I have been looking at their Rudolph Mini and Rudolph 2 packages, but seeing how much downtime people have been experiencing I am a little worried. Actually, I don't care too much about website downtime, but I can't have my email go down... period. Then again, I guess you get what you (are willing to) pay for. @Ivy: Keep us posted on how it goes.

I'm still with THC. I decided to give them another chance and see how it goes. As I've mentioned in my post, these guys are still solid when it comes to support. And after my blog entry, they have sent me an apology letter and have promptly upgraded their servers. :) @Anthony: That’s pretty good info, thanks! I’m still with THC.

I was weary about using Plesk. It has a nicer UI but seems rather laggy to me... probably since it's graphically heavy. However, I chatted with WHG's online support and it seems they have installed cPanel 11.2 now so you can use Plesk or cPanel.

In my case the problems have been four: 1. Domain resolution problems that have led inexistent pages to make it to Google's index 2. PHP errors and slowness when trying to use CURL (I already tried the very same code in another host and no problem is found, and works WAY faster) 3. Webshell stops working for no apparent reason, which has delayed me in development up to a week 4. Finally, part of the troubleshooting they did around issue #1 ended up bringing 3 of my websites down. One thing I do like and is making me have a hard time in changing is the dedicated IP thing. I did not know what this would be useful for, but now I can see an advantage in offering services having my customer's domain point to my dedicated IP (like Blogger and Tumblr do). I have found the dedicated IP in my other choice of hosting but their servers insist in having me manually register each DNS name that I plan to use against the website. Any advise as for this 'feature' elsewhere? Hello,

The third-party site I use to monitor my domain shows that it's currently at 99.1%, which may seem like nitpicking, but I don't know if it's really normal that my site's frequently down (albeit briefly) at some point at least every other day. I emailed support and they said they were working on it, so...*shrug* I suppose I'll stick it out a little while longer to see how it goes.
