I would like to ask hosting providers if they feel any effects on hosting sales caused by the global economical crisis?
Well all I've heard is the price of bandwidth with premium providers may go up a bit.
Same as the others here. No major decrease for the most part. A few more requests of late for users wanting to downgrade packages, however we are seeing more small business ecommerce accounts starting up. A lot of people turning to operate their own mini stores in order to make extra money or support their income.
The great thing about web hosting is that it IS a global market. The financial crisis that is happening in the United States doesn't appear to be affecting too much of the spending habbits of those in Australia, Spain, Germany, Italy or England (our major markets outside of the US).
The one thing that small businesses are doing is cutting back on advertising - this is the wrong thing to do. Pricing for advertising is actually cheaper today than it was last year. Many places are cutting back on advertising expenses which makes it ideal for smaller companies to get more bang for their buck!
The financial crisis hasn't had any effect on Cyberworld Hosting. Since we do not rely on credit for the company expenses and we are a dept free company. This year we are striving on maximum growth of the company and profit too.
As far as I can see from poll results crisis has no negative on hosting providers!
