Definitely no. Why? Just take a look at the service structure: Datacentre > Server Owner > Reseller > Alpha reseller > End User. How will it ensure the service quality after so many levels?

Those service are either alpha reseller based or configured on heavy overselling hosting server. The bottleneck of alpha reseller hosting is you can't guarantee the server resource because it's managed by multiple support levels.

How to Judge an Alpha Reseller Hosting?

Unfortunately there's no effective method to judge if the hosting is alpha reseller based because a reseller website might have nice web design or even their domain whois information is hided perfectly to avoid further examination. However you can still ask following questions to support to find if they are independant hosting company or alpha reseller.

A. Where is your company located, can you provide the full address? (A company should have detailed physical address)
B. Is there a direct Tel number I can call for instant support? (you can check where the number actually located)

There might be more questions asked to confirm you're dealing with a quality hosting company, just try as you can. All the efforts is to make sure we're not going wrong.

Except for the direct question to support representative, you can also check the server details if you have signed up their service. The best tool we recommend is phpsysinfo which will show up great details of your hosting server such as disk space space and using rate, network speed and cpu/ram usage etc. It's great system monitoring software that doesn't require administrator permission. If you found just several GBs or unreasonable disk amount on hosting server, you're probably dealing with a bad hosting service.
