Unlimited Space Web Hosting - Do These Exist in Reality?

It is a sad truth to know that there is not a thing called as Unlimited Web Hosting. People with experience in hosting know that this term is given only for sake. The web space costs big bucks and how do you think that anyone can put a price tag over "unlimited" web space? Even the top companies today don't hesitate to use the word "unlimited" as a promotional jig.
Naturally, when a user sees the word unlimited, he thinks that if he buys that, there will be no future problems for his site. But when you analyze the terms and agreements of the website which offers unlimited web hosting, you will come to know that the unlimited space is only close to 20GB.
Most of the amateur web developers who buy these unlimited web hosting services use only a limited amount of space and they are still unaware of the truth. These fraudulent companies are relying on the naivety of these web developers and one day this sad truth will come back to hit them right on their face.
Although, these companies are cheating by marketing the term unlimited, they are not completely robbing you. Most companies tend to keep to their promise and they try to keep their word by making storage as maximum as possible. They also offer increased customer care for their customers and they offer other incentives like free e-mail addresses and unlimited traffic. These companies are not being entirely honest with you but at the same time, they are not trying to steal anything from you.
So, just make sure to read the Terms and Conditions of these companies properly before registering and make sure that they have concluded about what they mean by the word "unlimited". If they still stand by the literal meaning of "unlimited", the company might be a fake. If you still don't believe it, then take a look for yourself. Big giants like Yahoo! and Google are investing heavily in packages with high bandwidth and storage capacity so if there actually was a thing called as "unlimited hosting", why are they doing all these? They could have hosted their data in these magical unlimited servers rather than spending their money in getting larger servers.
Even after this, if you feel that an unlimited server actually exists, you are clearly delusional. So, rather than going for unlimited plans, create an estimate of the traffic and storage you will get per month and go for simple dedicated servers which are much more safe and reliable.
