    I do appreciate their tech support. Very knowledgable.. but it is the down time that happens... that gets me the most.. I've just been keeping an eye on this... and recording it as needed...

    it is network uptime .. means network connection to server .. it will always 100% in all hosts

    server uptime will be different .. sometime apache may stop responding due to high connectins .. watever... serveruptime will be around 75%- 85% in majority of hosts

    Overseller means that they sell more space than they have.

    For example, they sell 300gb space to 3 the same clients, and they say to all 3: we offer you 300gb space. In this case they just hope that the buyer doesnt use all the things he bought. So they are actually sharing the same space.

    This happens alot at United States dedicated server hosts, who claim to sell 100mbit flat fee servers below 50$. Really impossible, but they just oversell 1:10. They claim to have no limits on their servers, but in fact they are servers sharing the same connections.

    Really a shame, those people create a bad name for all of us.
