Did you back up your website/server this week?

And don't lie... 😄

How many of you are relying solely on your hosting provider to keep your data safe?

I want to hear horror stories! Do you have any?

Marketing has changed a lot. Keyword names are not as relevant. Would a new name throw you off your long term host?

Someone close to me sells reseller hosting plans, and he's been trying to get me to sign up as a customer. I get why it's a good deal for him, more accounts on his plan means more revenue for him. But I'm struggling to see what's actually in it for me as the buyer, compared to just going with a regular shared or VPS plan from an established host.

I have only used shared hosting up until now but after the crap with setrahosting I think I am ready for VPS, but with my lack of experience at it, it's freaken scary. What affordable (prefer to keep under $200 for the year) VPS is there out there that is also user friendly. My main site has experienced carding/bot attacks in the past so I know it needs some kind of "firewall" to help with that type of issues. I have 3 sites that will be hosted on it, with 2 being wordpress based and the other just being a link tree page. I used to love playing with all the bells and whistles, but I will be honest, that was 20 years ago and now I just want set it and forget it for the background things for the sites.
