Latest Hosting News on Reddit

We are an online business based in Australia, and we keep receiving false DMCA claims from people claiming to represent big companies, regarding products of our own design (we have our own original design documents and everything). It’s tiring, mentally damaging, and costly to deal with. Speaking to lawyers etc. is really costly, and going through any court case would have a cost that is unfeasible (which these claimants are counting on). We’ve already left Shopify last year and rebuilt on WordPress, and our lawyers say we are fine legally – but the process of being suspended doesn’t necessarily depend on legality with web hosts, it’s more about their policies and how much they are willing to support you in the face of false claims. They seem to capitulate and suspend etc straight away, especially if faced with what looks like big company making a claim. Looking for a decent DMCA-ignore host that will allow our Australian website to run well/at a good speed. Thanks in advance. submitted by /u/maguywar [link] [comments]

Hi everyone, we are currently starting to build websites for clients, and we really want to start the right way and scale properly in the future, since this market looks very promising to us. I have been researching several reseller hosting providers such as SiteGround, InMotion Hosting, KnownHost, and Verpex, but I wanted to ask here to get a better opinion based on real experiences. The type of websites we want to offer are mainly WordPress + WooCommerce + specialized themes for product catalogs. Initially, most of them would work in catalog mode, with sales redirected to WhatsApp, but they should be ready to activate payment gateways later. I have seen standard reseller hosting options that offer around 2 GB RAM and 200K inodes per cPanel account, but I have real doubts about scalability when the plan has a global storage pool of only 80–100 GB SSD or NVMe. My main questions are: Which independent hosting providers would you recommend that do not double or triple the renewal price after the first year, and that allow clean storage scalability? For catalogs with around 200 to 1000 products and optimized images, are 2 GB RAM and 200K inodes per cPanel account enough when using LiteSpeed, or do WooCommerce queries become a problem quickly? Would you recommend moving to a managed VPS as soon as a site starts getting close to the 200K inode limit? If a client grows legitimately because of inventory, product variations, and generated thumbnails, and starts approaching 200K inodes, is it viable to manage it with deep cleanups of the database, emails, cache, and files? Or is the only real solution to avoid penalizing the shared server to migrate that specific account to its own managed VPS? And the final, most important question. For this type of website product catalogs, is reseller hosting actually recommended? We are looking for something solid so we do not have to move clients after only a few months due to downtime or limits that could put their business at risk. Which hosting providers are you actually using in production and would recommend? Thanks! submitted by /u/AdministrativeBat945 [link] [comments]

I have a WordPress website project stored on GitHub and I want to show it to clients for free without paying for hosting initially. What’s the best free method/platform to deploy or preview a WordPress site directly from GitHub? I’m mainly looking for: Easy deployment from GitHub Free hosting/trial options Ability to show dynamic WordPress pages properly Good for client demos/portfolio I know GitHub Pages only works for static sites, so I’m looking for alternatives or workflows people actually use. Would appreciate recommendations and real experiences. Thanks! submitted by /u/Playful-Ad-6617 [link] [comments]
