Streamline.net web hosting review

Brief Introduction

This is yet another company that was launched a decade back as an off shoot of Dollamore – the parent company and managed to make a name for itself in a very short time by hosting close to over 150,000 websites.

They pride themselves on the fact that their customers find it easy to do business with them and ascribe that to the fact that they have been able to make the process of web hosting a very convenient and uncomplicated one.

Another striking aspect about this company is their benevolent stance in giving away discounts of as much as 50% to registered charity organisations. The company claims that they have supported charities across the globe to the tune of £20,000 and that indeed is a commendable achievement not very commonly seen.
