Dreamhost Down Again

If I didn't love the one click installs they have I would never do business with them. I have a media temple account and I never use it, maybe its time?

If you use dreamhost, you may be retarded. Have you ever gotten yourself checked out?

I was wondering the same thing. Who actually hosts there and doesn't know what they're getting into when signing up.

Is that really a plus when they're constantly having issues?

I don't really have anything on their that isn't a throw away. The network gets a daily backup so it could be moved in hours if necessary.

The fact that you even use dreamhost is evidence that you will never make any real money in this biz. If you don't take your hosting serious and simply go with the cheapest deals you can find (especially after reading numerous threads about them being a shitty host) is cause for failure right there.

MANY hosts have the one click installs threw cpanel or direcdtadmin. Dream Host is not providing you with something unique. Why not go with a reliable host that has the 1 click install like phatservers for example.

Why would you put important business related stuff on a host like dreamhost? With the amount of downtime I hear about they should change their name to Nightmarehost.

You know what I make in this biz do you? I would almost bet I spend more on hosting last year than you made. Just a guess!

I agree with taking hosting serious which is why I have boxes with (Hostway/Netnation), Media Temple, Rackspace and Dreamhost. Spam sites don't need $300 a month boxes. Besides it's nice to be able to collect different class C from all the above.

I agree there are other solutions but Dreamhost's panel does make it very quick. I did 75 wordpress install last week in 2 hours, and yes I do know about Wordpress MU but its a bitch to break off sites and sell them when your using MU.

I do 200 wordpress installs in 2 minutes, learn to automate and get real hosting. Dreamhost is for noobs and people who's hobbie is to post on boards like this, instead of making real money

Yeah and I bet you make thousands off your 200 blogs in 2 minutes don't you.

Calling people out about what they earn and to back it up you toss out 200 splogs.

Too fuckin funny.

I don't use dreamhost, but I don't think you can judge his earnings or sites by that alone.
