OMFG! Hosting rant - GoFuckYourself.com

ManPuppy · 09-29-2011, 08:36 AM

I've launched a couple new sites this week, dropped a wad of cash on ads, spent hours getting link trades set up, and BOTH of my web hosts have chosen this week to shove their heads up their asses. DNIS problems and hardware crashes left and right! They're not even related companies, but they've both picked RIGHT NOW, when I'd finished the hard parts and traffic has started coming, to start crashing for no reason. GRRRRRRRRR!!!!!

jhmplondon · 09-29-2011, 08:48 AM

That's still noting, once my web host due to billing system error wiped out my VPS with over 30 sites running, it took them 1 week to restore it from backup, but even this wasn't complete. And all this when I was running ad campaign.

Get a new host

facialfreak · 09-29-2011, 11:52 AM

What type of servers do you have? Will they handle the sudden influx of traffic?

The fact that two unrelated hosts both go south on you at the same time is kinda odd ..

AliGbone · 09-29-2011, 12:22 PM

Not good for your bidness

chaze · 09-29-2011, 12:26 PM

We would love to show what awesome hosting is like! See sig.

media · 09-29-2011, 01:19 PM

Hit me up if you want to switch hosting, we can get you good hardware and our pipes can handle whatever traffic you want to throw at us..

Goto Nakedhosting, i've screwed up almost every conceivable possibility and they bail me out :D

Use Amazon for DNS. Costs like 50 cents a month.

certified hosting is what u need for uptime and for support.

few weeks back , FBI raided my another vps hosting and took hdds away , my vps was one of them.,
and they screwed me by saying sorry, and my bad i didn't had taken backup., FML

raymor · 09-29-2011, 07:47 PM

It's always something, isn't it. There's always got to be something going wrong it seems at times. Very frustrating. Tomorrow will be different.

I don't always connect GFY nicks to real names. If you happen to be a client, remember we can always launch your clone server any time there is any problem with your host or server. Just give us a call and we'll have your sites up in five minures, then switch you back when your main server is ready.

Good point FF, kinda odd ...

It's amazing how many "hard drive crashes" come right after a hosting tech says "crap I didn't mean to do that." ;)
