Latest Hosting News on Reddit

I’ve been hosting a WordPress website through WordPress. However, when editing the site using the built-in Gutenberg editor the editor is slow and sluggish. Meaning moving blocks, inserting images, is a chore. After some research, i’ve realized that hostgator does not have a good customer review average. Any alternatives? submitted by /u/Independent-Ball3215 [link] [comments]

Wix just taught me a masterclass in how a billion-dollar company can cling to $400 like it’s the last can of beans in a fallout shelter. Here’s the story: My Wix hosting renewed early—renewing the upcoming year before the current year is even over. I didn’t use the new term, didn’t access it, didn’t consent to it. I turned off auto-renew the moment I saw the charge. I asked for a refund. A simple, manual refund. The kind every modern company does without needing to consult the Dead Sea Scrolls. Wix’s response? A long sermon about Section 6.3 of their Terms of Use, policy doctrine delivered with the enthusiasm of someone reading tax code aloud. They proudly announced the decision was “final,” as if a tribunal had convened at dawn to deny me. Now, let’s be absolutely clear for anyone watching: Wix CAN refund this at any time. No law prevents it. No technical barrier stops it. No cosmic force binds them. It’s not “we cannot refund you.” It’s “we refuse to refund you.” Why? Because Wix has apparently decided that $400 squeezed out of an unused renewal is worth more than a loyal customer. And this is what amazes me: the sheer short-sighted brilliance of it. Why maintain goodwill, when you can cling to a few hundred dollars and inspire someone to warn thousands of others never to trust your company? Why build a brand when you can build resentment? Why keep customers when you can keep their money and send them away promising to tell everyone they know? This is strategy in the same way that setting your own shoes on fire is strategy. So yes—Wix gets to keep the $400. But here’s what they lose: A customer (permanently) Any future revenue from me Every referral I might have made Every ounce of goodwill And now—this very public post that will live forever online If a company shows you that their policies matter more than their people, believe them. And avoid them. Wix had a choice: Refund a charge for a service year that hasn’t even begun, or burn a bridge. They chose the bonfire. submitted by /u/PresentationIll8747 [link] [comments]

Hey guys, I have recently built a site and it is getting around 20k visitor a day with 99% bounce rate. My hosting is super slow and it is taking my site more than 1 minute to load. My site is built on wordpress and it is well optimize. Even at worse it should not take more then 4 seconds to load. I need a hosting plan that is fast, must have 2gb space and have atleast capacity to serve 300000 visitors monthly. I’m barely making money out of this site so it must be cheap. I kno it is too much to ask but any advice would be highly appreciated. submitted by /u/himalyan_yogi [link] [comments]

Buenas a todos, soy prácticamente nuevo en estos lares jejeje Necesitaba hacer una consulta técnica y por sus experiencias. ¿Que Hosting recomiendan actualmente? He visto por ejemplo, Bluehosting, Hostingnet, Namecheap (he visto que también lo recomiendan .. pero), DonWeb, entre otros. Varios me han recomendado DonWeb, pero algunos han tenido una que otra “experiencia” en este último. Desde ya gracias =) submitted by /u/D4rkBlu7 [link] [comments]
