Free cpanel + 1.5GB ram vps = ~$7.5/m !BuyerBeware
Hi, i came across this offer from 9xhost in WHT
The interesting thing is they offer free cpanel for some plans with unlimited free ssl along with discounts
CPU : Equal Share GUARANTEED RAM: 1586 MB Disk Space: 110GB (RAID 1) Bandwidth: 4000GB/MONTH IP Addresses: 1 (IPv4) Free cPanel. Free Unlimited SSL >> looks like comodo positive SSL Price = $14.99 / Month (20 % Off Using Code 20VHT, or code 50VHT for 50% recurring off if paid semi-annually)
after semi annual discount it comes to $7.5 with free cpanel and unlimited ssl.
Too good to be true. anyone has any idea about this host? benchmarks/ stories are welcome

From his time on WHT thus far I am not under the assumption that it is a scam, but quite possibly an oversight, or more likely a bad business plan. I suppose the possibility of an intentional loss for a limited promotion is also possible.
Stay away from them, he was openly advertising warez and other types of hosting. Had a bunch of his servers termianted a week or so ago for abuse (I think thye were with Securedservers) and other interesting things. Just look through WHT and you might fidn them.
Update : I assume from their reply to their previous offer at wht, free cpanel is limited for those don't use a discount code. i might be wrong. if anyone wanna try confirm before paying.
Can't even cover the cost of the cpanel licence at the discounted prices. That's beyond a bad business plan.
.info? For cPanel I saw infinitie.net offered similar deals which lasts quite a while.
They offer a 14.95 deal with cpanel, but with 50% discount on it? link please. i am interested if it is infinitie
$14.95 with cPanel, no discount

I agree with @Kenshin that 9xhost's dea;'s too good to be true.
Do we need cpanel?
Some of us still needed it
Some of our corporate applications, extensively use cpanel/whm api to manage privileges and automation. Its either cumbersome to push manual tweak via system administrators or keep writing own scripts ( and the onus of maintainence and upgrading them )
I also want for easier management but it's not worth of money for personal use.
For serious purpose, should find serious provider. This one sound fishy.
9xhost is a known scammer. He has done same before, I forgot which thread was it, but it was posted on wht.
This one perhaps? http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1154819
Ahh yes, the good old firsthosting scam.
