(Quote) Could it not be just people who came there after a google search? At least in part?

(Quote) After reading this, I had to check if the last word of my original post was chaned to "an angel" - would have made a great laugh/prank. :) (Quote) No reason to doubt that - as I had said, providers probably have a better view of …

(Quote) My thoughts: "I gotta pee." OK, on a more serious note - not that I guarantee it will be any wiser: :) I came across LET by chance. And grew to like it - it is (was?) rather fun, cool, and informative/educational. Later, I joned…

(Quote) All true, I agree. If they bought out cPanel and offered it using DirectAdmin pricing model (along with their price-rise protection/guarantee), which one would you rather pick? My point was they are still not there yet. Not working with th…

A few more years, and it will be a finished product... :anguished:

(Quote) I think CF always does the MITM - can't function otherwise.
-
(Quote) Time + costs + needed level of knowledge and expertise. That's what it boils down to. I've been using CF for two years now, and it's been fine. They had one hick-up, fixed it, explained what they did to prevent it from re-occuring. Basicall…
-
(Quote) Plus faster, and easier website migrations. For example, with CF, you are keeping the same nameservers, just changing the IP-s - and the propagation of the change, when using Cloudflare, is usually within minutes. I only use the free servic…

(Quote) Cloudflare does more than just DNS. In terms of DNS alone - do you think this comparison is objective: https://www.dnsperf.com/#!dns-providers,World,uptime
-
(Quote) This was a control panel problem - routing and caching kept on working, you just couldn't edit any options (I had just finished a website migration, wouldn't have noticed it otherwise). In terms of reliability it's far from bad. Regardless …

Not really relevant, but good. So far I've seen 0 ads (expecting that to change): https://music.youtube.com/

(Quote) This is a lot more expensive per server (charging at least 1 $ per account if I got it right). And it is offered by a company "adored" in the hosting business. :) Sort of reminds me of an offer I got from a mechanic, decades ago: …

cPanel says: "milk it!" :) "Example: You purchase WordPress Toolkit Deluxe license at $1 USD per account and your customer pays you a suggested amount of $5 USD." https://cpanel.net/wp-content/themes/cPbase/assets/downloads/wp…
-
(Quote) Not really sure what the questions are (if they are questions). There are several ways to make good security (at any level, including the hosting server), and countless ways of making poor security. Some hosting providers get it right, other…
-
(Quote) It's a very basic, elementary example - allowing a relatively easy interception of your control panel login credentials does open the doors to do a lot of fun stuff. Lock doesn't really prevent everyone from stealing my bicycle, but it doesn…

Hostbill is a more expensive ("premium") option. If WHMCS don't rise to reach those prices, suppose many people will just stay with it. Migration is a hassle and a cost. While cPanel has no real, top quality competition, WHMCS certainly d…
-
(Quote) EIG, and some local providers come to mind. First thing that pops to mind is a http only hosting provider control panel (backend) - didn't work using https.
-
(Quote) As far as I know, sorted from the most, to the less common: 1) Theme/plugin problem (security issue). Either for not updating, or for using poorly written ones. 2) Poor user security habits/awareness. Clicking on an email and giving data a…

@MikePT Sorry to hear this. I hope you all get well soon.

As I was notified today, they have also "stopped affiliate program for your region" (Serbia? Europe?).
-
I'd guess there will be a place for page builders - for the more exotic design features. I also see a future for themes - since they could be selling a pre-set configuration, for good looks and functionality. Just like many people don't know how to…

ClassicPress? I find Gutenberg very practical. It has improved backend performance by a huge amount since its launch. My logic being: I am using a CMS (not making a static HTML website), and if there is an upside to it, it is the ease of content add…
-
I explained one such tech. support problem/complication (not with Siteground, but particular hosting provider is not importan for this), named it Catch 22 problem type. Now multiply this with the huge number of WP plugins, and multiply that with th…

(Quote) I disagree. Capitalism, market economy, if not kept in check by strict anti-monopoly (and other regulation), leads to one taking it all. Once you gain an advantage, you are in a better position to get better prices for your input, and/or sus…

(Quote) Load testing? Octoperf works for free for up to 50 simultaneous visitors, browsing, with no caching. Can be configured for opening page after page, as soon as one page is loaded - on to the next. Since most people are likely to spend at lea…
-
(Quote) I... I vote for brizy.io if one is going for "page builders" with lifetime packages. Seriously considering going with that - but for projects. For my own websites, I prefer no-page builder solutions. For now at least.
-
(Quote) I chose WordPress and didn't regret it. With a decent quality theme, and not too many (needless?) plugins, it can run fast (enough) and be stable and secure. Stuff like Getsby and other "faster alternatives" ruin the sole purpose …
-
(Quote) That's a more sensible and definitely safer choice. For all I know: Google doesn't like emails being forwarded to them - even when there's not much spam involved. That is the main problem.
-
(Quote) OK, I see now - just that forwarding them to Gmail seems practically the same to me. If forwarding isn't an issue, then I don't see how pulling them directly using Gmail could be different - that relation has me confused.
-
(Quote) You can configure one gmail account to fetch emails from several different accounts. That's what I do and it has been working fine for years. I just avoid the forwarding (re-sending the same email, for the same person). That way Google doesn…

Whatever (you think) you can charge. It's capitalism. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WTBkj8gFfI&has_verified=1
