          Hostgator also down for me. According to pingdom hostgator was down at least 6 times in the last few hours.

                      Overall very good, if they get this issue sorted quickly then I'll continue to see them in a good light.

                            Mine has been up.

                            They recently sent out a warning that they were switching servers to more powerful machines. Not sure if this is related or not.

                              That would explain the whole up down thing

                                        More interesting is the number of hosting companies they own and how virtually all of them became unreliable after acquisition.

                                          For sure, seems like an incredible number of hosting companies, no doubt reducing staff numbers. I never used to have to wait for Hostgator support, whereas these days it can be 8 minutes in the queue.

                                          I'm getting the feeling I should switch before this gets worse

                                                I just spotted they have Dreamhost too, though they don't mention them on their Wikipedia page.

                                                DreamHost is now part of the Endurance International Group!

                                                http://www.dreamhost.com/dreamscape/...ational-group/

                                                "They bought us for 10 times our annual revenue.

                                                Two of our four founders will also serve on the EIG board.

                                                Many of our employees were made into millionaires overnight."

                                                  EIG are the Manwin of hosting, this seems to be going on in a lot of industries, investors come in and try to buy stuff up.

                                                  These guys doing the same thing with infrastructure

                                                  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_...cture_Partners

                                                  http://global-infra.com/

                                                  they buy stuff like airports, I suspect it's just the banks themselves taking control by creating money out of thin air.

                                                        Personally I have a STRONG issue with the comment "Many of our employees were made into millionaires overnight." Due to the known fact they have cut staff members dramatically, so these overnight millionaires are getting that somewhere. I am all about the little guy and support the same hosting company ive been with since 1999 and they are STILL owned and operated by the SAME people. Excellent everything. Just hate to hear about people losing jobs. Sad to see the rich get richer and us blue collars lose our jobs to corporate BS.

                                                              Host Gator has been known to bounce all the time.

                                                              BlueHost, Host Gater, Dream Host... all the same
                                                              - you get what you pay for.

                                                              Even in the old days (when people considered them to be better)
                                                              - they just bounce a lot more now.

                                                              That's why I self-host (dedicated servers)...
                                                              - and yes, I know HG offers dedicated servers.

                                                                  Moved to liquid web and my shit runs 100% uptime month after month and if shit goes bad they monitor it and I don't have to contact them. More expensive but nice to know when I'm sleeping shit is up.
