    I have used Yahoo as a webhost for my company for many months now and have found it to be outstanding. Yahoo's web design software allowed me to creat my own professional looking webpage without having to know any html or anything like that. I love how user friendly it is.

    I have never had a problem with my site going down and Yahoo's customer service has been unmatchable. I would refer my family and friends to yahoo without a second thought!

    I have recently been trying to make my own website. After sifting through many hosts, I finally decided that I wanted to use Yahoo. I had a great experience!

    The features were all explained throughly and were simple and easy to use.

    When I did happen to run into something I didn't know how to do, Yahoo's customer support was there for me. Not to mention their prices are so fair! Overall, I really enjoyed using Yahoo's hosting services.

    hi. i am sabarish. when i started my website 3 years back, i searched for web hosters and found yahoo to be the best one.

    it comes with a site building tool to develop your site. the tool has various facilities. i had many pages and attractive images in my site. no one could believe that i only created that website. the tool is simple and easy to use. no need to know html or any other programming language.it will support u to develop your style of website.

    Their customer service is little slow i think and cost is comparatively reasonable for a good service. i last used it a year back and i hope more features will be available now. my first choice for my buddies would be yahoo hosting.

    I found Yahoo! to be a very poor choice for shared hosting. It seemed that at least twice a month, I would get MySQL connect errors, or very slow performance for dynamic pages that used a database. Support requests were only honored to an @yahoo.com address despite requests that it be sent to the email at the domain I had with them.

    In addition, Yahoo! really packs its servers. I found out at one point that over 200 sites were on the same server as me. They also don't support basic functionality, probably as a result of packing the servers. You can't make a .htaccess file, for example. Setting up new users for FTP is a pain in the ass, and you can't use FTP over SSL.

    All in all, no matter how good the price seems, Yahoo! is a very, very poor quality shared host.

    I like "Yahoo" web host because it has a lot of very useful features that will really help the user in doing things that they wanted to do. One of the features that I like the most in "Yahoo" is their built in tools for making a website.

    Aside from that, "Yahoo" is already a known, proven and tested web hosting choice of a lot of user that is why anyone that will use "Yahoo" will have an assurance that it is safe and really dependable and of good quality.

    The only thing that I do not like with "Yahoo." is their pricing system or process. It keeps on increasing without a proper notification to its user why they are increasing its price.

    I used Yahoo a few years ago soon after they had bought Geocities. Back then I wasn't particularly knowledgeable on tech issues and I found their sitebuilder module and documentation very helpful.

    The uptime was generally very good and the support service was very helpful, with responses usually within a few hours.

    I would highly recommend them for people who are looking for a safe choice and good value hosting plans.
