Find a New ISP

If you are looking for a new, inexpensive dial-up ISP, you've come to the right place! Find a New ISP is your one stop source for discount ISP comparisons!

With over 32 million dial-up customers, finding the right dial-up service is still important to many Americans. I will compare nine major discount dial-up ISP's available in the U.S. While broadband users may not benefit from this comparison, I also discuss the issues that all Internet users should consider and plan for before you decide to pull the plug on your current service and switch to a new one.

Many people will spend more time shopping for a refrigerator than they will shopping for an ISP. If you spend more than two hours a day on the Internet, taking a few minutes reviewing the ISPs before you subscribe is well worth your time. You can do that and more on the following pages.

Shopping For a New ISP

These are the steps that I suggest that you follow to find and move to a new ISP:

• Review a list of features, restrictions, limitations, hidden fees and other fine print
• Determine whether or not you want accelerated dial-up service
• Review the ISP Comparison Table and special offers
• Find your ISP
• Plan your move
• Review the list of other considerations
• Review the list of selection strategies
• Review the ISP statements
• Order your service and implement your plan
• Cancel your old service

Now the big question is: Can you find an ISP with service for less than $10.00 a month that has the features you need without the limitations that come with some discount services? And the answer is: Probably, but you won't know until you do some homework.

Since you are shopping for a dial-up ISP, you are undoubtedly using a dial-up connection to surf.
