Blue Host

golddiggerguy · 07-02-2011, 11:02:27 PM

I have a few accounts with Blue Host for a batches of WP installs as they have 100 MySQL DB accounts at an ok price.

A while back they emailed me to say my file count is way too high and you need to cut back or we'll deactivate it. I cut back what I could and emailed them saying a standard WordPress install x 100 is more than your stated file count and so doesn't reflect fairly.

They said ok just keep the amount down.

A year on and they have emailed again about another account and am just going through deleting extra themes, backups, crap plugins and anything else that stands out. I'm about 30% of the way through and just wondering any one else had the same email?

It is making me think about WP more and how a stream lined version should be released as it can be a bit heavy at times.

You could just buy from a host who can provide what they sell?

This is true

But having already dropped 100 + sites onto their server and have 1+year of hosting left it's not at the top of my list to move them all.

I wouldn't get it with them again if I was wanting mini sites on wordpress.

The size and cheapness is shiny for a lot of people until you realise you can't use them ideally.
