Web Hosting: credit where credit is due

Posted 08:08 pm | Comments: (3) | Website/Hosting

I know this might be tempting fate, but …

After my extreme upset with Site5 a while ago, I’m pleased to say that since that awful period of unreliability & excessive downtime, my hosting with Site5 has been trouble free.

I notice that Site5 have removed a few features – they apparently no longer offer guaranteed uptime, and a host status page they used to have for each host machine is no longer accessible.
There are some new features offered instead which might interest some people – their latest special offer on hosting is impressive ($5/month for 55GB storage! Pre-paid for two years though)

So, Site5: Well Done! But please keep the service as good as it is now, and not like it was for a while!

    Thanks Josh – didn’t realize they’d moved it!

    I’m now with BlueHost, wow what a difference from iPowerWeb!
    $7.95 a month, 6 free domain names and best of all no 1.5 hour wait for tech help. So far no downtime.
