hosting

Can anyone recommend an alternative to Afrihost for hosting a basic linux server with something like cPanel? The team over at Afrihost keeps blocking my emails from even sending if it includes the word "payment" in the email. Kinda getting fed up with it now calling them every other month...

Hey guys, Looking for opinions here, I have always used dedicated servers for Web Applications ( Not Websites ) I have been looking at Azure over the break as they now have a presence in South Africa, but I'll be honest I am not getting on with them when trying to host a PHP/Laravel Web App...

Morning, I have written a .Net Core 2.2 Web API application for a client, but cannot seem to find a hosting company that supports .Net Core? Any suggestions as to which companies actually supports this? Thanks

Unfortunately due to South African regulations clients have little recourse when I company takes their money. All that I can do now is post on forums and hopefully help other people avoid unethical companies. A few months back I applied online at 1-grid for their R49.00 a month small hosting...

Help!!! Has anyone else had experience transferring a dotcom domain AWAY from 1-grid / gridhost / serve / whatever they are calling themselves this year? We have been trying since July to get them to release our domain, which we recently found out is actually registered with enom (they don't...

Hi Guys, I posted a little while ago about finding a provider that can provide hosting with large storage. Worked out quite expensive in South Africa (as one might expect). However, since then I have managed to get my hands on a HP 2u Rack mount server and I am wanting to get this installed in...

Hey guys, So I bought a server via Hetzner's server auction a couple months ago. While it's fantastic, I'm getting a little frustrated with international speeds (not Hetzner's fault - my ISP). I was wondering if anyone knows of a hosting company that has a local DC that offers servers (either...

A thing I've recently noticed is happing more and more is companies spamming contact forms to pitch their services. Now if you are not intelligent enough or too lazy to do the work required to set up a functional cold email campaign then you shouldn't be working in this space. This morning a...

Hi, has anyone successfully deployed an Angular 7 app on Hetzner's shared web hosting? I'm planning to run a complete Angular 7 - PHP 7.2 - Mysql stack on said hosting. I know that this works on my German Hetzner account, but my client's client base is in South Africa and latency is supposed to...

We have a re-seller account at 1-Grid. A client stopped using their email and it filled up on the server with tons of email pushing our disk allocation past its limit (They don't allow limits on mailboxes); 1-Grid sent us a bill of R56 000 for one month's usage out of the blue with no warning...

I recently signed up with Absolute Hosting and decided I will post a review of them. TL;DR: Absolutely amazing features at great prices with the best customer service I have ever received from any hosting provider. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a hosting provider with great...

Hi all. I'm currently buying hosting client bases but phoning small businesses with client bases of 5 isn't exactly proving to be worth my time and effort. Is there any recommended site that I perhaps have overlooked that lists South African hosting client bases for sale? If there are, please...

Can anyone provide estimates of what it costs to set up and maintain a 'forum site'? A forum similar to Mybroadband serving a specific community (this is not competition to mybroadband!). Can one buy a standard template? What would hosting cost? What other significant costs to consider?

Extremely disappointed in Afrihost, all that was wrong our SSL certificate expired, 3 days later, business lost. All we get is automatic responders, they brag about new whatsapp service, still waiting for answers since 11am this morning. Our e-commerce website in existence since 2012, just...

Hey guys, I'm looking for a hosting company that is affordable with quick support & won't ignore my tickets or hold my site hostage. I currently have a website that I got many many years ago, but the guy who registered it on my behalf won't take my calls & I can't get rid of his restrictions...

The server my VPS is on is being decommissioned mid March. I need around 70GB To be honest I am not the most technically clued up with these things, so would prefer someone who has some level of support available. I am usually able to remove malicious scripts and so on. Preferable...

Any recommendations from personal experience on which host to select? Or are they much the same? My needs are basic: a 4-3 page website and about 5 email addresses. Any thoughts welcome.

If anyone has experience with Cloud Hosting at Axxess, could you please answer some of the questions I have below? Since Axxess does not bother to answer my questions ( rcp.axxess.co.za/ticketview.php?TicketId=kg37m87edg ) I hope that members of this community can answer them. BAD FORM...

Hi MyBroadband users, I am interested in what you want from, or if you are interested in, colocation hosting. General questions include price range per U, included bandwidth, and electricity costs. If there is anything else you would like to add, feel free to do so.

When emailing hosting@cybersmart.co.za and accounts@cybersmart.co.za I get an automated reply that says the mail was not received and that it is an error on their side. I also cannot register a new domain as it runs into "500 Internal Error"
