"I have been with Globat for about 6 months now, and I am very pleased with their service. I switched to Globat from another server who charged $20 a month and didn't have even 1/4 of what Globat offers in their $7/month plan. I'm saving $200/year now that I have switched from my old server. Now, to top that off, Gbobat DOUBLED everything: disk space, bandwidth, and email addresses. That was thrilling! They have good customer support, and the wait times for phone support are short. I would highly recommend Globat for anyone, whether new to website publishing, or more experienced. "

Background
Globat's founder Ben R. Neumann is one of the very few people credited with developing and starting the low-cost web hosting industry in 1995 when he founded Internet Communications (www.icom.com) which he sold to Interliant [NASDAQ: INIT] in 1998 and is today owned by Interland [NASDAQ: INLD].
When many dot-com companies started to fold in 2001 and more and more people voiced their frustration about web hosting companies they hosted with, Ben decided that the time was right to create a new and innovative web hosting company - Globat.
Globat hosts it's customers on a fully redundant, custom-designed network infrastructure of brand-name equipment such as Foundry, Cisco, Network Appliance, VA Linux and Sun. They own every piece of our equipment and do not resell somebody elses service. They connect directly into a global communications network unlike any other ever built - effectively making it one of the most advanced communications platform in the world. It is the first network to be completely optimized for advanced IP (Internet Protocol) technology and the first to be fully and continuously upgradeable - enabling Globat to continue to deploy new, superior technology as it is developed.
Selling Points
Besides having a great history of customer satisfaction in their first year of hosting service, Globat also offers one of the best hosting plans around. They offer an amazing 2000mb of web space, 60GB of monthly bandwidth, and 2000 email accounts for only $7.50 per month. Right now there isn't even a set up fee. Although the price is low, they have not skimped on their commitment to customer satisfaction. With the lowest priced package, GigaByte, also comes live chat technical support.
