were quick to fix it. Great!

Their customer support is truly decent, though, there are some issues that need ironing out. For instance, they don't have an online chat option like some other hosting companies do. Instead, they rely on a ticket system which is a bit of a drag. You have to create a ticket and then wait patiently, not knowing how long it's going to take for them to get back to you. I wish they had an online chat option as this would make things a lot easier.

On the whole, though, I'm pretty satisfied with Namehero. If they could just sort out the ticket system thing, I might actually be ecstatic about my experience! But, as it stands, it's a great service, and I highly recommend them.

NameHero NameHero Website Hosting: A Positive Experience with some Hiccups

I recently had an experience using NameHero for my website hosting needs and though overall positive, there were a few hiccups along the way that I thought were worth mentioning.

First off, when I was about to checkout on the summary page, I noticed a bug with the javascript that handles the updating of the total amount for domain registration. I had initially signed up for various features including ID protect, DNS hosting, and email forwarding, which brought my total to just over $18. However, I later decided to remove email forwarding from my order, yet the total remained the same. It wasn't until I changed my billing cycle from 1 year to 3 years and then back to 1 year that the total finally updated. It definitely made me a bit nervous since I was about to entrust my clients' websites with their services, and I expected the site to work flawlessly.

Unfortunately, my experience wasn't perfect, since I also noticed that page loads were a bit slow, taking upwards of 5 seconds to load. Although I attributed this to the pandemic and the fact that I was completing my order from overseas, I still expected quicker load times.

Despite these two issues, I still find NameHero to be a solid website hosting option. Their pricing is competitive and their customer service is top-notch, always being quick to respond to any concerns I had. I'm just hoping that moving forward, any small bugs or issues I encounter are smoothed out promptly to provide a seamless experience.

NameHero Exceptional Customer Support: My Experience with Namehero

I've been a satisfied reseller customer at Namehero for a while now, and every time I need help, their support team comes to the rescue promptly and effectively. I've never experienced a company that values their customers as seriously as Namehero does. Their customer support is simply TOP NOTCH, and I'm grateful for that. I can confidently say I will remain a lifelong customer of Namehero as long as they are still around. Not only do they "fly above the competition," but they also fly circles around them. It's mind-blowing, and I have to commend them for that.

The company's owner, Ryan, has an endless amount of content on YouTube that is accessible to anyone. Even when I had simple questions, their staff never treated me like I was unintelligent or insignificant. Instead, they demonstrated genuine care and went above and beyond to provide the assistance I needed. Their service delivery is impressive, and I want to appreciate them for that.

If every company in the business world was run with this level of customer-oriented focus like Namehero, it would undoubtedly be a much better place. Kudos to you Namehero! You're doing an amazing job, and I'm appreciative of the good work you're doing. Keep up the good work, and you'll keep soaring higher. Thank you for being exceptional!

NameHero Top-notch Customer Service: My Experience with NameHero Hosting (April 30th, 2018)

I'm legit excited to share my journey with NameHero, my new web design and hosting provider. Thanks for the hookup! (April 4th, 2012)

So, it's been a hot minute and I've been using NameHero for a few weeks now; but, like my time with Google, I've come to the realization that I am not a fan of Wordpress. Like, at all. It's straight up not manageable for your girl over here.

But, let me just say that Ryan Gray and the NameHero squad? Whew, they are some of the best when it comes to customer service and support. Unfortunately, even with their help, I've decided to bid adieu to my NameHero account.

I'm all about that Drupal life when it comes to CMS, so I did my due diligence and found another company that came highly recommended by Drupal experts. And ya girl needs to take some time to learn the ropes before I hop into the web design and hosting reseller game with the new company.

However, for those of you that are loyal to WordPress, Drupal, or Joomla, let me make it clear - NameHero is the move. Their customer service and support are unparalleled and Ryan and the rest of the squad truly care about their clients's success.

Yours truly, Sam Post. April 30th, 2018.

NameHero Nameheros' Customer Support is Top Notch! Thank You Mark & Team!

I had never, ever heard of Nameheros until my webdesigner told me about them, and I gotta say, I was freakin' hesitant at first. I mean, there are SOOOO many companies out there, right? And in my business, we gotta deal with a lot of them. But lemme tell you, man, Nameheros' customer service and support is off the chain! For realz! I've dealt with a handful of their tech support peeps, and lemme just say, they're all sooooooo awesome!

Can I just take a minute to give a HUGE shout out to Mark? Dude has helped me out soooooo many times, and lemme tell you, he goes ABOVE AND BEYOND what ya would expect from anyone at Nameheros. Honestly, the guy's the real MVP in my book, and I don't even know how I'd have gotten through the tough times without him.

But seriously, every time I've had a problem or a question, the Nameheros team has been soooooooo polite and never made me feel stupid or anything. And let's be real here, I've asked some pretty dumb questions. But they never made me feel dumb!

