I’ve been with Dreamhost for 7 Months. It’s been the worst 7 Months of Hosting I could ever imagine. Prior to that I was with Hosting Matters. That was the best months of hosting I could ever imagine.
Guess what?
Another outage.
I believe its possible I’ve had more downtime this year than uptime. I’m definelty switching as soon as I can have access to my server. Which may be never now that they are set on censoring me and others.
The proof is in the pudding here folks. I had 2 comments removed not via automation but manually by one of the admins for speaking words of frustration for having 2 open support tickets for about a week and now a crashed server.
Server problems have plagued this company for the last 12 Months and its only gotten worse over the last few months. Now to have for the last week customer service/tech support ignore my complaints and server problems, then to delete my comments on their own corporate blog when I bring it up is NO WAY to run a company.
Censoring your unhappy customers is a sure way to end up on the bad end of the business. Just ask any major company. The moment you quit listening to customers is the moment you start losing money.
I can personally no longer recommend Dreamhost to any blog user. That’s my final word.
RIP Dreamhost
From Martha a Dreamhost Customer:
Thanks for letting us know what is going on and keep up the hard work!However, I am absolutely stunned by the censorship of some of these posts. None of them used swear words. I have four tabs open with the comments on each and posts that are against Dreamhost have been removed!
Very concerned.
BTW Captchas aren’t very friendly either.
