| Posted by Mizery, 03-07-2005, 01:59 PM | | Hi I was looking into some hosts and was wondering if anyone has ever used Lypha as a host? I was also wondering if it would be wise to go for the 1 year plan or stick with month to month. Thanks!

My suggestion if you go with them is start month to month and then go yearly, if you don't like them after a month or two you can switch and it doesn't cost you as much.

One other thing I can suggest is to try and buy close to what you need now and in the relative near future, not what you think you might need in a particular remote scenario. Be prepared to pay a decent sum for decent hosting and to upgrade when you need more space/bandwidth. When one comsumes more, one has to pay more.
Also, hosts can promise a lot of things, it doens't mean they'll actually deliver.
Make yourself a list of possible hosts and then do your research on them: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/search.php?s=
Good luck!

That is why I was asking if anyone knew of any that are good about expanding later on. I think 25-30GB a month to start will be more than enough with perhaps 300-500MB of space.

| Posted by liquidTech, 03-08-2005, 03:06 AM | | You plan on Reselling right away? I've used Vision Online Network, vonetwork.com, for 3 years now and no problems, my site has never been down.
They have alot of plans, so you can start small and grow. I have not done a search for them after I signed up and I have had no problems with them. Also, I don't work for them or know anyone there.
Good luck and have a good one.
Take care,
B

That is pretty poor.

| Posted by Mizery, 03-12-2005, 01:24 PM | | yeah.. decided to go with site5 instead as host.

| Posted by ldcdc, 03-12-2005, 08:29 PM | | Misery, I wish you good luck with your new host! Maybe you can come back after a few months and give us a review.

| Posted by superhill, 03-30-2005, 12:09 PM | | I just cancelled my service with Lypha. Reason for my cancellation is becuase the service was slow, site went down a few times in a 2 week period (thats all I know about, wasn't monitoring it) and support wasn't very helpful. In one instance whm/cpanel and webmail were down all day and their response to me was that it was just a temporary outage and is now fixed. All day is not a temporary outage in my book especially when you rely on these services.
I am now in the process of trying to get my money back since they offer a 30 day money back gurantee. It is not looking good. I can't get a response from anyone there. They have terminated my service but won't say anything about my refund. I may have to chalk that up as a loss.
I have since signed up with site5 and they seem to be really good! No complaints as of yet.
Thanks,
Daniel
