Afrihost Bryanston Data Centre down again

- Start date
Last time it went down was 08 Aug 2017, so unless we are in august your statement is invalid.

Network Error At Bryanston Data Centre01:39, 08 Sep 2017
Resolved
We are currently experiencing a network error at our Bryanston Data Centre. We’re working with our upstream provider to resolve this as quickly as possible. Affected clients may have limited or no connectivity to their hosted services at this data centre. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
Hi guys, I'm busy with a guide on "How to move your hosting to a decent host away from Afrihost"
If anyone would like to help contribute to it, and raise awareness of this blight on our internet with their constant issues, mowing down thousands of sites in one foul swoop, PM me and I'll credit you in the article

Step 1: move to a host who will handle the migration on your behalf.
A lot of people don't even know that. So if you would like to suggest any hosts, I would love to contact them to query them regarding the migration process and what is required so to explain it properly to those who think it will be too complicated to do.
I would also like to go into separating email hosting from the domain / web site host and explain the pro's/con's on those options and the long-term affect that will have on your business etc.

All our Afrihost cloud servers are down again.
*edit*
Eh, I should probably create a new thread. I see this time it's their Gallo Manor data center that's down.

Hosting going down.... mmmm, I wonder if Afrihost realizes the cost to the companies in the amount of potential business they lose.
I know some companies spend upwards of 15k a month on SEO, all down the drain if your hosting is down and google deindexes you temporarily. it's hard to come back (and even costlier) to get there.
Imagine all those adwords money spent just going up into thin air...
