Moving web hosts from Net firms to Host Gator
Well we recently switched hosts to Host Gator from Net Firmsbecause to be honest even though NetFirms is really affordable at only $10 a year they’re just not reliable. The uptime is actually pretty good, but their MySQL really really sucks. I mean if your trying to run a blog, or anything that relies heavily on MySQL it just won’t work. Pages would sometimes take 20sec.+ to load and frequently would totally timeout. DNS transfered over yesterday so I’ve been working on the new server from HostGator now for maybe 18 hours or so. And so far I must say I’m very happy. The page load times are very quick, and I haven’t had a single hiccup yet.
We’ve still got some domains to move over from Net Firms but I think we’re going to be much happier with our hosting from here on out.
Updates to come later.
