it's clustered hosting, this is why it's cheap. you get no server logs.

REMEMBER that the only FREE cheese is the one thats in the MOUSETRAP.

And I learned that a hard way. I too signup and was using their cocalled hosting for my photo site. And trust me, after about 5 downtimes in a single week I told them "good bye". They are using clustered hosting, thats why they offer so much space and bandwidth. This place is good for holding data that you don't need daily.
Its not good for a porn site, especially the one that has high bandwidth.

Umm and I guess what, they don't do refunds. And as far as I know there are many people who say Servage SUCKS. If you want to learn more about them, feel free to visit www.webhostingtalk.com and make a search for Servage. Once you do that, I guarantee you, you won't want to signup there.

Just my 2 cents.

This is called overselling. The host crams tons of customers on to one server and hopes that not everyone will use what their package offers them.

I'll put this is really simple numbers. Say you're on a server with 99 other customers. Each customer is using 1% of the server's resources. A really popular site links to your 1KB homepage and suddenly, your traffic jumps from 1000 hits to 100K hits. Suddenly, your site is using 3% of the resources on the server. The server crashes. The host closes your account.

Hosting companies pay their bandwith providers somewhere between 10 and 25 cents per GB of bandwith (depending on quality of bandwith and volume purchased). How can they afford to give to 2100 GB for only $9.75 when it costs them at least $210 for that bandwith? And don't forget to factor in cost of hardware, rental fees, licenses, electricity, employees, etc.

There's a reason why a company like Phatservers only gives you 25 GB of bandwith on a shared account for $9.95/month.

If it sounds too good to be true, that's because it is.
I think I will take your advise.
I fell for the "great deal" a few years back...I lost everything!!!!!

It was fully dedicated server for $99 a month.
Company: "Sure, your server can handle 100k hits a day easy!"
One gallery on the hun on the first day and the fucking shit died.
Then the server was hacked to shit.

I went from $5,000 a month income to zippady-do-dah-zippady-doe-my-o-my-what-a-broke-negro.

PLEASE everyone use Servage and Dreamhost.

Less competition for me.

I am quite happy paying $1100 a month for a server with ISprime ... and even the prospect of saving almost $1100 a month can't convince me to change. But please .. everyone change to these amazing hosts Oh yeah also please can every affiliate program change over too so that there is less competition in that area. Can't compete when your sites are as slow as crap and down more often than not. Cheers

This company called Servage (Link Here) is offering the following for $9.75 per month.
1: 250GB space
2: 2100GB Traffic
3: Free domain (when prepay 6 months in advance), etc...

And for everyone you refer to them they also give you 2 months free hosting and an extra 25GB of HDD space???
PS: I join them this morning, upped a test file and I get 300kbps download speeds (max bandwidth of my connection) using DAP.
Run run for you life! Servage are bloody useless!

Let's not forget their customer service is beyond a joke, they have no cpanel and some guy who claimed to work for them tried to rip us off. Unbelievable - scammers without a doubt.

I read someones post about hostgator, I must say I've used them for over a year without ANY hassle. I'm only on the small package and my cs queries have been handled in just minutes regardless of the time of day. But then some people don't like them, I'm happy to use them but I wouldn't touch servage with a ten foot fricking pole!

UPDATE:

After using Servage for 4 months....

They lost every file in my account...all my domain folders, all files..EVERYTHING. They had no idea how it happened.

They lost my traffic. All stats went to 0 for 3 days. There are now raw server logs, either.

Now, my sites are 404 AGAIN!

DO NOT CHOOSE SERVAGE. YOU WILL REGRET IT.
