Updates on Surf7.net and latest trend in the industry.

Website hosting is a literally straightforward process, but site builders who are doing it for the first time are frequently puzzled by this procedure. It is very simple to put your Website on the Internet if you know certain basic things.

For the hostican speed test and hostican server response time, it was recorded as 0.257second over the march 2008.

HostingCon - Be on My M&A Panel

Mon, 02 Jun 2008 12:10:00 -0400

I am moderating a panel at HostingCon entitled "Flip that Hosting Company" (Wed. July 30 - 4:15 PM). I want to have at least one panel member from our WHIR readers.

So be on my panel. If you think you are up to it, there are just a couple of hoops to jump through.

1 - Requirements: During the last 5 years you should have completed at least 3 acquisitions, your current position is either in senior management, or you are responsible for business development for an operating hosting firm.

2 - How to apply - send me an e-mail that includes:

A - Your Name/Company/Title/Phone and link to your website.

B - Write a couple of paragraphs on what you bring to the table. How you will add value for HostingCon attendees and a snippet of your background.

C - A paragraph regarding a specific point you look at (or reared its ugly head) during an acquisition, and why it was important to your decision making process.

Brevity and succinctness are virtues.

All applications are due on or before by Monday June 10th. BTW I reserve all kinds of rights including not to select anyone.

AND THE WINNER RECEIVES…a free pass to HostingCon.

I can't wait...Tom

I've been with hostgator since around August of 2004. I signed up with a
reseller account to use as hosting for both myself and clients. My problems
began about a year ago with them, sometime in February or March of 2005 when one
of my sites was getting too much traffic. Now, I'm no fool. I understand that
shared hosting oversells and anyone who uses too many resources, even if still
within their quota, gets kicked off. What really shocked me, though, was no
warning. Not even emailing me after they had done it. Nothing, nada. I found out
by a member of the site that was suspended, someone I didn't even know, tracking
down my phone number and calling me.



I went to a dedicated server after that, but I kept my hostgator account for the
sites that were already hosted on it - about three client sites, as well as this
site right here.



Two days ago I come to post a blog and hmm, I get the suspended page. That's
weird. I check my email - no notices there. I log into their billing system -
nope, account not past due. What the heck? So I go to their online support chat
and ask them what's going on. I'm informed that I haven't paid my invoice. What
invoice? I have no invoice. I check my bank and I see that I in fact have not
paid them since January. But man, I could've swore I put it on automatic pay.
And hey, if there's no invoice, how can I pay anyway?! Isn't this a problem on
their end? They tell me I need to email sales.



Okay... so I email sales. 12 hours later, they email me back and inform me I
have an invoice, charging me all the way back to October. Uhhh? I KNOW I paid in
January, I have it in my bank statement. I check their billing system, and they
don't even have a backlog of that payment. Something really funky is going on
now. Their system is screwed up, but no matter who I talk to (and oh, I've
talked to everyone) nobody seems to know what's going on. Sales doesn't talk to
support, online support doesn't talk to phone support, so who the hell knows.



Strangely enough, while on the phone with a support guy who informed me I just
need to pay the invoice and then dispute it afterwards, I received an email from
a different support person that my account had been reactivated, and thank you
for the payment. Whaaat? Uh, whatever. At this point I'm just going to take what
I can get and run. Now I at least have backups of all my sites and am moving
them.



It's just astounding how bad a service this has been. I even posted on their
forums about it, in their "Customer Review" section, and it gets MOVED to
another section because I can't post a bad customer review simply because I
haven't paid. HELLO. I WANT TO PAY, JUST NOT MORE THAN I OWE. I NEED AN INVOICE.



Other problems I've had? Well, let's see. About a week ago my sites reverted
back a day and I could get no explanation on why. I had JUST looked at my access
logs the day before, happy about a new site that was already getting hits, and
the next day - logs are back to a day before. Weird. I contact online support
(bad idea, since it's always horrible support) and they have no idea. I guess I
imagined things?



UPDATE 4-20-07: Well, they finally just simply decided to take their bogus bonus
from my credit card that was filed with them, despite the fact that it's
incorrect, I didn't approve of the payment, or anything else. I've never seen
such bad service, support in my life. I can't even be bothered to dispute it
it's just so amazingly horrible.



UPDATE 10-18-07: I'm still with them, why? I don't know - so lazy when it comes
to my own websites. Anyway, so a couple days ago I notice my "main" reseller
account, the site is completely missing. Email is no longer working. I log into
Cpanel to see that it appears my whole site has disappeared. Cute!
