Godaddy: Ok, let me look in your account.
Then all the login info etc went on. And finally we got to here:
Godaddy:It seems that your domain expired on 5/11 of this year.
Me:Ok thats weird I thought I had set it on auto renew.
Godaddy: Yes you did but we tried the card and something went wrong.
Me: The card is fine so im not sure what the problem is.
Then we talked about the card and aparently something happend that they "dont know".
Me: So what do I need to do to fix this?
Godaddy: Your domain has been carried over to the registry department and we charge a $80 fee to reclaim your domain.
Me: I was like O MY GOD ARE YOU PEOPLE INSANE? **I was already mad at this point
So we argued a few minutes and he said im sorry but your going to have to pay the fee to regain access to your email and your account. So I was very upset and I needed my email so I said whatever go ahead. So we went through the process and the total was like $90.19. And as a young designer I dont have alot of money to just give up like that. So Im very unhappy with them and am looking for another hosting/domain service. Any suggestions?]]> Sun, 22 Jun 2008 14:07:53 -0400 http://www.thewebsqueeze.com/forum/Website-Hosting-f15/Godaddy-Finally-Turned-Me-t1939.html Domain Lawsuit http://www.thewebsqueeze.com/forum/Domain-Names-f16/Domain-Lawsuit-t1847.html http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/edinbu...ast/7455822.stm

There's been a problem with the server that hosts work's website and I've been told to check out the log files. Well, I downloaded the access and error logs. What fun, the access logs have generated a 5995 page word document for crying out loud and just for a change, I don't know what I should be looking for. The hosting company says that they won't look at individual web stats/sites and they said that I should get/use a log analyser.

The website/server went down a few times and I ended up re-starting them in the CP that comes with the hosting.

The thing is, the host supplies webstats using Deepmetrix (which I found out today is coming to the end of it's "life"), but none of the reports are helping me find out just why the site does this annoying 'not loading' 'timed out' [insert favourite expletives here] thing.

Can anyone help me here? I'm really peed off as I'm supposed to be on leave and I'm just stuck and at my wits end.

He uses fasthosts shared servers, and I suspect the server details have changed at their end, as his site has a config file setting all the root paths and this would explain why it no longer works.

I think the whole hosting company was sold recently and that's maybe why it has gone offline but still, that's no excuse as I have been paying the hosting bills.

I have received no email (in fact I wasn't emailed when the company was sold) and I was given no warning what so ever.

I don't mind losing the HTML files, but I had written 55+ posts in my football blog and I may have just lost them all.

The question I was going to ask is if there is anything I can do to get the host to refund my last hosting bill or give me some compensation at least. It's probably my fault for not doing a back up of the files, but I think it's very unfair for the host to just drop offline.

I'm considering buying some space to host some sites. I have no experience with host, domains, etc, and was wondering what I should know before I get some space.

My plan is to offer hosting with web designs. I have a client whom I'm designing a site for, and I believe she wants to host her commercial site on her free 5mb of space that comes with her internet account. It's against the services providers TOC to host a commercial site on your personal space, so I was thinking that having some hosting options would be good to have.

So is a reseller account basically used for this? What do developers charge clients for 3rd party space?

I need some very cheap hosting as the sites will only have max 5 to 10 pages with a very small form. They will have .co.uk and .com domains. There will be no crazy scripting or elaborate formats. Just to get potential clients to contact me.

So I need:

1. links to cheap but reliable hosting preferable in the UK.

2. Would it be OK to have all sites linked together and hosting on the same host?

My trouble is that I've been testing some reseller accounts, dedicated, clustered servers and there does not seam to me that there is a one stop shop to allow me to sell domains, hosting, transfers to visitors that I don't know.

Trying a new one now for past 6 months.. OMG it's a nightmare so far.

1. You get a reseller account - ok
2. They give you a WHMCS Billing Software - hmm, HUGE!
3. You now have to have ENOM, Directi etc.. to offer all kinds of domains.

Also using another one - problem with them it's not automated. If you want to sell a domain, transfer or host it's all manual.. What the heck!

Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can offer this complete package and not have to be a total guru from planet knowitall to make these all work seamlessly without paying out the nose before one sale is made??

I know that this may seam silly, but if your paying for a service or selling a service you want your clients to get what they pay for and not have to follow up manually to make it work.. ugh!
