Opinions on DreamHost?? $10 for the year. Halloween Special
 
I figure for $10 I would use it to throw up some little blogs just for linking purposes. Any experience with them?

DigitalTheory 10-31-2010 11:03 PM

uh they have had that special for years.

I have been with dreamhost for about 7-8 years now and would recommend them. I pay extra for a "private server" and if I ever have issues with it I just reboot it.

Great deals here

Jarmusch 10-31-2010 11:16 PM

It's $10 for a year, why do you need opinions? Are you afraid the 83 cents per month might not be worth it?

RaiderCash_Dominik 10-31-2010 11:20 PM

ouch. Good one dude. Your day is complete.

It's more about wasting time with them than it is wasting the 10 bucks.

Dodododa 10-31-2010 11:21 PM

I feel like such a sucker paying $8 a month. I'm going to cancel my hosting with them.

For 83 cents a month you should know more or less what you're getting yourself into. :)

do you have icq or skype?

loreen 11-01-2010 04:34 AM

run. Run. RUN.

Just had a horrible experience with Dreamhost (had a VPS there), I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

StinkyPink 11-01-2010 06:11 AM

I really don't get the dreamhost hate here. I had 3 tubes on a shared plan before moving up to a VPS and I only ever had one problem which was due to some conflict between scripts.

I have a blog that gets 1 million page views a month and it was running slow, constantly crashing my server, it was a wordpress issue. I added a cache plugin and no more crashes. Support was quick to get me fixed up no problems and I KNOW I am using more than my alloted resources.

I just wished it was easier getting FFMPEG and other modules to work on the VPS.

Forkbeard 11-01-2010 06:16 AM

Run away, run away, run far far away.

Obviously it's not about the money. It's about the support, or lack thereof.

Their stuff is fine until you have a problem, then you're fucked.

So using them is like using a freehost back in the bad old days ... if you've got something that is genuinely worthless to your enterprise, why not?

On the other hand, if you've got something that's genuinely worthless to your enterprise, why bother?

I have been involved in half a dozen clusterfucks that centered around "rescue somebody from dreamhost and get them moved to a real host somewhere so they could get their shit working again". Life is too short.

awxm 11-01-2010 06:31 AM

Amerinoc just saved you a whole world of pain. Take XSV's promo and run.

I was pretty happy with Dreamhost too, for several years but then they destroyed my traffic. I thought the same thing you did, and didn't understand why everyone kept hating on them until I went through it myself. Some lessons just have to be learned the hard way.

Emailed billing and it has been adjusted now. Thanks Amerinoc :thumbsup

You have to select the "annual" billing option for the coupon to work. :winkwink:

Maybe hasn't updated in the panel somewhere, we just set up another new server for more of these.

This is what I see when looking at your plan.
Used Max
Disk Space (MB) 0.0 51200
Bandwidth (GB) 0.0000 5000.0

Not beyond the possibility that I missed something, but I'm not seeing what you are. :)

Who cares? AmeriNOC is 100x better than Dreamhost anyway. Stop complaining, just be lucky you're with a host who isn't shit.

Yes, the recent upgrade to the billing system broke the built custom integration we did and there is a new version of the help desk coming out, so we are going to focus on integrating with that version as they changed most of the code for it. You can register directly at https://support.amerinoc.com.

jonnydoe 11-01-2010 11:17 AM

For the use you specified, Dreamhost is fine. I have an account and my GF has one there. She is on a different server and her sites run great. Mine are slower but acceptable for the cost. I have actually had decent support from them when I had some issues with hers like getting crons set up properly. At the end of the day you get what you pay for and if you are paying cheap for some feeder blogs then go for it.

My ICQ is above and in my profile, or hit us up on live chat, it definitely works. Once you enter your domain in, then the billing cycle will show on the ajax form.

fatfoo 11-01-2010 05:33 PM

I have not tried DreamHost. I tried http://www.justhost.com - affordable prices and great live 24/7 support. Get all your questions answered live in instant messenger chat before making any buying decision.

Damn, dude. I just renewed my Amerinoc virtual account for another year a couple of months back for $85. Including the dedicated I have with you guys, I think you should toss me one of these accounts for free :winkwink:

It doesn't hurt to ask lol... :thumbsup
