Globat boasts around 100,000 customers worldwide. It is privately owned, and has its headquarters in Los Angeles, California.

Both come with a 30 day money back guarantee, 99% uptime guarantee and a whole variety of free tools and applications. Globat was one of the first web hosts to pioneer low cost, high value products, and was one of the first to offer unlimited disk space. The company is committed to providing good customer service and technical support. This is available 24/7 by telephone, email and live online chat. It also has a useful online knowledge resource on its website.
