GoDaddy hosting
 

Has anyone ever use godaddy dedicated servers and what was their service like and any complaints or praises ?

Do a search on GoDaddy (on this or any board), then back away carefully !!!

Go Daddy sucks plain and simple. The price is great but you get what you pay for. Try to install a script and you will get a good sales pitch from the support/sales team. Actually they try to sell you on something every time you call in for support. I guess they are loosing $$$ on the 75.00 per year plan 100 gigs of storage and 1000 gig bandwidth.

If you are going to promote an adult business then I would really suggest that you choose a host that supports and understand the adult industry, what you are doing, and the special requirements involved.

But first check that it is OK with the LL/TGP site owners. Remember, one of the biggest and most popular hosts that specialises in adult sites is banned by GG.

Which one is that?

Banned by GG? Does GG stand for "God's Gift"? It will be a very cold day in hell when I give the slightest consideration to what's OK with any TGP owner. TGPs can't die fast enough.

Yeah, they seem to very heavy on the marketing end...slick advertising, upselling everytime you click on something or call them. I've been with them a while, and haven't had major problems, but will be moving soon since I have heard too many horor stories on this and other boards.

One thing about their support....they promise 24 hours, and they do provide you with an answer in 24 hours with one catch: the answer is often BS. It seems even a wrong answer fulfills the 24 hour response promise.

I've found some other inxpensive hosting companies that have a much better reputation, one of them being naked hosting. That's who I will probably sign up with.

GG stands for GreenGuy - You may want to look at the pink slips for this board before you start yelling :)

DO NOT USE GODADDY FOR HOSTING... 3 people i know including myself lost days of work

It was a fairly recent thread: http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/...ad.php?t=42049

Thanks for the replies

Popular with the Eastern Bloc, but no where else.

I'd stick with reliable and established hosts in the adult industry, hosting with mainstream or non-adult friendly hosts is just asking for trouble.

Wow, I didn't know that America was in the Eastern Block :)

I have three shitty link lists and I'll be damned if I've ever received a submission from anyone other than a Ruskie who was using Exmasters. Well, I'm damned anyway, but I can't recall seeing an American hosting with that company. Same with Est Domains. Exmasters really isn't all that popular.

BTW, I call anyone east of Germany a "Ruskie". :D
(Mateusz will read this and holler at me.)

Only east of Germany?
I'd say east of the middle of Germany :)
