it seems like there is nothing to lose. thoughts..?
its strato's one yr in UK. can a company make such an offer?
You get what you pay for. If it's a gash personal site that you dont mind if it vanished overnight, then fill you boots.

I bought a £1 per year hosting package just to see if it would work.
There is a considerable difference between a cheap host and one that's not so cheap.
Like others have said. You do get what you pay for.

Please note: My views are my own and not those of the company I work for.
I brought a few packages awhile back which was cheap, Never again, With cheap hosts problems will arise for example, thier support can be slow, server downtime etc,
And of course thier greatest magic trick yet, Boom your sites gone!

These are not the views of a company director. These are strictly my personal views.
If they're anything like the top 5 largest hosts in the UK I wouldn't bother.

I agree. Imagine your site is loaded with other $1 hosting "buddies" on the same server. I bet the server will be pack like sardine.
£1 hosting? Sounds like 3000+ sites on old hardware (Sun Micro kit, left over from VeriSign acquisitions) - little profit for the hosting company, but easy money.
Wouldn't touch it.
Stay away! There will be many problems and little support.
So you're basically saying they're right behind possibly the sh!test host on the planet - no wonder its only a £1
