Comparing reviews of software applications and services by yourself certainly takes time, but what can make the whole process just too hard to handle is how difficult some reviews can be to contextualize. It’s no good knowing that Jack Smith thinks Magento is the coolest service in the world if you have no idea what he thinks about other services, and that includes not only the ones that compete directly with Magento but also services which are not directly related to it. Unless the person who’s written the review has come with a marvellously detailed piece, you won’t be getting a true understanding of how similar he is to you. And if that isn’t coming through, then you won’t trust what you’re reading that systematically.
This new site aims to solve that frequent problem. On CompareWebsiteServices.com, you can read reviews and see comparison charts for mostly any kind of web service and application. Web hosts, online video players, membership scripts, payment processors… it’s all already compared on this site. You get to know how much everything costs, and which its pros and cons are. Picking the one that could meet your exact demands and (more importantly) your budget is simplified to no end.

If you are thinking about launching your very own site, the hosting service you will choose should never be an afterthought.

Well, this new resource should be enough to make things easier for everybody.
Essentially, HostMeasureUp.com is where web hosts are compared side by side. They are pitched one against the other and measured in tons of different ways.

And all that information is provided in a clear, easy-to-understand way, and the database is updated whenever new hosts come along. And the information is also refreshed whenever any of the hosts that are already featured changes the services it renders (IE, how much it charges, the actual servers that are used…).
So, the site provides all the information that could help you pick the best hosting service the first time around, and also know which ones happen to supersede it in efficacy as time goes by. And all that information can be browsed without having to sign up first, so that it could effectively be said that this is a useful resource bar none.

For example, users are enabled to set down the currency (or currencies) that they want to use, and they can also filter stores out. This means that if they have had a bad experience at any retailer in the past (or if they know of someone who has been burned) then they can simply make that retailer vanish from their search results altogether.