Honestly, folks, this is a big freakin' deal. Like, I don't know how many other companies out there would be as cool and helpful as Nameheros. I'm definitely gonna be a lifetime customer, and I'm gonna tell anyone and everyone to use their services. Thanks, Nameheros, for all your help, and thanks especially to Mark! You guys rock my socks off!

NameHero Disappointing Experience with Namehero LLC: Slow Webhosting, Horrible Domain Service, and Frustrating Email Issues

Namehero LLC is one of those companies that I wouldn't give two cents for. My experience with them was downright disappointing. I had Webhosting, domains, and emails with these guys but everything went south in every way imaginable.

First things first, their Webhosting service is painfully slow. It's by far the slowest Webhosting I've ever used in my entire life. Worse still, they don't offer SSL, which is a no-brainer in this day and age. If you want to buy SSL, it costs an arm and a leg. My other major gripe with their Webhosting service is that it's impossible to use WordPress. They seem to have incompatibilities with MYSQL and you have to use PHP 7.0 to make it work, which is frustrating since many themes and plugins work only with PHP 8.0.

Now let's talk about their domain service. These guys use a company called internet.bs. I'd say their name perfectly sums up the kind of service they offer. They're just horrible. They're fond of faking emails as if they're coming from ICANN, which basically simulates delays. Transferring a domain with Namehero LLC is a nightmare. For a regular transfer, you need to go to the previous register, remove the lock, and get the authorization code. Then go to the new register and start the transfer with the authorization code. After that, you need to go back to the previous register and agree to the transfer, and you're done, right? Wrong! With Namehero LLC, you have to wait for internet.bs to release the domain, which often takes more than five days after.

Lastly, let's talk about their email service. This was probably the most frustrating aspect of my experience with Namehero LLC. Their server keeps blocking my IP number from home, which means I can't access my emails unless I use a VPN. I've called them three times to unblock my IP, but the problem persists. It's just mind-boggling that such a fundamental issue is left unresolved for so long. And if that weren't enough, they have an extremely rigid policy on privacy. They let you send emails only if they approve of the subject, and if somebody sends you an email on a possible scam, they won't let you reply. They also don't let you send more than 50 emails in one hour, which is simply unacceptable.

And to top it all off, they have a very dark way of doing business. They like to ask for copies of ID and credit card, which they have no authority to ask for since they're a private entity. And don't even get me started on how they store all these copies. It's just ridiculous.

My advice to anyone thinking of using Namehero LLC is to steer clear of them. They're a disaster waiting to happen. If you don't believe me, just go to the BBB and read their claim history. It's not a pretty sight.

NameHero Avoid NameHero: Unreliable Billing and Poor Customer Service

I have been using NameHero for over a year now and overall, I had no complaints. However, things took a turn for the worst when it was time for my renewal.

To begin with, their business practice of doubling the yearly fees in the second year did not sit well with me, but I kept using their service, despite being unhappy with this price increase. When I received my invoice and made my payment on 8/16, everything seemed to be in order. However, on 8/19, I was charged again, not by my own doing, but through NameHero's own automatic payment system. This caused alarm bells to ring in my head and I immediately contacted their customer service for assistance.

The person I talked to created a ticket and assured me that someone would contact me within half an hour. However, no one called me back, even after four hours. So, I reached out again and was then informed through a note in my account that they had given me a credit of $145, which could be used for future services, instead of issuing me a refund. This came across as totally unacceptable, as I didn't want credit, but my money back. As the payment had gone through PayPal, I sought their help to rectify the situation.

Thankfully, PayPal was able to get the ball rolling and after what seemed like a miracle, the credit NameHero had issued earlier, turned into an actual refund. This whole experience was a major source of frustration and made me wish that I had switched services before all this chaos ensued.

My relief was short-lived, however, because soon after, on 8/24, despite having paid them twice, my services were suspended due to "non-payment". This was shocking and infuriating, given the fact that this had all been cleared up just a few days prior. I had to scramble to find a solution to this, which was not easy. When I reached out to their customer service, all I got was a vague reply - that the billing issue would be taken care of during business hours, with no indication of when those hours are. When I tried to discuss the matter with the chat representative, they refused to engage and asked me to realign the ticket and wait for the "billing business hours". I am still waiting for them to get back to me on this.

All in all, I am very disappointed with the way NameHero has conducted their business lately. Their customer service is not up to the mark and there is always the chance that there will be an issue with their billing process. I am currently trying to get a full refund for their services that they didn't even render and will switch to another provider as soon as possible. I advise others to avoid using NameHero at all costs, if they don't want to be costed.

NameHero NameHero hosting review: Poor quality and customer service - avoid at all costs!

