Google.

daboss

It used to be my employer's website, but then heck, I'm my own man at home... :evil:

Python

looks like we all use google then

tntcheats

It's the only thing faster than a blank page

Python

yeah true. most people probably use it for its simplicity

CannonBallGuy

Used to be google, but Safari has its own little google seacrh bar thing and i set it to my own site purely so I can see if its up or not...
Currently it's not.
I told my host (if you can call them that...) that if it ain't up again very very soon there will be one hell of a lot of bad news about them on the net! lol

tntcheats

Yep, one unhappy customer is a hell of a lot louder than 1000 satisfied ones. (Not saying they're a respectable service)

Who's the host?

CannonBallGuy

xehost.net.
It may be that they have just been down for the last 2/3 days, but it may have been down for the 2 weeks before that too.
Up untill now they have been pretty good. Hell, I was recommending them to everyone.

daboss

xehost.net is down toooo... I think it's time to switch hosts...

pfgannon

2-3 days
OMG thats bad
Longest a server should be down is 5 minutes at the most!

CannonBallGuy

It seems they ahve closed. Bang goes 6 more months worth of hosting...
they have offered me a free months woth at HostGator.com but Ideally I wanna buy from a UK company this time...
Waiting for a response from HostGator

PS, Sorry for going off topic like this...

daboss

CBG, how much is that 6 month's worth? What's your hosting plan like by the way?

tony

cannonballguy
you recommended them to me...thank god i didnt go with them :P

i signed up 123-host-me.com so far ive had 100% server uptime, hes a new guy but hes always on msn if you ever have any problems.
I only chose him over another person as he lived fairly close so if i had any problems i could go down with my boys :P
but yea id really recommend him, i think he does custom packages, i got 3gb bandwidth 200mb space domain name cpanel etc for either £20 or £25 for a year with the domain

if you tell him i told you about him he might be able to give you a special deal

daboss

go down with my boys

You do mean Python and Rally, don't you?

Anyway, 20/25 quid sound like a fair deal (+ the domain???)...

tony

20-25 including the domain

lol no my boys are hard :P (sorry python and rally) 1 is a prop boxer ranked 16th in his weight

if you tell me what you need mysql ftp sub domains space and bandwidth i can get a price with and without the domain for you? he might do it cheaper seen as he knows me

CannonBallGuy

Okay. Can you ask how much it will cost for 300MB space and 3GB bandwidth? I need PHP, FTP, CatchAll email, CPanel (Preferably with Fantastico) and email forwarders.

Dan

CBG I can host you cheaper than anyone I bet i'll pm you

daboss

Dan
