Hosting help? And update…- 04.19.07
Hi everyone - tons of exciting news and posts coming up - but at the moment i am a little bit frazzled at the fact that Dreamhost is going down multiple times a day lately - (but from what i hear we’ve been lucky we’ve been up as much as we have been?!?!) So basically, while scrambling to try and figure out what to do - where to move - who has the least downtime, good support, php5, mysql 4-5, nice amounts of HD space and bandwidth… got any pointers? or things to desperately avoid? We played with media temple a while back, kept having some odd email issues… considering going back to them with their new plans…
So sorry for the mini posting break - technical side of things taking over for the moment (there really are pretty much 2-3 of us doing everything over here!)… but please bear with us as we try to smooth things out!
Dreamhost are still in the same building, but they also have a second datacenter…
They are actually improving, i’ve been hosted with them since 2003 and can’t say i’ve had much downtime, I wouldn’t trust mt though, or lunarpages, they’re both no better than DH (i’d say they’re worse from previous experience). - the problem with shared hosting, isn’t the hosts it’s what the idiots on the same server as you are doing… you could always ask DH to move you to another machine and move your databases to another machine.
