For how long have you been hosting with them.

About 8 months ago. I haven't used the site extensively but have noticed one 'little' problem. They provide web stats from 3 different suppliers (awstats, webalizer and analog). These stats are updated every 24 hours - that's the downside if you like live stats.

I also love siteground. Their service is nothing short of outstanding. I've been with them for just over a year now.

do a search for "hosting overselling" on google or an hosting related forum and you'll see why this is not a good idea.

and assuming they are not overselling space/bandwidth, they are renting their servers for ~$65/mo. For that price, its a Celeron in not so good datacenter.