My experience with NameHero has been a complete disaster. I have been using their services for the past 12 months, and I have given them a 0 rating. This company is nothing but a bunch of scammers who are fooling people by selling the same Hostinger VPS to their customers. The VPS plan that I purchased from them was not up to the mark, and when I asked for a refund, they simply blocked my backup access, leaving me helpless and stranded.

I am not able to get the backup of my client, which is causing a lot of trouble for me. When I raised this issue with NameHero, they tried to force me to buy their VPS package for another month at a whopping $89. They have promised me a backup of just 2 GB, which is clearly not enough.

Overall, I would not recommend NameHero to anyone. The quality of their services is extremely poor, and their customer support team is unresponsive and unhelpful. If you are looking for reliable and trustworthy hosting services, then I suggest that you look elsewhere.

In conclusion, my experience with NameHero has been nothing short of a nightmare. The company is simply not worth your time or money. Save yourself the trouble and avoid this hosting provider at all costs.

NameHero NameHero Review: Reliable hosting but needs improvement in customer service, video tutorials, and refund process

NameHero is a good site for those who are looking for reliable hosting services. However, there are certain things that need to be considered before signing up with them. Starting with their customer service, I must say it was great, but things started to change when I decided to buy a template. The staff's response was not clear enough, and it left me wondering where to seek help. This made the experience less enjoyable than it should have been.

Furthermore, the website's video tutorials are not detailed enough, which may cause confusion and a lack of understanding of the important information needed for success. This can be frustrating for those who are not tech-savvy. Therefore, NameHero should ensure that their video tutorials are comprehensive, clear and concise for everyone to comprehend.

One other issue that I experienced was that they were a bit slow in giving refunds for lack of service. This could be frustrating for those who are facing technical difficulties and need a timely solution. However, I must say that they eventually provided the refund, but the delay caused some inconvenience.

Despite these minor issues, I am still recommending NameHero due to their reliability in terms of hosting services. With a few tweaks in their customer service and video tutorials, they could provide an even better user experience for their customers. Overall, it's a good hosting site for those who need to host their website with a reliable and affordable service provider.

NameHero Stay Away from NameHero Web Hosting - Terrible Experience and Unreliable Service

I had a terrible experience with NameHero (namehero.com). It was really bad. They did not deliver on the services that I paid for. The worst part about it is that they tried to blame their own products for not working together. It was really frustrating because I just wanted to get my website up and running.

After a while, I decided to close my account and move on. That's when they started making excuses as to why they couldn't issue a refund. At first, I thought it was just a misunderstanding. But then they went too far and disputed the refund with my bank. It was really shady and unprofessional of them to do that.

I hope that others do not have to go through what I went through with NameHero. I would not recommend them to anyone. They are just not reliable or trustworthy enough to handle anyone's website needs. It's really too bad because there are so many other companies that would do a better job.

Overall, I had a terrible experience with NameHero. They did not provide good service, made excuses, and were not helpful when I needed them to be. It was really frustrating and disappointing. If you're looking for a web hosting company, I suggest you look elsewhere.

NameHero NameHero Hosting Review: Unclear Subscription Policies, Top-Notch Service

So, I recently signed up for NameHero hosting services, and while I am happy with the service quality, there are some things that are unclear to me. Namely, the hosting contract. I did not see anything about subscribing prior to making payment, but it seems like I have been signed up for a subscription without my explicit consent.

This has me feeling a bit uneasy as I cannot find the details to either the contract or subscription. Now don't get me wrong, I do want to keep using NameHero hosting services, but I cannot guarantee that I would be happy using the service for a long period of time. My receipt states that I have signed up for two years at a discounted rate and then two years at the regular rate. This leaves me worried about what sort of long-term commitment I may have unknowingly entered into.

Despite these concerns with the subscription, I must say that the hosting services are top-notch. They offer fast and reliable service, and I have not had any significant issues with uptime or server speed. Additionally, the support team has been incredibly helpful and polite, always responding to my inquiries in a timely manner.

Overall, I would recommend NameHero hosting services to anyone who is in need of fast and reliable hosting services. Just beware that you may unknowingly sign up for a subscription without fully understanding what that entails.

NameHero NameHero Web Hosting Review: Impressive Services but Checkout Process Needs Improvement

So, I gotta be real with you guys. I recently signed up with NameHero for my web hosting needs, and honestly, I'm super impressed. But, let me start by saying, their checkout process gave me a bit of a headache.

You see, I was transferring my domain over to NameHero, and I had no idea I needed an EPP code. So, when I got to the checkout process, I was hit with a roadblock. I had to stop everything and figure out how to get my EPP code from my current registrar. Let me tell you, it was not a quick and easy process.

I ended up spending an extra 15 minutes just trying to figure out what the heck was going on. And while I eventually got my EPP code and was able to proceed with the checkout process, it was still a frustrating experience.

