Comments on: Not just Another Ordinary Fatcow Review http://www.hostingsthatsuck.com/fatcow-sucks/ Searching for Web Hosts that Suck the Least Sat, 20 Mar 2010 03:09:18 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Renier http://www.hostingsthatsuck.com/fatcow-sucks/comment-page-1/#comment-3286 Renier Thu, 18 Feb 2010 06:00:56 +0000 http://www.hostingsthatsuck.com/?p=503#comment-3286 I have been with fatcow now for about 4 months, and host about 8 domains with some sub domains with them, I am in South Africa and was looking for a better priced host with good service three of my sites I host video and photos and it works great. In South africa I paid R500 wich is $50 and got only 500mb of disk space and 5 gig bandwidth, since I moved to fatcow I have only had great service, I have had no problems with anything, they always post a notice on your panel if they are going to do updates or if they are experiance a certain problem. but before i experiance the problem it is fixed. I really like the freedom I have with them.

I had a friend even help me that had created multiple web pages in the past and knew what she was doing. We still had problems, we were on the phone with them 3 or more times a day and had multiple problems. We were going crazy nothing was working we would input something and it wouldn't show, add a picture and get none, have to pages at the same time. You name it it went wrong, except one thing. The customer service was great. I was always able to get a hold of someone and they would always help me. We would get one problem fixed and then another one would pop up. I will say though that after a while I was tired of not getting a working web page. I was going to cancel and spoke with a guy that I cant remember his name,(I wish I could) he asked a lot of questions and said that he didnt want me to quit. I was like Im sorry but I am going somewhere else, nothing seems to work on my web page and it has constant problems. He said that he use to work in the IT department before customer service and said that the problems I was having seemed very strange. He said that he couldn't explain what was wrong with my account but if I was willing to open another account and cancell the old one he would work with me to see If the new account works better. It did I had to start a new web page, but in 2 days I had it up and running and pictures, able to make changes and have them work. It became like heaven working on the web page. We dont know why my first page had so many problems but I say it just happened and it will probly happen to someone else, if it does just try again. So in closing I am glad I never closed my account, Fat Cow customer service is great and will work with you to figure out any problems. They said that my problems were very strange but continued to work with me. Fat Cow is great in my opinion, problems happen and Fat Cow came through. I would recommend Fat Cow to any body that wants to creative a web page, prices are great and once again customer service is also.

I tried Wix - for two sites - at 1st the design phase was wonderful - and easy - however then had glitches - and then it was slow. Wrote customer service (no chat) - and never heard a word. Someone in tech actually posted they had replied. I have like 7-10 auto reply mess that gave me a number and said someone would contact me. Gone. Then I started looking - Some of these sites are just plain strange. Only thing about Cow is that they won't let you test drive the designer. Other than that - they have answered most questions quickly. One prob is that I think all these chat room service people all work for many hosts. Strange thing - sometimes really good answers - then a few times - it is like they are taking to ten people at one time - slow to chat - and ask some strange quesions. Overall I am going to try the Cow. I just thought I would warn any new lookers. I would not imagine how good Wix was only to fall on the 99th yard. Some host sites are just too complicated for people like me. The cow has my vote but will write again after trying for a few months. I have not signed up but thought I would post something.

It will be the easiest way to achieve what you want. Fatcow plan will give you only one (1) cPanel. You may need cPanel for each of your domain from what I understand, and in that cas you will need a WHM with your plan. The <a href="http://www.bestwebhostreseller.com" rel="nofollow">best web host reseller</a> as many people probably already know is <a href="http://hostingsthatsuck.com/go/hostgator-reseller.php" rel="nofollow">Hostgator</a>. In addition, if you want to save money during the first year, you can try <a href="http://hostingsthatsuck.com/go/pronethosting-linuxreseller.php" rel="nofollow">Pronethosting reseller plan</a> at super cheap price as they currently having a <a href="http://hostingsthatsuck.com/go/pronethosting.php" rel="nofollow">special promotion</a>.

Actually my question was not how to register a domain but whether or not using Fatcow’s hosting plan can enable us to list our already registered domain’s sites with NetFirms each with it is own SSL, DNS and IP and email address and perhaps a cpanel control. For example http://www.domain1.com http://www.domain2.com http://www.domain3.com We want to listed all our domains (about 12 to 15) in one account rather than 1 main domain http://www.domain1.com and the rest as sub-domains i.e. http://www.domain1.com/domain2 and etc… Again all our domains are listed with Netfirms and they are Not sub-domain. Now each site will be built on an OS-commerce platform type aka LITE COMMERCE seen here http://www.litecommerce.com The server requirements for litecommerce are here http://www.litecommerce.com/lc_manual/compiled/LiteCommerce-manual.pdf Please go to page 13 of the pdf or page 8 of the document. I have been told that the FATCOW can support litecommerce so we can develop our sites which is a good news, but I still wonder whether or not under one account we can list all our domains each by itself. For example Yahoo hosting requires each domain to have a separate account of its own, in order to have individual SSL, DNS, and email address. Gator hosting does provide such a plan sold under their Reseller Hosting. Seen here http://www.hostgator.com/resellers.shtml I really want to sign up with FatCow, if only they provide something like the Gator’s so that I can list one account for everything,…Thank you for your advise Can some body help me out with my question (below) regading FATCOW’s services.

On other sites, there were comments on how slow their servers are and how it takes a looong time to upload pictures, etc. I am wondering if this has happened to you? Do you still stand by your review and recommend them? Also, why do you recommend that you register your domain separately? Thanks for all your help!
