Namecheap VPS. Anyone from here using them?
 

Anyone use them? care to share a link to a site hosted there?

Thinking about setting up a new Wordpress farm, but need to try a new host for this project.

Do any of you use their reseller or VPS plans? would you care to share a link? I will sign up under you, if you provide me with a example of a site you host on their server.

or digitalocean.com for that matter.

I started using Digital Ocean (in my sig) for new projects, and it's pretty awesome. Don't let the $5 price fool you they haven't let me down yet... I use amerinoc as well, which has been rock solid. Oh, and OVH for dedicated servers.

Any chance of you sharing a link to a site hosted there?

Ahh, sorry I need to learn to read one of these days :1orglaugh

There's really nothing much on it yet it's a newer project, just starting a wordpress blog with all pornstar names I can find. I have to work on adding sponsors content next.

You can see how fast it loads though.

Thank you :pimp
The ping time is just below 200ms from Europe, but the load time is really fine. Looks good so far.

Want to compare it with a namecheap vps, before I deside, but I will sign up under you

NameCheap don't allow adult on shared hosting - I doubt they will on VPS either - Digital Ocean are great...

its not for adult, forgot to mention that :pimp

The VPS servers are really nice, I started with digital ocean for a mainstream project which has 100 million domain names and IP addresses in a mySQL database so I can run queries, and it runs quite fast with the SSD. I've now moved the site to a dedicated box with 32 GB of ram at OVH, but digital ocean was great to get things up and going.

was the MySQL local on the VPS, or in a separate central serverfarm, as some do?

Signed up under you now, for $20 a month its worth a try :thumbsup

Thanks for your positive feedback

I assume it was on the local machine, but I don't know for sure. I connected to mySQL through localhost, but they could have some creative stuff going on redirecting it to another box. Queries were pretty quick even on 100 million records and 6 Gigabyte DB. About 1 min 30 seconds searching a non-indexed table. Now I have it down to milliseconds all indexed in 32 GB ram on a dedicated box at ovh... love VPS machines for getting things up and going though, quick and easy to re-install the OS many times if you mess it up.

I would give namecheap vps a try if I needed vps for non-adult

They allow adult on vps and dedicated servers.