Now, if NameHero had a warning or something at the start of the checkout process, I could have saved myself a lot of hassle. But, I will say, despite this hiccup, I am really happy with my decision to go with NameHero.

Their hosting services are top-notch, and their customer support is seriously impressive. I've had a couple of issues since signing up, and every time I've contacted their support team, they've been quick to respond and super helpful.

Overall, I would definitely recommend giving NameHero a try for your web hosting needs. Just be sure to have your EPP code handy if you're transferring a domain over!

NameHero Avoid NameHero Hosting Company at All Costs! Terrible Experience and Unethical Business Practices

I had such a terrible experience working with NameHero! They owe me over $1000 and keep giving me all kinds of excuses as to why they can't give me my refund. It's so frustrating!

I'm not just going to let this go. I've decided to take legal action against them. I've had enough of their terrible customer service and unethical business practices.

Do yourself a favor and look for a different hosting company to work with. You don't want to get caught up in the mess that I did by working with NameHero. Trust me, it's not worth it!

Stay far, far away from this company at all costs!

NameHero Disappointing Experience with namehero.com: Unhelpful Customer Service and Unprofessional Process

I purchased a Host and domain from namehero.com and it was quite a process. When I was about to pay for the items, an error message popped up, and I had to start the whole process all over again. This was already a hassle, and to make matters worse, my bank account was already debited.

I contacted their customer service through email, and luckily, they were able to manually add the Host and domain to my account. However, when I checked, my domain was registered under the wrong name. I requested for them to change it, but they refused to do so, claiming that it was my fault.

I was disappointed with the experience and I do not recommend using their service. Their customer service was not helpful and unfriendly, and the whole process felt rushed and unprofessional. It's better to look for other options than risking to have a similar experience.

NameHero NameHero Review: Performance Shines, but Upselling and Pricing are a Bit of a Downer

Well, let me tell you about NameHero. This web hosting provider is quite impressive, and trust me, it's way quicker than Godaddy. If you're looking for a reliable service that delivers on performance, then NameHero is where it's at.

Now, about the upselling. I get it, they want to make their money, and I'm fine with that. But let's be honest, no one likes feeling like they're being nickel-and-dimed, and that's exactly how I felt when I saw all the upsells. I mean, come on guys, just come up with a one-price feature and let's get on with it.

But hey, like any hosting company, their pricing isn't exactly something to write home about. It's going to make most of us common folk cringe, but let's just rip off the bandaid and get it over with, yeah? None of us want to be torched with upsells that we don't even understand. I'm not a techy guy, and all those mumbo jumbo words and options make my head spin.

Overall, NameHero is a pretty solid choice for web hosting. Sure, the upselling needs to be toned down a bit, and the pricing could be better, but when it comes to performance, NameHero delivers. Give it a shot, you won't be disappointed.

NameHero NameHero Web Hosting Review: Slick Design and Reasonable Prices, but Misleading Add-Ons

Ok, so I gotta say I was lookin' for a good web hostin' service for my online biz and came across NameHero. Lookin' at their website, I gotta say it looks pretty slick and easy to use. But lemme tell ya, there were a coupla things that didn't sit right with me. First off, when I was checkin' out their add-ons for ID protection, email forwarding, and external DNS management, I saw that it was gonna cost me an extra $21.92 for a yearly renewal. But then, when I went to select the one year renewal option, the price dropped down to $12.98. What gives, man? That's a bit misleading if ya ask me.

There was also an issue after I picked my domain name. When I clicked to continue, it took me back to the web hostin' plan selection page without the discount, not once, but twice! That was a bit annoying, ya know? And to add to that, their website was movin' a bit slow the past couple days.

But overall, NameHero's website design is pretty dope and I gotta say, it's easy to navigate once you get the hang of it. Plus, I think their prices are pretty reasonable compared to some other web hostin' services out there. If they fix those few issues I mentioned, it'll be a solid choice for web hostin'.

NameHero Beware of NameHero Pricing Trickery

I gotta say, I was real excited about NameHero at first. Their website looked slick and professional, and their hosting packages seemed pretty reasonable. But boy, was I in for a surprise.

Turns out, the prices they list on their site are only available if you sign up for a whole year or more. Ain't that some sneaky business? You'd think they'd be more upfront about something like that, but nope. I had to dig around to find that little asterisk that says "terms apply" - and even then, I couldn't find any details about those terms or any other rates that might be available.

I ain't gonna lie, that put a damper on things for me. It's one thing to offer discounts for longer commitments, but it's a whole 'nother thing to make it hard for folks to figure out how much they're actually gonna be paying. A little honesty and transparency would've gone a long way in my book.

All that said, I gotta admit that the rest of the NameHero experience was pretty smooth. Once I got past the pricing confusion, the signup process was easy enough, and their hosting service seems to be top-notch. So it's not like I'm completely unhappy, but I do wish they'd play a little more fair.
