Great affordable hosting but...
Globat offer an awful lot for your money, however buyer be warned - if you're planning on running anything that makes use of MySQL you will suffer enormously from the shockingly slow speed of their database services.
Page loading times on forums, CMS' and other DB driven apps can slow past 30 seconds per page.
Customer service are reliable when it comes to responding, but over 6 months of being posed the same question ("when are you going to increase the database speed?") they are evasive and give no straight answer.
Globat's CEO also runs a blog which fails to address their speed issues, despite many comments on the blog stating that it needs sorting out.
By comparison, flat html loads quick as you like. So it really boils down to a simple issue - if you're not using a database, go ahead and use Globat, if you are, go elsewhere. I currently have 3 sites hosted with them... not for much longer.
