    Hello...

    I have "seo hosting" which is sub division of hostgator.

    I know a few people have had issues about to much bandwidth usage..
    but our account has No limits or Restrictions and offers much including
    different C class and IPs and the ability to change IPs or add more if needed.

    thx

    its stories like these why i tell everyone to stay away from hosts like this that oversell.

    this is why i use a semi-dedicated host for my directories.

    Ok, I was just asking because too many running at once will most definitely hammer the processor and cause stuff like this. It's why I went full dedicated hosting.

    (btw, I did get your PM ;) )

    If you have a directory or two a VPS is the way forward, nightly backups and 99.9% uptime give peace of mind as well, they are not that expensive either and once your on a vps you will wonder why you did'nt get on one sooner.

    We used godaddy for about a month and I hated them, there was always some issue.

    But it was easy to resolve, I told my husband to find a new host or find a new wife... :D

    Then he went with hostgator and we lived happily ever after. ;)

    Are there any children now after moving?
    If so...
    Please do not gave them a name 'Hostgator'.
    Doesn't sound great :D

    I may go dedicated server too.

    Thanks for the advice, and I have got 2 offers, high CPU (Pentium 4 2.8) with 256M RAM and low CPU (C1.7) with 1gb RAM. Which one do you think is better?
