I want to transfer hosts right now but I still have 9 months with my old host. Do you know of any hosts that will transfer this time when I move to them? I have seen this on a few sites but forgot where
View 14 RepliesI currently use Micfo, and was quite satisfied with their services and fast response times until recently. They seem to be undergoing a lot of changes, but performance seems to be going downhill. Last month I had continuous down-time of about 10hrs. They said this was because of a failure at the data-center.
Email and cPanel has been down for the last 8 hrs because of a server upgrade. (I don't know why they decided to do it on a weekday). They said it will take a minimum of 8 hrs for things to be back to normal again. It's only on the second attempt to contact support that I found this downtime was because of a server upgrade. The first support person I contacted said he has to go and reboot the server and things will be ok.
If I had to give the number one reason I haven't changed hosts, for me I would have to say it is the cost and time. For example, I got a reseller account on Site5 about 4 years ago, and loaded it up with domains. Since you have to request backups, and have no access to an instant cpanel backup, it makes the process time consuming, especially when working with sites that have constantly changing data. And because I had over 50 sites there, it made changing hosts a major time commitment. Also, to pay someone to move everything would be equal to the cost of a couple of years of hosting (or similar).

Should I go back to share hosting?
What you guys think about liquidweb hosting?
how fast the speed is? i have doubt because when i visit their main page are slow but i read some feedback its good
I am just curious, I know that it is a great customer retention hook, but really, and how about unlimited bandwidth? This is my first post on the forum, and I will be asking many more questions as I want to get the inside scoop before I take the reseller plunge.
At first glance it seems as though the advertising is throughout the site and not just in the advertisement section. I know it's only $7.95, but for life? I guess if they're paying for 2 years at a time, but month to month there is no way. They would end up with a ton of registered domains, and allot of parked domains. Oh well just thought I would ask.
Do the hsting comapny provide a system for you website for users to login or register
or do i have to do it myself
Not a virtual machine, sorry for typo. The OS is Fedora,

While lunarpages is kind and offers great support. The support takes a while. They frequenlty get hacked or block your ip to where you can not access cpanel and switch your servers a lot in the past 3 months i got transfered to 4 different servers with the last one atlantis and prior one belogna. There support can take up to 72 hours to respond back where other hosts at max 24 hours. Their downtime has been around 97% not advertised 99.9%.
This is what really upset me.
I contacted them through email to cancel my account and they said they need more info, ok. Gave them info and they went ahead to renewing the account after I had gave them proper info. I tried to get this resolved for over a week now.
I thought since they renewed my account i should access my account and download my entire site, well I could not access cpanel again, no surprise there.
I just now got off a 20 min phone call and they tried to get my account canceled as I gave proper info to cancel the account so I would not be renewed and they tried to sell me their service for $75 to close my account.
I eventually had to threaten them to press lawsuits "not that I would even if it wasnt handled" and they said we will close your account and not charge you the $75 to do so.
My god! How hard is it to close an account with such service?
When I joined them my first year was absolutely great! It just has started to decline in the past couple months or so.
I rate them at 50% great because their supportive in all areas except for the slow response and canceling an account.
Dont use them ive had much better success with GoDaddy.... wow GoDaddy! I know tell me about it. GoDaddy is not my favorite host.
You need to be careful when finding a host becasue ive learned that they pay to be on the top. I am now using Host Gator with no compaints looking at moving to HostMonster for the price and services though should I?
I want to find a web host and i have a couple of specifics that I'd like. Obviously I want the lowest cost for a relatively reliable service. I am looking to get started in my own web development/design business so I want to use this server as a development environment for myself as well as a deployment environment for potential clients.
I want to have SSH access to my space, the ability to host without buying a domain (at first, ill want to get one later), a good number of MySQL databases.
Some things that would be nice would be the ability to resell space for clients, not absolutely necessary though.
Are there any solutions that anyone here could suggest for me? What are some pitfalls and things I should watch out for? What else could I look to take advantage of?
I am having an issue where it appears an incorrect time zone may be on my account. I am in Mountain Daylight Time and it appears that it's putting me as being in Eastern Daylight Time.
I was told that you can put a line such as:SetEnv TZ America/Denver
in your htaccess.txt file.
I wasn't sure where to put it so I put it at the end of the hdaccess.txt file.
The issue is it appears it still did not fix it. Is there another way to set the time zone or did I do something incorrectly?
RedHat Box running Sendmail 8.13.1, php 4.4.7, only 1 domain on it running the most recent vBulletin version and vBulletin has been successfully setup to run mail through GMail. The files in the domain directory have been cleaned up, ie. old unused files, etc.
Every night running into the same issue. Server goes on VERY high load due to sendmail. With hundreds of following processes:
apache 29425 0.0 0.0 6712 2576 ? D 19:31 0:00 /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i
apache 29426 0.1 0.0 6688 2500 ? D 19:31 0:00 /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i
apache 29427 0.2 0.0 7080 2572 ? D 19:31 0:00 /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i
I also have hundreds of files left in /var/spool/clientmqueue
I am a little confused, is the clientmqueue directory mail coming into the server or mail that is leaving the server?
If it is incoming mail to the server, is there a way to stop or minimize it's effects?
If it is outgoing mail, is there a way I can chase it's origin?
I would shut down sendmail, but there is 1 email address on the domain that receives mail.

