I do some real estate so let me tell you a story....I wanted to get some land rezoned multifamily next to a gated single family community so the powers that be told me no way unless you get a binding site agreement with the single family homeowners. So at great expense and effort I got that which was very tough to do so when it comes time for the zoning hearing I figure it is a shoein but no it gets turned down. Why? I don't know for sure but best bet is the owner of the adjacent single family project paid off the people making this decision (campaign donation that is). So I played by the rules and got screwed. Point is why does hypermart appear so far down when you hit in business web hosting.....probably because GNET does play by the rules just like I did....but is anybody else playing by the rules....I have no facts to back this up but chances are plenty of the entrys ahead of hypermart got there for a reason that as we say may not be Kosher. Granted a good product always eventually comes out a winner no matter what but the facts are when it comes to business unfortunately dirty pool and politics are usually the rule and can hurt.
