Network solutions sucks
If you need a hosting provider for your domain, by all means avoid Network Solutions.
- Their website sucks. It’s bandwidth intensive and loads a ton of irrelevant marketing images that get in the way.
- You can’t get to the administration panels on their website without getting a number of nag screens which attempt to sell you things you don’t need and usually don’t want.
- They send numerous irrelevant emails to your whatever email address you may have been foolhardy enough to provide. Don’t let it happen to you. If you use Gmail, you can set up a website specific email address. You could also use a temporary email address.
- In my experience, their technical support staff is not knowledgeable and can’t do common things like assigning new DNS servers without escalating to an engineer. I’ve had several phone calls get sucked into their black hole of technical support, never to be returned.
