Forty days on dedicated hosting
Posted January 15th, 2010.
It’s been a little over a month since posting my initial experience on dedicated hosting, and so far, its been 40 days, 10 hours and 4 minute of bliss.
Like many, I initially started on shared hosting which was okay to start, but as time went by ( and presumably more people shared the same server ) things went from bad to worse.
With traffic growing and my site being plagued by slow or failed page loads shared hosting just wasn’t cutting it any more, but at 5 times the price I was hesitant to take the next step. I shouldn’t have been.
With my new host Media Temple, the performance and level of support that comes with there dedicated servers has been above reproach.
Two thumbs up.
I’ve spoken with many people who were in the same boat, unsatisfied with their shared hosting but hesitant to move up. What I can tell you from my experience is, I’ll never use shared hosting again.
