Damn Web Hosts



I tried my 7th webserver in the last 12 months and this time it was A Small Orange. And I am surprised to say that even though the support guys were extremely helpful, the server was quite disappointing. Especially the backend. Server response time is pathetic and the Control Panel seems to ignore simple settings like forwarding a mail id to another id. I have sent around 4 support queries in the last 2 days alone.

I just need a web host which provides decent webspace with massive bandwidth and backend happens to be DirectAdmin. Any suggestions?

    Wow, someone who doesn’t like cPanel, there is something that I’d never thought I’d see/hear/read :)

    Well good luck with your search. I actually know many people that use ASO and to be honest, I’ve only heard good things from them. I’m sorry you had troubles with them, and can’t help you with your host search as I only know hosts that offer cPanel as admin panel. Yea, being a die hard cPanel fan will probably affect the hosts I know :)

    well the server works fine but the backend sucks. :)
