Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Reseller Hosting : HTTPme of Windows Reselling

[officer]

I am looking for a windows reselling host whose prices are decent (not the lowest) and whose reputation is rock solid i.e an experienced windows host whose support is prompt and extremely impressive.

In other words... I am looking for the "HTTPme of Windows Reselling"!

Any suggestions on who in your opinion is the "HTTPme of Windows Reselling"? Please give a brief explanation why your suggested windows host is the "HTTPme of Windows Reselling"?

Have a look at www.hostnexus.com / www.resellernexus.com. They have a large community just like HttpMe. Check it out at www.nexusportal.net

Hi Elix,

After doing a little searching, though HostNexus may be technically good at what they do, I don't think they deserve the title of being the "HTTPme of Windows Reselling" because they seem to have pissed off quite a number of members in this forum.

I am seeking the opinions of the gurus like you in this forum because I want to host with a great hosting company who is very similar to HTTPme in server management, customer attitudes, reputation, etc. but offers Windows unlike HTTPme.

What I personally sense about HTTPme is that their support attitude is to prevent problems from occuring in the first place. And if and when problems do occur, then they rectify the problem promptly in an appropriate manner followed with proper communication. They do slip up occasionally, but the occasions are rare.

Had HTTPme offered Windows, I wouldn't have even bothered to make this post. Price is not the main issue for me. I am searching for one of the few really good Windows host that I can partner with.

You will have a few "pissed off" customers when you reach the 1000+ mark. It's not easy to keep everyone happy, and keep in mind theirs probably people displeased with httpme but they either don't know about this place or neglect to post here.

Correctly said, coight! Every medium sized to large sized company will have their ratio of "pissed off" customers. Its just that the good companies of these have a much smaller ratio than the not so good ones.

BTW, your company is one of the better ones in my opinion, so I am sure you understand what I mean when I say what I say!

Who, in your personal opinion, is the "HTTPme of Windows Reselling"? Opinions of industry leaders like you will really help me make a good choice.

You may want to consider http://www.hostway.com. Netcraft ranked Hostway the most reliable Web hosting site recently.

In that case, why not check out www.jodohost.com.

Cheers,

Hi again, Elix!

I am having a look at their site just now. Will do a search on WHT subsequently. Thanks a lot for suggesting jodohost. Please refer me to a few more great ones if you can think of any.

I can't comment on any hosts I have not used officer. Other hosts give opinions but I don't want you to come back three months later upset at a suggestion I gave

Hello again Coight,

I tried to PM you but your mailbox is full.

Thanks so much for taking the time out to reply to my thread. You mentioned "I don't want you to come back three months later upset at a suggestion I gave" which I can totally understand. But it is the opinions & suggestions of extremely successful hosts like you that I really need.

Successful people like you and some of the other gurus here have the intelligence & insight to ignore crap when you see or hear it. Even though you may not have directly used a great windows host, you are able to recognize who is good or bad simply from the little snippets you hear/read in this forum.

I am acutely aware no host is perfect for anybody. What I am looking for is for a great Windows host who has built up a reputation for running an operation as efficently as HTTPme or Myacen.

Hence, I would really be grateful if I received one or more suggestions from you. You've been around the forum for eons, so I will be valuing your suggestions greatly.

Thanks.

People are suggesting hosts they obviously haven't used and are not giving reasons why "their" suggested host is up there, apart from what they have observed.

Try www.fluidhosting.com for windows web hosting.

I have used them for 2 1/2 years for all my business web sites.

If you want to see a 500+ page Frontpage web site running at Fluid Hosting on a multi domain windows account try www.chicagojobresource.com

Few minor isssues and great uptime.

There's been some folks displeased with httpme (even when I owned httpme). There's been some of those threads on WHT, but they have been few and far between. I take pride in the main reason for that was fast communication with clients with server issues etc, and the proper resolving of issues privately, before they blow up on a public forum.

If an issue makes it out_in_the_open, on a forum, then I would have considered that, in most instances, a failure on my part, in not containing or successfully resolving that issue. Sure, you can't please everyone, but we gave it a damn good shot.

officer, best wishes in your search for a good windows reseller. Thank you for your very kind words.

officer, I am not sure about other, but had tried cyberservers.net. Their services are good enough for me 24/7 supporting staff, even slow sometimes, but they do answer. stable servers. last time I was with them, they moved to The Planet DC. You can check with them about this. The reason I have left is: upgrading to our own windows server if you are still looking for a windows reseller account, visit their website at www.cybersevers.net
