AptHost Updates Hosting Plans - January 24, 2008 - Web hosting provider AptHost (apthost.com) announced on Wednesday that it has updated its shared and reseller Web hosting plans. The company has also launched a new semi-dedicated hosting service, tailored to CPU-intensive websites.


AptHost says some of the upgrades for its shared and reseller plans include increased disk space, bandwidth and RVSKIN availability. AptHost's hosting plans are also designed to meet a wide variety of needs for video hosting sites using FFmpeg software, says the company.

"We have always been looking for ways to increase the value of our hosting services, whether it be through the addition of more products and services or increasing the functionality of our hosting plans," says Brian French, president and CEO of AptHost. "Our goal is to give our current and future customer base the tools and resources they need to be successful."

AptHost recently released fully managed dedicated servers in both Linux and Windows.

APT Host Sucks! ( -no email- )
APT Host complaints

Global Webmaster since 1993. From over 4 years with APT host I can honestly say that we have lost literally thousands of dollars due to this companies negligence and corrupt billing process. When I purchased supposedly 2 separate class ip VPS accounts, I found out after two years later they added it on to my VPS account (same class ips) and charged me for two accounts an space. Now where I come from that is fraud. Their only answer after threatening them with a class [...]

Cheaters and Fraud. Cheap tactics. Never Pay their Affiliates. I had accumulated 119 usd and asked them to Pay my money, they asked my phone number for verification and said they have to verify before payment. They NEVER called up and No reponses to Support Tickets. I had done so much hardwork to refer customers and made 119 usd. This was going on for 50 days and they never paid till now...


Support : No proper reponses. Un-necessary excuses and delays

I've been in the video sharing business for quite a while now, and obviously, my work involves alot of uploading, editing, and managing. With Apthost, I've yet to experience any downtime for over a year now. Should I have a question regarding the cpanel, their friendly staff is always there to help. For anyone who is new to the world wide web, you'll be highly satisfied with their user-friendly tutorials on how to practically do anything. Overall, I recommend them to anyone and thank them for [...]

AptHost has actually been really good to me over the past couple months that I've been with them. I think they had some internal issues but It didn't affect my website and everytime I've contacted them I never had any issues reaching them. One time my site was down but I went on live chat and guy named James was able to get it back online for me in a few minutes. Overall I think they're great and I've already recommended them to some of my friends who also have sites.

It would be nice if my website would stay up. Up for a day, down for a day, up two days,down a day. If your business depends on having a viewable website, this host is not for you. Hey apthost, you are costing me MONEY! I would highly suggest you host with someone else.

I've been contracting for web hosting since the mid-1990s and have been with large and small companies. I decided to go with AptHost because of their support for ffmpeg and a few of the other video tools they support.

Since signing up in June 2008, service and performance have been flawless. In the past month or so, I've run into a number of problems (server offline, server extremely slow, MySQL not working). In each of these cases, I've been able to create a support ticket or initiate a [...]

I've had the worst experience of my life with apthost. This was worse than my divorce.

They lost data. I've been buying virtual hosting for 10 years with a lot of companies. No one has ever just lost data and then not been able to restore it.

They lied about why the data was lost. First saying it was due to an employee's incompetence, then it was because of a hack on the site, then network issues.

Then, when I asked that my account be canceled they took 5 days to respond to the [...]

I have hosting accounts with at least three different providers and Apt Host has proven to be the worst. My main problem with Apt host is their time to resolve a problem. It happened more then once that the site would crash, showing some wierd errors. It takes them several DAYS ... yes, you hear it right... days... to fix a problem. At the end, after tens of tickets and mails sent to their management you still have to fight with the techinicans because the site does not work properly... I am [...]

Absolutely The Worst Hosting Support Ive encounterd. I moved from a larger hosting company reading all the "Great Things" people said on there homepage and reviews. The Billing chat was great..once my order went in, everything went downhill., They promised me 3-5 hours on my transfer, 4 days later...nothing., I called support and they said they were moving the sites now, and it would take 4 hours, 6.5 hours later the guy I spoke to went home and just left a note for the next tech to move the [...]

I have been using apthost services for a couple of months but dare say they are great, no downtime and their connectivity is 100%. Support works fine and they answered all my questions quickly. Pricing is rather low and their control panel is user-friendly and simple to use.
Recommend them to use.

I have been with APTHost for a little over a month now. They have the most fantastic support ever! The Live people can usually figure out whats wrong. They are very nice and knowledgeable. Their prices are great, their network is great. I have not had one minute of down time since I've been with them. Europe and America have great ping and service! I would recommend them to anyone!

They keep on adding new stuff so fast it makes my head spin, so to top it off, you won't regret going with APTHOST!

Not sure what the other guy is on but Ive had the exact opposite experience with apthost.com

1. tech support is great and are always on chat ready for me
2. they answer all my question
3. they didn't lose my cpanel transfer
4. They were so friendly they included a smiley face in the emails
5. I've had no downtime so far
6. server certainly does not go down everyday.

I have been with hostgator and jaguarpc and none can stand up to the great service Ive received from apthost
