You make it seem as if (mt) hosting was the golden standard. Well it wasn't . If you ask me, I'd tell you that you thought it was good because it had a tight website and was expensive.
If I had a beer every time in the last decade I heard a designer say "I need to finish my portfolio, just bought a hosting package on (mt), they're the best, right?", I'd have a liver failure by now.
Time and again, people who work in marketing (that's you QBN'rs), bought into good marketing. Not saying it's a bad thing, mind.
No, they weren't the best hosting company out there. They were ok, but with a history of problems. I read many comments yesterday saying GoDaddy was actually more reliable in comparison. So there.
In the end, I'll quote a classic:
"Nothing is fucked here, Dude. Come on, you're being very un-Dude."- < this.utopian
- I've only experienced one time GoDaddy failed on me in the last 10 years.monospaced
- "GoDaddy was actually more reliable..."
I was nodding my head in agreement up until that lineukit2 - That's just random opinions from yesterday, I never used either for hosting, so couldn't tell myself.shaft
