IONOS doesn't seem to have a good reputation with people on reddit but it does get high ratings on review sites like HostAdvice and Trustpilot.

It takes forever to setup any new product (e.g. hosting, wordpress, etc) and their CS is atrocious. Take your money elsewhere.

IONOS is an awful company, with a terrible UI and bad support. Personally, I do my EU Domain Management directly via OVH, it works well for my

Our Magento shop is hosted on Nexcess for couple of years. Everything was working well until today morning, when website became unresponsive (

We have resolved the issue causing elevated error rates in the Create API. Systems are now recovering, and we are monitoring closely.

You can transfer your domain to any domain registrar. It will not be free however. You will have to pay the cost of one year of registration.

I moved my site from Netlify to Cloudflare Pages. Netlify support confirmed they removed the domain from their system. DNS is fully propagated

Thanks for the link. I just moved the website to Netlify from Fastmail. Hopefully the DNS on your side will update soon.

Wow - really surprised at this move by Netlify. It looks like that's a new policy[1] where a "Member" is not just someone who can log in to the Netlify UI

It's possible just due to your DNS being cached. In windows open command prompt and do "ipconfig /flushdns" without quotes. You may also need to

The main friction is practical. You'll still need to move sites, databases, emails, and possibly deal with DNS changes and downtime risk. If you

Recent reviews for ChemiCloud are mixed, with some users reporting downtime and issues with auto-renewal, despite their historically good reputation for speed

ChemiCloud is a great host for low-traffic WordPress sites, but if you expect frequent traffic spikes, their managed WordPress hosting may suit you better.

The host had frequent periods of down time. One of these lasted over 24 hours. Tech support was responsive but not particularly useful.

It really depends of your products, if they were just side projects with no real impact, then no you don't need to worry about it. On the other

Vercel builds Next for itself, so making it work elsewhere is never optimal. actually lets you move from one provider to another. SSR and

Any idea how to get in contact with customer support? They're going to have to give me my money back for this crap.

Yes, you can easily host a React+Vite+TypeScript project on Vercel's free plan. It handles static sites really well, and you can also add simple

Vercel's definitely in a weird place, trying to be the home for innovation while also offering more traditional support. While the support

What is Social Noise?

Social Noise is our real-time feed of what people are publicly saying about web hosting companies across X (Twitter), Reddit, Instagram, TikTok, and other social platforms. We surface genuine user opinions, the good, the bad, and the ugly, so you can see unfiltered feedback before choosing a host.

How do you collect these mentions?

We use automated search tools to monitor social media platforms for posts mentioning hosting companies in our directory. Each mention is classified by sentiment (good, bad, or mixed) and linked back to the original post and the host's profile on Hostlist.

How is sentiment determined?

Each mention is read for its overall meaning, not just for negative or positive keywords, and classified as Good (a positive experience or recommendation, even one that mentions a past problem but concludes satisfied), Bad (a genuine complaint or negative experience), or Mixed/Ugly (a nuanced take with real pros and cons). Posts from a host's own account, and promotional or affiliate copy, are excluded entirely rather than scored.

How often is Social Noise updated?

Social Noise is refreshed daily. We scan for new mentions across all monitored platforms every 24 hours and add them to the feed. The page itself revalidates every 2 minutes to show the latest data.

Can I filter by platform or sentiment?

Yes. Use the filter pills at the top to narrow by platform (X, Instagram, TikTok, Other) or sentiment (Good, Bad, Mixed). Filters can be combined to see, for example, only negative mentions on X.
