    I've heard that before. No disrespect but I've been down that road before and to be quite frank, they are all the same. This one just happened to last the longest before it too failed!

    Do you think it's just HTML pages that can be replicated using archive.org? Or do you think you can redo the site easily from scratch?

    If not, we can have your site transferred ASAP when we get in touch with VisageHosting.

    I have several sites with visage hosting, but all down too. I'm looking at other hosting providers, as had a couple of issues with them recently, and frankly I've had enough.

    They're up now.

    I had backups, plus I use X-Site-pro for most of my sites, so I could have moved if I wanted but this is not normal for them. They were checked by webhostingstuff.com only yesterday and given a 99.95% uptime rating.

    Well if it's been 8 hours, it's got to be lower than 99.9%

    If they don't at least offer a refund, feel free to send me a PM and we can have your sites transferred quickly w/o hassle.

    Got an explanation for the downtime:

    Annoying but understandable.

    How is that understandable? I'm really not trying to bring this company down, but datacenters usually contact web hosts before temporarily suspending their server.

    Only LayeredTech would do something like that too...

    I said understandable, I didn't say acceptable.

    It has been enough hassle for me to consider going elsewhere. I have already found a new potential host. No more small companies.
