My current webhosting company, Featureprice, sucks<\/a>. Featureprice sucks<\/a> because I’ve had a trouble ticket open with them for a week, my site went down for over 24 hours yesterday, and when I called up their tech support number last night to complain, I had to listen to a three minute bitchy condescending message about how if you people would learn to read your manuals you 64,000 wouldn’t be tying up the phone line for the three people who actually had a legitimate complaint. Therefore they won’t even bother to help you unless you have a ticket number, which you get from sending in a trouble report via email and getting a response from them. Problem is they don’t send responses, and if you call the tech support number you listen to a three minute long whine and then they say they don’t have anyone to help you anyway, click.<\/p>\n

I’ve prepaid $25\/month for Featureprice, but www.featureprice.com sucks<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The more times that Google picks up the link “Featureprice sucks<\/a>“, the higher the link in their index. Therefore someone searching for “featureprice” would instead get my page describing how Featureprice sucks<\/a>. This is something I encourage you all to do on your page – link to www.featureprice.com with the text Featureprice sucks<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Even NetMechanic agrees<\/a> that Featureprice sucks<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I’m moving web services to a new hosting company that I researched intensively last night and found only one complaint for (on the YourHostSucks Forums<\/a>), which was directly addressed by the head dude of the company in a mature and levelheaded manner. That’s more than I can say for a lot<\/i> of net services, which seem to be run by the skinny geeks from high school who are now getting their petty revenge on the rest of the world (hello, Texas.net!).<\/p>\n

I’ll check them out for a while and post back with how they fare. Hopefully the InterNIC will propogate my changes tonight.<\/p>\n
