TMD Hosting - Site not loading - Need Cloudfare??? - GoFuckYourself.com

istanboys · 01-01-2021, 06:40 AM

So found out that my website isn't loading correctly. I contacted TMD Hosting support and they basically tell me I need to sign up for a cloudfare account.. What gives?? Anyone else with this problem?

I would recommend asking them for more information as to why they want you to set up Cloudflare, but my guess would be that your site is getting attacked.

Define correctly...

Two things i can think about: speed or some sort of ddos protection

Are you using shared hosting ?

sandman! · 01-01-2021, 12:06 PM

That makes no sense at all.

PornDiscounts-V · 01-01-2021, 12:06 PM

Wordpress? Using their wordpress hosting?

TurboB · 01-01-2021, 12:17 PM

I was using TMD shared (Web Hosting) BUSINESS plan. When my site reached 500+ visitors day, it stopped working and i got email that i exceed CPU milliseconds.

So moved for same price to Contabo powerful VPS.

I have EU dedicated servers with TMD.

They had domain expiration issues for Cpanel/WHM due to Brexit changes that took effect on January 1.

As today, it's been fixed on my side.
Using Cloudflare was the only way to keep websites online when they were dealing with the issue.

For people who are wondering, TMD is very good. Underrated in my opinion.
I get a best custom offer than Mojohost or others on Dedicated Servers+Cloud Storage.

They disappointed me when my site gone down on 500 daily traffic. Of course, it was shared hosting, but expensive one.
This way many hosting providers cheating their users to buy more expensive hosting plans.

you can't expect much for $4.95/month.

I dont think people expect much on shared hosting. But I don't think 500 daily traffic is much. But maybe his site is resource intensive.

I paid $8 monthly. This was several years ago.

Yes, my site was some resource consuming - running on Roboscripts.
Now on VPS i am running 20 such sites and it has zero load on ~2000 daily traffic.

I was looking at Contabo (after reading your post) and it looks very good value for money. But then I saw that the charge for technical help is 99 Euros a month. So quite expensive unless you're technically proficient with self-managed VPS.

Their hosting is self managed. Your are getting VPS with OS only - the rest you should do by yourself (control panel, adding domains, installing scripts etc).

Yep, sounds like you have been hit by an attack and they're going the path of least resistance. Noone will be doing DDOS mitigation for you on a shared plan. If you're open to upgrading to a VPS - we have some great plans and the network is secured against DDOS. Reach out please and let me make an offer for you.

Exactly.

Most businesses consider 10% to be a healthy profit margin, but so many adult affiliates don't want to pay more than 1% of their income on good hosting, even though it would probably at least double their sales in the long run.
