Problems with Hostgator anyone? Details »» | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The past week or so I have had errors messages stating a storage issue so I called Hostgator.com and up'ed my plan. Now it is still going on to a lesser degree.
Anyone else having this problem with them? My forum is very small so I do not think it the storage. Dirtygrout.com Forumshttp://dirtygrout.com/forums/index.php Show Your Support

actually i have changed my mind about hostgator. if you have a big forum they wont be able to support you unless your on a dedicated server or semi dedicated. www.idenfusion.com is there now but we have to move cause they cant take the attachment.php file. so if you run a forum , do not use them for big projects.

I'm fairly new here, but have been through three hosts in a year. First used 1and1.com, the absolute worst hosting company I've ever seen....our site was down constantly,45-60 minute phone waits for help....so we switched to HostGator, which worked great for about two months, then we started having database issues there. The people were rude, not very helpful, and our server problems got worse and worse. After checking with others who were using HostGator, it seems they have a real bad reputation dealing with sites that grow rapidly, as in they don't want to deal with them. They kept pushing us to upgrade to a Dedicated Server, even though at the time we were only using 10-20% of our resources.
We switched to InMotion hosting about 4 months ago, and I have to say they are the best I've ever seen. Using a V-Dedicated server, our site has been down once in four months, for 15 minutes while they did some maintenance. I highly recommend InMotion, but would never recommend HostGator or 1and1.com....just my .02 |

I found a buddy through the game planetside, and he is a hosting/domain reseller for hostgator, he gave me a site, and a URL for free with which to host our clan site.
our clan is dead for the most part but im still using the space free for doing some dev work with vbulletin, and have a dev board setup there. I have had no problems, and in fact one time while i was setting up my teamspeak module i noticed that they had the query port blocked that i needed. So i called them directly instead of talking to my buddy, and they instantly forwarded the port for me so the application would work. it happened in a span of about 5 mins. |

I use Hostgator and I have three of their "Semi-Dedicated" server plans (or what ever they are)... I have as many as 30-webstes on each server...
I have had this problem occur with my bigger forums and I havenot been able to figure out what causes it... It seems that somehow whenthe forums get a lot of use that the database doesn't get all it's memory free and after a while you get strange errors... if they don't reset something after a while your site will go down. My experience with a bigger board is that it seems to happen about every 4 to 6 months and after they reset the memory the site works fine again... I would love any feedback as to what this could mean as if there was a way I could turn off my site for an hour a month and run a QUERY or script to free up the memory I would do it in a second! |
