CoolHandle was established in very early 2001 by a group of IT Professionals. Even though I do not know anyone of these guys personally I kind of get the impression that these guys did it right. Over the 10 years CoolHandle is now in business, their customer base has been growing fast and at a constant pace. The products are streamlined and very affordable. The website makes a clean impression and is very easy to navigate. The moment you arrive on their homepage you know what their products are and what they will cost. |
| Reliability |
CoolHandle Web Hosting provides powerful and very reliable web hosting solutions - no doubt about it. The company servers are located in Los Angeles, California. What I like is the fact they have great uplinks and you don't notice a difference in website load times (unless you're maybe in Australia, but that would be the case with every web host located in the US). The support staff is well experienced and actually certified in many different technological areas. Since I am Microsoft MCSE certified myself I know that this can make a significant difference in the quality of service. I really like that their support staff will be up to speed on a problem quickly - saving me time by not going through hoops to explain a situation if I would have a problem. It is like the insurance you buy and hopefully never need, but is good having around. |

| Price Value |
 CoolHandle provides very affordable web hosting - no doubt about it. Usually starting at $4.95 you as a visitor to Web Hosting Resource Kit can take advantage of this exclusive coupon to save some money of your next web hosting package. By the way - CoolHandle not only offers shared web hosting, but you can also choose from VPS or from their dedicated servers. Don't worry - their prices are extremely competitive from what I have found. You might find cheaper web hosting somewhere else, but often you get what you pay for and I think CoolHandle.com has found the exact mix between low price web hosting and high quality.

| Control Panel |
Cool Handle Web Hosting uses the reliabel CPanel/WHM web control panel interface with all their hosting accounts (optional on the dedicated servers though). Each web hosting account comes with the Fantastico web script collection of instantly self-installing scripts. With just a few clicks you can install Wordpress, Joomla, and many other software packages. You can bring your new blog online in less than 1 minute. Awesome! |
|
| Customer Support |
Not much to say here - especially since I already pointed out how impressed I am with the support at CoolHandle.com. They offer 24/7 support via phone, email, and online chat. You should have no issues getting in touch with these guys. In addition a large knowledge base with a heap of tutorials and support documents make this a great web host to work with. If you are new to cPanel you can also watch the many different support videos that will help you to get the best bang for the buck when hosting with Cool Handle Web Hosting. |

If you are looking for a new web hosting company and you are considering to try something different for web hosting you don't have to. Sometimes something new is not really new, but actually well-established and trust-worthy. I had this "aha moment" not too long ago and I am kind of smiling inside when logging into my new web hosting account at CoolHandle.com.
