Network Solutions Hosting and Website down

Discussion in 'Web Hosting' started by anthonycea, Jul 11, 2004.

    Network Solutions was sold by Verisign a while back, the company is having problems with hosting websites, even their own site is down.

    When you hit their site you can not even get past the home page, it gives you a Rating Label Invalid notice and will not let you get past the home page if you can even get to the home page.

    What a joke these guys are. :eek:

    I knew that Verisign had purchased them. I didn't know that they had spun them off or sold them.

    I find domain registration sites in general a bit of a joke. Some of them are anything but intuitive in their navigation. Others are slow as hell. Support is often non existent or very tardy.

    For sites that are more or less at the core of the Internet, as a genre they suck.

    Yea if your site is down you call them up and they tell you they will escalate the issue and it will be resolved in 3 to 5 days.

    What a bunch of crap, then they have these do it yourself website builders where you have no control over the code.

    It is great if you want to put up a site for $50.00 a year in hosting fees but you can not customize anything or alter code.

    Maybe I should just hire you Compar, I would be much better off, I will let you know when I hit the Jackpot so I can afford your services. :mad:

    Well let's put them on 500 different hosts. Interlink them all to build PR and then start selling advertising from them. We could become rich and famous with an asset like that. :)

    Until then I must put up the sites one at a time. :)
