Moving hosts: one more time with feeling | Comments (2)

I’ve been with Dreamhost about 20 days and in within that time I have witness over 3hours of total server outage. To that end I have decided to go back to the dedicated server which I was originally on as it has now been fixed and is running much better with the full complement of 512Mb of memory.
If you are reading this then everything has been successfully transferred.

Stuart,
I have almost completely moved all my sites to Dreamhost…no complaints at this point. Of course my previous host (not named…at least until I can finish getting the rest of my sites off their server) has left a lot of bad taste in my mouth…almost anything would be better at this point. This may just be the way of it with shared hosting.
Fair enough, there are a lot of people that are happy with Dreamhost and that’s what attracted me in the first place.
However, having been with them for only a few weeks and seeing 3 hours downtime didn’t exactly fill me with confidence. I am going to stick with this dedicated box for now and when it comes up for renewal I am going to take a look at Media Temple.