im using RHEL 3 + cPanel.
I have been hosting my website with Yahoo for almost a year now. I am looking into a new hosting service that is better than Yahoo. I will be having a Content Management System (probably Joomla) and few more databases. Planning on installing a free shopping cart.
What do you think is a top web host to replace Yahoo?
I too am having an awful time with Crucial (crucialwebhost.com). I've been with them for three months and each month there has been a server issues that cause my sites to not function. They use Softlayer so you would think it would be better.
When I report problems I feel as though I am being stalled. Some of their people are really good but others just don't want to be there (you can tell) it's a flip of the coin.
Right now my sites have been down for days.
I dont believe any of these shared hosting providers are different from another except maybe pricing and 24/7 telephone/email support.
So putting to rest which one is the "best", when do u decide that it is time for u to move on to a vps or dedicated server. what is the daily bandwidth that should make you realize that u need to move on to a better server before they cut u down cos u r taking up "too many resources"
I just ordered a vps from them. its been exactly 22 hours since i paid for the vps server. How long does it take them 2 generally set up accounts? Any current web wide hosting vps customers on this forum?

I am getting this error on my site. I have googled this error and it is telling me it relates to a /temp/ folder of some form. I am currently on a hosting plan (not a dedicated server). Is there ANY way I can access to fix this problem either from my control panel or by code?
I have quite the story to tell. I have been denied service by three hosts within the past week for no particular reason.
I have been conducting business for over three years and have a US-registered legitimate business to run, and am in need of two dedicated servers of my specifications in multiserver configuration to meet my needs.
At all three of these hosts, I have chatted over live chat with the salesman getting me excited to venture with them, only to be let down and rejected service - as their own right, to refuse anyone for their service.
The first company was HiVelocity, the second was WiseDedi, and the third is BuzzServers. All companies had given me false hopes and promises - I actually put in a preorder at Buzz Servers for this upcoming Monday for two servers.
What's going on with this industry, and particularly, this forum? I've never had a problem with hosts in the past, or dedicated server hosting specifically. I'm moving, or looking to move to a new host, because I need a multiserver configuration - my current host could not configure it properly with DirectAdmin, and asked me to find another host to do this, and here I am, going back and forth between companies and getting rejected of service.
My company is not illegal nor does it represent any sort of threat, and has been online and established for years. I also pay on time via some sort of subscription, whether that be PayPal or 2Checkout, or even Google Checkout. I've never had a negative feedback, either.
I don't understand how or why this is happening, because now for the third time I've been denied by three hosts. Each and every have wasted my time by offering me their service and servers at the pricing I can afford ($350/mo), only to tell me later that the manager is denying my service.
What's going on with this industry?
Can anyone actually recommend me a solid, stable, established hosting company?
ALL of the hosts that have rejected me are brand new, unestablished, and incompetent from what I see - they reject my business. Surely I will be there to speak out against them, and for good services, I always write good reviews and testify for them.
Rob at HiVelocity banned me from their live chat support for asking about why my service was denied, and now Richard Anderson of Buzz Servers booted me from chat after I asked why as well with the answer "as a business we have the right to refuse.." - if it's not written on the website, that is not a right I believe as that is discrimination.
You'd think with someone with a good reputation like me, whose been around for years, I'd get a bit more respect than false hopes and promises, when I need a solution...now.
Not sure if there was similar thread earlier. But just want to find out hosts which offer shared hosting and have their own DCs. The ones I know are:
Pair
FutrueQuest
LiquidWeb
HE
I have seen various hosts runnig very cheap hosting on DSL lines, are they any good?

Im a webdesigner so when looking for hosting i try to find one that is simple to manage, hardware powerful, lots of ready to install scripts and a beautiful webmail like Atmail or Zimbra.
So im looking for a powerful / quality high end "shared" hosting package.
Until now i have looked at:
- Mediatemple
(as @mail, exelent support but slow in Europe)
- Mosso
(is always good to be powered by rackspace but i think that the cloud hosting concept is still unsstable. Any experience?
- SimpleHelix (realy fast magento demo store, lots of scripts, @Mail and seems to have a fast network to europe)
So any advices on premium shared hosting?
An in Europe, any company similar to mediatemple or simplehelix?
Budjet: up to 100 $
Hosting: VPS Hosting with 320 MB min and 1024 MB burst.
Websites: All the websites (about 20+) on my current vps hosting are very database heavy. They include blogs, ecommerce sites and a few small forums.
Before: In the beginning, when I had less than 10 websites on my hosting, the web hosting worked great. No hiccups and all websites worked flawlessly.
Now: Now that I'm hosting 20+ websites, I find that websites sometimes tend to timeout or not show up in my browser as well as browsers in other locations.
Do you think I need more resources? Do you think that upgrading to Hybrid Server hosting will rectify the situation?
