Well I guess I am just very critical. But goDaddy sucks as a host but their I use their registrar service all the time. Companies that are not in America where I can actually go and meet someone are not even considered when I do business unless of course it's a customer. But the hosting company I use is aplus or Dreamhost just because its more geared towards power users. Godaddy is good if you want to pay 4 bucks a month and get the most bang for your buck but not do anything too advanced. I myself and several colleagues and friends have used godaddy before and we all do some type of development or advanced work and godaddy basically sucked for all of us. You can pretty much get the feeling that godaddy is making a bunch of money and just got into hosting to make money on it but didn't really plan for their growth in that arena. You can definitely feel a major performance hit when comparing with the other two hosts I mentioned. Because when I was moving off godaddy I was so surprised how much faster things happened even basic network stuff like file uploads.

Very good price, I've never had a failure, or a serious problem they didn't go out of their way to solve. Lots of options, and choices. It is easy to mange, and configure things on line. When I call for questions, or help, an American I can understand answers the phone, within a few minutes, and they let me turn off the music, if I do have to wait. Plus 24/7 availability. They are a very customer oriented company, and very customer responsive. The founder CEO is a ex marine Vietnam vet, which I can relate to, and the company is in America, run by Americans, and I like that. In fact, when they go public I will probably buy a few thousand shares. They are currently a number one hosting company and I think they are going to stay there ... because they know what is important in a business. >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Winterlight >Sent: Friday, November 10, 2006 1:00 PM >To: [email protected] >Subject: [H] Linux server case sensitive > >I recently switched my Godaddy web hosting server from windows to >Linux in order to had htaccess support.
