so i've used this place for about one month and they were fine until about 48 hours ago when they started having some sort of dns issue which has made their site virtually incessible. (my traffic is like 15% of what it should be). so i started doing a little research and first i see this post about them using referral spambots:

i dont know how legit that is as don't know anything about referring url spambots, but like the guy in the post, i also noticed their shady domain contact info:

so i called the number, and its the home phone number of some lawyer in orange county who said he knew nothing about akiraweb or being listed as a contact for them.

so fuck these scammers. i found them from a post on gfy, so that's why i'm posting this here, so no one else uses these foolios.
