DISQUS

I have learned that lesson the hard way. If you plan on going anywhere with a blog do not go the shared hosting route. Spend the few extra dollars and get the better plan with an option to moving up plans quickly if needed.

Steve, thanks for the comment. I'm sorry you had to learn the hard way, at least now your educated. Very often people only learn this the hard way, on the web uptime is everything. When your down on the net, you virtually don't exist. Just starting out, shared hosting is great, but when your business online gets serious you need to get serious.

I think the main reason I fell into this trap is that I was stuck, so I went with the quickest and most affordable switch I could. My old host would actually go down reliably throughout the day. As you already know, Michael, I made the wrong choice :)


You're definitely right about the branding with GoDaddy. I still have no idea what hosting companies are garbage and which are not. I'm not even sure how to research this reliably as users may fudge their opinions because they are part of affiliate programs and things like that.



If there is a reliable way to sort this out, somebody please let me know :)

Rahsheen, I made the same mistakes, but we both have learned from our mistakes :) When your in need of new host, please drop me a line. I will shoot you some pointers and recommendations ( affiliate free of course).
