    Lots of people have hosted with Forcium Hosting. I created an account with them just to test them out for fun and have found out they aren't really that great.

    Let me be honest. They aren't very good and their servers are always down.

    I've been watching their servers and from what I have noticed so far their servers seem to of been down since 4am this morning and are still down.

    Always test website speeds with a server, your computer doesn't mean the initial or the final of one site's efficiency because sometimes your ISP or downloads will slow down browsing or even halting certain high bandwidth-usage sites . Use this tool, http://www.iwebtool.com/speed_test. I just tried it with your site and the load time for your site is 0.78 seconds, not bad for the moment.

    Nevertheless, don't be too carried away with rumors and bad comments from your host's clients as certain downtime is actually not the cause of the host's server/s.

    i tried them, i lasted about 3 days and told them, c'ya.
    their service was spotty at best. the support just plain sucked, and their still trying to bill me. i marked their email as spam.

    do yourself a favor and find someone else before its too late.

    Yeah I noticed the site is loading slow. Maybe there is a problem with the net or the server itself.
    By the way you got a nice site there :)

    Hey Guys,

    I have some updates on what happened with forcium host (as I am the new customer relations director, as well as the support director.) Four days ago (before I was brought on board) Forcium Host noticed that their main server was having a major slow down. They raised a ticket with their x-server management company, Platinum Server Managment, and then they waited, praying that PSM would respond quickly. Day 1 went by, no response. Day 2 goes by, no response. Day 3 hits, and I am contacted, and my services requested. I begin working on their server, and the first thing I notice is that everything looks fine, but that apache is very slow. I contacted one of the in house technicians at the datacenter through the owner, and we realized two things.

    1. That apache was overloading.
    2. The server was under a denial of service attack.

    We raised the number of requests that apache could process per second, as well as decreased the timeouts to 0.00001 seconds. We installed software firewalls, as well as activated a new hardware based firewall. All of the above changes restored service to our customers, and we are now working on finding the network that attacked us so we can file a complaint.

    Thank you,
    Erik Van Norstrand
    Customer Service Director

    Why not move to a speedier host? That might solve all of your problems.
