I have been hosting my site at WebHost4Life for a number of years now and they were fine. I had no trouble with them at all and the service was great... until they were bought out.
During the transistion stage my site was to be migrated over to the new servers and for quite some time (a couple of months at least) the status of the migration for my site was 'QA' which meant that my site had not yet passed their 'quality' check for the new servers. In May of 2010 my site was eventually migrated to the new servers. Actually, the status was updated as such and the nameservers were also updated but my site was nowhere to be seen! After logging into the control panel and seeing what was going on I found that none of the web site had been moved across. In addition to this my e-mail started flooding with all the e-mail that I had ever received since starting with WebHost4Life - fantastic!! After a few days my site was restored back onto the old servers for a short while.
Soon after, it happened again but it was an improvement. At least the web site was there and one of my web services was running but the blog and other web services were still not up and running. And, again, e-mails started to flood in! After several days of inactivity and no responses to my questions I moved to another web hosting company.
Arvixe is a web hosting company that, from the surface, claims to provide great web hosting services at low prices. Too good to be true! It has to be! I needed to find out who was hosting with them and if they had anything to say about Arvixe and sure enough there were plenty of sites and plenty of comments. All the comments I found were positive in nature. Some of the sites I found I've used before and after using them again after they had migrated to Arvixe I was convinced that Arvixe is indeed providing the service they claim on their web site.
I made the switch to Arvixe. I've contacted their sales and support teams and in every instance I've had prompt responses or online chats that have answered my queries 100%. I'm happy now and so are my clients that rely on the web services!
If you're in the market for a web hosting company I would recommend that you spend a few minutes to see what Arvixe can offer.
