open letter to WebAir, I am very pissed.

07-31-2008, 02:36 PM

<angry rand>
The moment I add new domains to my paid server you add pageholders that will make you money and scare off customers.
Since I pay for the fucking server a simple pageholder like "this is the future home of blah blah blah domain" would be acceptable.
Now if it was a NOT a paid server I could not care less, but heh I FUCKING PAY FOR IT.
please stop it this is not ok.

Takes about 2 seconds to edit the HTML with your own parked page..

If you just added the domain what customers are they pissing off?

my only point here is you should email them and they WILL change anything you need to have changed. It's your server and they will config it the way YOU want.

at least that's my experience with webair, but i've only been with them for 6 years or so... maybe i haven't noticed their bad side yet.

If the domain hasn't revolved who cares? No one is gonna see it but you and not even you if you have uploaded a new page and vist via the IP.

customers are getting "pissed off" by not being able to reach a site that doesn't exist?

are these real customers? imaginary customers? are they even in this dimension?

When you add a new domain, the new directory appears immediately. You can delete the placeholder, upload your own or simply leave it blank. Takes a whopping 2 seconds to update. And yet your post took about 10X longer to write probably...

No offense but i never get it when people make hate posts about Webair. Dont fucking host there, its that simple. The signs are clear enough when you see a new thread a day about Webair and how they suck. Its like buying a broken car and then get angry because its broken.

k let me try to explain this, the domains were parked with parked.com and do have visitors, now since I have developed them it is time to have them online.
but heh will follow your advice and at least delete their pageholder(s).
thank you all.

Hi ThumbLord, contact that company and have them remove it manually or add in a redirect in your <head> to an associate program of yours... problem solved.

And if you can remove it or not, it think its crazy they advertise on the server you pay for.
You shouldnt have to change any html or whatever. They are wrong.

When you add the domains do you not upload files into there directories? whats the point of hosting a domain with no files?

Just delete index.html and be done with it. I do that every time I add a new site to my server. No big deal.

this is exactly what I thought. It's what I do with the domains I have hosted on my servers there. On other servers I use the same template anyway that I drop into place.

I use them too for 2+ years and very happy. when i add domains guess what, i take the 2-3 seconds to simply delete the placeholder dude! You spent far more time bitching here then it would have taken you to do that once you added the domain. god damn.
