No, no. They're obviously paying this guy to draw attention away from the cracks in the Universe that they've created with their mad scientist extravaganzas. There'll be black holes everywhere by Tuesday!

I found this awesome host. They give you a dedicated Win 3.11 server with Ruby on Boats support for only $200/month

Try entering a support ticket - now that is what I consider GREAT service.
So it's a quiet afternoon here!

I've hosted my numerous sites via GoDaddy for 8 - 10 years. Can't remember how long.
Anyways, they recently upgraded but they didn't upgrade my Windows site.
Now it seems to be going down intermittently due to file system problems and I called in yesterday.
TechSupport: We can upgrade you for $$$$.
Me: Umm... can you fix the problem and make sure my web site is available?
TechSupport: It's an old server technology and it just happens.
Me: Wait, you are saying that since I've been a long-term loyal customer I have the old technology and that is my problem somehow?
TechSupport: Right. YOu need to upgrade.
Me: Wait, I can just move my web site to the new site. I'm paying the same price and you didn't upgrade me. Why do I need to upgrade? Why would it be my fault that your hosting is failing?
TEchSupport: Uh. erm. well. errr... uh...
Me: I'm moving to Winhost. Thanks. bye
Today, my godaddy hosted site is down. Terrible.

Sorry to hear that. Arvixe[^] seems to be the way to go.

thanks, I'm checking out the link / hosting service now.
edit: That's not bad pricing and features at all on arvixe.
May move to that one. thanks again.
|

|

I'm using Arvixe also. Not too bad
If it's not broken, fix it until it is
|
|
|

Thanks for letting me know. It is definitely in the running. I'm doing ASP.NET MVC 5 and writing to SQL server and arvixe looks to be supporting all of that at a low cost so with you and others recommedations I am leaning heavily toward it.
Thanks

I'm on arvixe.

Yup; been using them for a few years. Can be a bit slow sometimes but seem to have improved in the last year or so.

I'm home now and I decided to check out arvixe[^]. I clicked the link and now I see this:
This webpage is not available

Hey, ya'all this technology stuff works.

That's another cool link to check sites.  Thanks.

lol I was punished here (at CP!) simply by mention "GoDaddy". After this I "researched" a little bit about then and everything was ok for me (that was before about one year). I can't believe they go the hard way... 
I will suggest you www.green.ch (and also lot of others .ch). Nothing exciting, simply swiss slowness, but also swiss reliability

GoDaddy annoys me, I had a friend who wanted to host a python site, but the only support CGI and Python 2.4.

Not too surprising. Go-Daddy is kinda like Norton. Just the commercial Kleenex default.
So they have become abusive along with their complacency.
Watch that they don't keep billing you after you leave.

Even if I wore a watch, I wouldn't be caught dead with that ugly contraption on my wrist.
Probably talks too... Just imagine your watch going full Jar-Jar... "Yousa people gonna be late!"
