I guess you haven't been searching the forums long or looked at hosting review sites and you yet you make the statement and yet don't give your reasons and on top of that your web experience must be very limited as asking to rename a web hosting site to something else that is connected to hundreds of websites as well. So I start you off with the Trap17 story and then I suggest looking at Trap17 reviews and you will see why this hosting service has been around for four years.

Thanks and sorry |

I too was concerned about the name when i first joined, especially as i was going to get free hosting that is easily worth £50/year! But alas there was nothing to be worried about... Well except the random bear traps, you wanna be careful of those
 but seriously the name works, its easy, it s catchy and it means something, and as for renaming it.... Well i wont even go there! Itd be a disaster! |

I was also a bit suspicious when i first heard the name trap17. But i hadn't read any of their reviews nor did i know how well their services was. I guess such a name may make other people weary about visiting such a free host, but such is life. The only thing i can say is join our community and see for yourself the services offered by trap17, only then will you come to appreciate their work. I don't think it would be that easy to rename such a web host, because thousands of links are already linked to this name and any alteration may break many links. But overall, i like trap17 and now i know better. They are the best and i am a proud member.

The name doesn't really bother me.
However one guy didn't want to visit my page because it had trap it the url =| Something that's been bothering me for a while: Does anyone know if 'Trap17' was meant to mean 'TrapIt', seeing as the name was of a gaming place, and so the name could likely be using some form of leetspeak? |

Eh, we will get used to Trap17.
I am new aswell since my friend IceAge introduced it to me. I have also had to change hosts alot, and I know it is annoying and irritating. But I hopefully wont need to for this host. I had 1 host aswell, me and IceAge had a GTA fansite, hosted by SabreHost.com. SabreHost is very good, infact one of the best affordable webhosting sites I've ever came across. But unfortunately I had to cancel my hosting account with SabreHost as I could not afford it any longer.  But now I am going to try Trap17, I just hope I don't need to change from here to another.-Sky |

Truly speaking the name trap, sure does raise your fear especially when you come to associate it with free webhosting.But i think going through this forum alone is enough to alley once fear.You get to know that this is a highly organized setup.
