The Best of Best service

I started registering the service on the Sunday afternoon and reach out to George on the online chat for help with the setting up the account. He jumped right into it and got everything ready for me to work on my VPS within 5 mins. Amazing!

Great services. In fact, I have tried many other services, but I found your service to be much better than other services in terms of speed of server installation, wonderful customer service, and immediate support. Thank you from the bottom of my heart - I love you.

I had to submit documentation a total of three times. No where in the instructions did it say an electronic signature was not permitted, and I was told to blur out my debit card information on the actual card but had to provide the number on paper? That doesn't make any sense.

The Next Level
August 30, 2023

I have had the same web hosting provider since the 1990's and need to find a new one. The services that Hostwinds provides, cPanel in particular, are much more advanced than what I had been using, and even though it is a lot of work, I think it will be worth it. Most of the work has involved migrating from asp.net to php. The chat support is very helpful, but here are some things that they were not able to tell me (for shared business hosting):
• To use the index file in a subdirectory as the 404 error page, put this into the subdirectory's.htaccess file:
ErrorDocument 404 /subdirectory/index.php (the path descends down from public_html).
• To use a server side include, the syntax must be exactly like this (note no space between the initial hyphens and the hash mark; I was going nuts):

And to use ssi's in regular.htm files, put this into the.htaccess file:
AddHandler server-parsed.htm
• Email aliases are created using forwarders.

I operate a very low volume website on wordpress and with a near $20/m plan it wasn't even capable of using the wordpress control panel. Overloaded shared servers or terrible allocation. I've foolishly used them for nearly 4 years and am extremely glad to have switched. Cheaper and infinitely faster. Never use Hostwinds.
