I am tired of the constant downtimes Philhosting.net is serving their clients… Just today, my blog, other customers of Philhosting.net and even their own website of Philhosting.net was down… Downtime started early morning, perhaps 11pm yesterday up to 10am today..
What kind of service is this?
Their tagline, Affordable Solutions for everyone true…
but what about reliability?!
… I need to switch webhosts asap… haha any suggestions?
Starts to backup his files for fear of philhosting.net being a sore loser… Let this be a lesson to everyone, remember that price is not the only factor to consider when choosing a webhosting… 
Hey guys, if you have suggestions on a nice webhosting to switch too… please suggest asap.. I want to leave this piece of **** webhosting.. haha

6Hehe
@Eli and Winston - I’ll take it into account in my research for a new webhost.
@Pinoyunited - Yup, that’s what I need to do for now. haha
The only thing that keeps me from leaving completely is that I still have 4 months left in the 6months that I paid for. haha

8Wow! 3 days! I read in JP the eagleman’s post that Philhosting was adding a new server last weekend that’s why there was a downtime. But why did it take 3 days for your blog to get online? hmmm

9it’s not worth waiting until that period ends. I must say, viited you a few times before and it’s down. same with pinoyblogero. however pinoy am website seems online most of the time. perhaps you can ask him which hosting he’s on.
how much did you pay anyway? not that i’ll give you the money he he he.

10I paid for it cheap only. I still have not finished my research on which hosting I would like to switch too.
andi
11i just got an anonymous comment on my blog…comment was something about me as naninira ng puri……a simple research on the IP recorded was the location was from Makati…i was able to track where it came from….guess what..from the philhosting office..looks like they don’t like being reviewed…i remember giving them a “philhosting sucks” review…it saddens me that they have to retaliate that way when they should just be improving their service..if they get to read this..peace philhosting….a review is something you should not take personally….trabaho lang…if you did your job right…you won’t be getting any comment like that..:)

16yah. it sucks. it’s good for making cheap static pages. they have a promo now, so maybe get the 25 peso one, get 50% off, you have some cheap website that will at least get crawled by the major search engines.
still, i’m going to put up my own reseller with another good host from the US, i’ll let you guys know.

19@David - Hi David, I just checked out their site and they do have a promo on valentines. But isn’t it just for annual plans? Please correct me if I’m wrong.

20Im also hosted on Philhosting, did you move your site to a new host? And if so, mind if you tell me how your new host is better than philhosting? Im also considering moving my site. Thanks!

21@Dominic - Hello Dominic, I moved my site to a new host and it is HostGator. Well, so far, my uptime has been excellent compared to when I was in Philhosting. But my main reason for moving was because I ran out of bandwidth in my hosting plan in philhosting and HostGator has a better plan.
