Moving from BudgetHost, looking for similar provider




Posted by tweakerxp, 10-04-2007, 12:14 PM
Alright, I've had enough of the ridiculous amount of downtime with BudgetHost after Greg left, and I'm starting to look for a new reseller host with similar pricing and features. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Can you tell us your requirements and budget?

I'm sorry to hear about your recent problems with your current host but a little bit more info on budget and specs will help us out.

it looks like he still has that site in his signature. what makes you think he left?

The new host that bought it confirmed he has sold it and left. This is a big transition, so I'm sure they will sort it out soon..

Yeah, I received an email talking about the transition shortly after I tried emailing Greg to see if there was a problem with the server. It's been too much headache for me. I'm on a reseller account now, as I had planned on hosting some other websites as well (I still do) but I'm glad that I haven't been. I'm not sure exactly how much downtime there's been, but it seems like its down at least once a week for an unknown amount of time. One outage corrupted one of my databases. After that I said to myself "one more outage and I'm outta here" and that came this morning. Anyways, here's my requirements: Same pricing: $60 /yr I believe it was MySQL database support 1GB disk space 20GB transfer PHP5 Server in Canada (if possible, doesn't HAVE to be) Pretty basic.

Your requirements are basic and any host will be able to provide them. But I would suggest you to increase your budget a little more if you are looking for a more reliable host. Or you will eventually end up in a similar host.
