GoDaddy seems to be insecure, what are good alternatives?

    I see some strange things happening on my godaddy hosting. All my sites have a 302 redirect.

    Here is an example:
    HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily =>
    Content-Length => 0
    Location => /?88ae90d0


    I don't know what the hack is this and the guys from godaddy keep telling me that they cannot replicate the issue. They suck big time!!!

    So, I am starting to feel insecure there, what are some good alternatives to move? I have a godaddy linux shared server and I need a similar package from a better hosting company. What are your suggestions?

    Godaddy is not at all good at Hosting.It was started as a domain registrar and is only good at it

    Go for a hosting company that sells only hosting.Hostgator,HostMonster,HostNine...etc are great web hosts

    I don't recommend godaddy for web hosting. I don't know what your budget is but I would check out hostgator or a2 hosting.

    My advise for you is ask for free trial let say 3 day before you buy from them.

    I have posted the same thing on my top1forum and a GoDaddy representative registered and sent me a PM. Here it is:

    In the meantime, the guys from their support have no idea what is that and why it is happening. They told me that they're gonna check. I asked them to send me an e-mail when they have an answer because I want to know what is this about.

    Here's their reply:
    So.. they suck big time! Never buy hosting from GoDaddy! Never ever!


    P.S. I have purchased a hosting package from another company and I am starting to move my sites.

    I think that must be a hint to you to change your web hosting company

    Well I can not comment the GoDaddy hosting service because I have obviously never used it, but I saw a lot of complaints in the popular web hosting abd dot-com business forums about their hosting service. Sadly, they aren't alos the number one domain registrar anymore...
