    hi all ,

    I 'm interested in finding out how often web hosts change their web hosting plans.

    Thanks

    It depends entirely on the host, generally though not very often and when they do so it is usually to the benefit of the customer.

    Hi,
    I think changing hosting plans is directly proportional to the increase
    in customer base and rise in hosting business and rise in requirements
    definately.

    Not very often. A host that is stable and knows what they are doing will have their plans configured to pay for what they sell. And therefore you will already be receiving value and they will have adequate flow to support you.

    Sales are one thing, but if you see plans going up and down like a yo-yo then something else (PROBABLY BAD) is happening behind the scenes or the company may be very very young.

    I don't change hosts I add servers to accomodate new sites.

    I did however recently pickup a reseller account to put a couple of my domains on for e-mail... monitored 24/7 by people I don't have to pay to fix something is great for keeping my e-mails up

    You know all depends on hosting but usually they don't do it. It's not very good for hosting's image IMHO.
