We are on a new Server
(7 votes, average: 2.57 out of 5)
Loading ...As you all know our site has been going up and down for a few days. We apologize for this…
This was because we were facing bruteforce attacks, and a loads of spammers. The spammers were able to get through the image captcha and almost added 2000 spam comments, that had to be removed manually.
Due to your server loads, we had to shift from to mediatemple as their VPS was not so stable for us.
Our webserver used to restart at least 4-5 times everyday, and we were totally UNHAPPY!!!!
So we just got an agent to figure out a solution for us and moved it to a intermediate host [futurehosting.biz] and found out that the intermediate host was also really really bad, lets say worse than Mediatemple.
Finally we just found out that the best people who can support is will be the one who can understand what we require and provide is within our annual budget.
We just called up zone.net and made a few inquires, and finally we managed to get a VM200 package. Also they just have an amazing support. Our server is really beefed up which serves around 25 php requests per second. They have hardened the server to the max installing Bruteforce Detection packages, and Firewalls.
The complete server was set up within 6 hours, with the latest versions of apache, php and mysql installed along with optimizations. Also to let you know that we have upgraded to Wordpress 2.3.2
We will continue pumping new stuff out here…Thank you for all your support.

Good host. I’ll keep it in mind for my clients. Thanks!. By the way, you might want to check out JS Spam Block which uses a captcha-like algorithm and has a fall-back function for non Javascript browsers.

It seems you have to change the Hosting Company name in your footer

I am hosted with zone.net as well, and I must say I am loving it.
I thought my site was the biggest they had hosted, but your site is by means even larger!
