@Nhoel Yes, $4 per six month but of course it has limitation in bandwidth and hardisk space. But, I no need unlimited bandwidth and hardisk space for now, so it more cost effective for me.

@Dana

EXPENSIVE? A BIG “NO” FOR THAT.

I PAY FOR MY DOMAIN FOR $10 AND MONTHLY HOSTING FEE FOR $2.49… NOW TELL ME IF THAT’S EXPENSIVE.

IT’S THE CHEAPEST, I THINK, NOT TO MENTION THE MOST RELIABLE.

thanks,

Give your host sometime to recover properly. If the problem persist then you can always go for other option. If your blog is down for a long then you will loose the credibility.

I use Hostgator and I think their the best but if us bloggers are going to be in the blogosphere for the long run then we need to get a good and reliable web host. Hopefully everything will work itself out soon Dana.

@Michael Aulia

I already know about that. Yes, true that my web hosting is Indonesia company, but the company have server in US in which this web host. So, i think the connection is no problem anymore.

I assume your web server is based in Indonesia? and as you already know, the connection is so bad there that our dial-up (in Australia) is even faster than the cable in there!

I guess when you can make more money out of this blog, you should go for a hosting in the U.S. For $4-8 per month, you’ll be pampered

@Klaus @ TechPatio

Yah, it is really big problem if we only can wait.

Yes, friend, you can not band deh web hosting, but you can always move to another.

@Saksham

I surely insist to move to another web hosting if my current web hosting face that problem again. The problem almost 2 weeks, and it really kill me. Of course, I tolerate if problem only for less than 1 hours.

This is not a very big problem. Every host needs to perform some maintenance in order to keep the sites hosted in it going. Its a common problem. Mostly this problem is solved within a hour or so.

Actually I use WebHostGiant as my host as its too cheap and has good service. GoDaddy according to me is very expensive.

@ dana, you don’t really need to change your host if this problem re occurs. This is a common problem. It is solved in a few hours or less. Almost every site faces these problems. If you change to a very good host the time required for maintenance will be less or even none as they fix your site on other server of theirs.

Saksham

I hate it when webservers goes down, especially the ones you cannot control yourself and you have to wait for the hosting company to attend to it or get back to you. Sometimes they also have a “status” page up where you can see that they have a problem, it’s just that you never know if the message is automatic or not, so you don’t know if anybody is actually working on it and when it’s expected to get back up.

Web hosting companies should be banned! Oh, wait… that won’t work!

@Blake @ Props Blog I will surely change my web host service if this problem appear again in future. For now, the service seems ok to me.

My blog is also hosted through GoDaddy, and I haven’t had any problems yet. I think one or two of my readers have said they had problems accessing the page, but they were isolated events that I think might have been on their side, not mine.
I don’t know how much your host worries about retention, but they should compensate your for your troubles with either free hosting or a credit on your account or something. In my opinion there is no excuse for repeated problems in such a short period of time.
