[Shit list] - Arvixe hosting!

[canis]

I never have had a good experience with them. But then again I was mailing of their space so they didn't care for that .

Shamefull! My ticket was changed to "urgent" when I said I wanted a refund, the ticket has now been sent between 11 guys. The last guy found a missing DNS record. Even if I doubt it because I been checking the DNS records 100 times. As someone review when I googled "Most of their support guys, clearly know nothing about servers and hosting."


Edit: So it took them 6 days (4 with status normal and 2 with status urgent) to find and fix a missing DNS record.
Lets see how long it takes for them to fix the response time.

How ever I have already changed to OVH, but I will ride this storm out just so I can put in as much information as possible into this review.

Edit2: Here is a new printscreen too:

I'm a bit confused... you have the domain registered at another registrar and you have a VPS with them so you have root access. Why would you wait 6 days for them to fix this instead of just fixing it yourself. If it was something as simple as a record missing, that should be something you could have done yourself. If you don't know how to perform the most basic tasks of managing a VPS, you honestly shouldn't have one.

I'm not saying this to be mean, but the route you're taking is how so many people get their websites hacked - they are trying to run them on their own servers and don't understand the basics of managing them or hardening their security.

- No the domain is at them too.
- As I said, I have checked the DNS records 100 times. So I doubt that was the problem, I think it just was a exuse just like all of ther outher exusses for BS. My quess it that the server used to handle the DNS for the domain was overloaded. Because it is now changed.

- I already bought a new domain at godaddy and host at OVH. But I wanted a refund at Arvixe, but they insisted to fix my issue first and have a "last chance" so now I'm just doing it for fun. Putting all info into this review, thats all. I am just already done with them!

FBGuru stop bullshitting! The hosting sucks, the OP is not the problem.
The VPS his having should have no problem holding up that amount even if the sites are having large amount of traffic.

Where did I say like OP is the problem and hosting is good?

Oh, no wonder. You're in the angry birds mood. Go and do some yoga.

 

[fatboy]

Like others have said, if EIG are involved, pack your bags and run.
Every host they touch goes down the pan service wise.......grab your stuff and get out whilst you can.

I have to admire your persistence.
Also the post I have made few of them are a fucking joke. And I don't care if you are trying to make me look bad, the fact you are wrong in this instance and stop give advice to people when you don't know or don't have enough knowledge in the topic.

 

[tompots]

Yes, It really do sucks And as you say they try to point the finger else where, don't want to help. Mostly you get to hear "Its working fine, everything else?" abvously its not lol.. And they never seems to know what they are doing. I delivered everything in their hands, error message, prints, links to guides. They still did'nt succeed to fix it.

100% agree! they are no good! and I shut down my hosting plans for the exact same reasons.

 

[Worm99]

So why the hell do everyone recommend them every time words "adult" and "hosting" come together in a post?

Yeah, I was wondering the exact same thing! Then I found the answer, Arvixe is a affiliate. Thats why because they have so many good reviews! Because people write good reviews and put their aff. link...

Yes I know its a joke and the bigger joke is you saying you can run 50 wordpress sites each with 10 plugins on a 1.5GB VPS. Sure you could run 1000's of sites in 1.5GB memory IF they're all HTML sites. Think about(I know you can't) how much processing power it takes to compile and execute 500 plugins of PHP code each with its own set of rules and data. Not to mention the stress you put on the MYSQL and server side scripts and extensions installed for cPanel. Anyone who knows a little about server administration will know know how bad it is push 50 sites on such little server. Unfortunately, we're in BHW. Try asking the same question in WHT and you will know what I mean.

OP, backup your sites and move your sites to some other reliable hosting company.

Already changed host

To be honest I don't know that much about how much power is needed to do X, I just keep an eye on the server stats and upgrade when needed
But what server specs would you say are needed to run 50 sites with 10 plugins?

Awesome. Yay! Its a bit saddening to see your uptime chart as the site seem to come online as a surprize at random intervals.

As you know, we don't use same set of theme and plugins across all the sites so there's no fixed numbers that fits the bill but checking your server usage and upgrading when necessary is generally a good idea.

If I were you, I'd go with a dedicated box with SSD instead of VPS. Datashack got some good deals in your price range.

Dude he has 20GB hhd and 1gb ram
He can add 100 of sites. The plugin will not take up ram until someone is on the actual site activating the plugin.
Of course if there are lot of visitors the site will be slow as shit but still.

I know what I'm talking I did have 15 sites on one VPS completely managed by me with 1.5 gb ram and daily 5-10k visitors.
Also I am network engineer.

No offense taken mate. CCNA & CCNP certified network engineer here too with years of experience in server management before jumping into BH SEO.

OP changed the host and thats what matters the most. Lets concentrate on our work.

Yep I agree.
But still in this case it was not OP fault, the VPS should've handle the 50 sites with no or little visitors.

 

[Worm99]

Um, I'm not tech savy but I have 20 wordpress sites on shared hosting, they work quite well.

WTF???

I never, really never sent spam from their servers. Never!!!
NEVER!!!

I asked them: please send our database is very important.
Not not and did not send !!!

They said:
They wrote that the data has been erased and that they were destroyed !!!

I lost money & trust for my clients, etc ... !!!!!

I never missed payments, I always respected their proper conditions and have written that I sent spam!!!

Never!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not use datashack because I don't want that you have the same experience as me!

Probably I have it hake into their system and are able to write that I sent spam !!!
