Justhost.com-Anyone use it here?

Are you a part owner? Lol. I'll shoot you a pm but do they also have the unlimited package like hostgator? I couldn't read their site well because I'm on mobile and the resolution is fairly big. Thanks

I have it and have the unlimited domains package, very reliable.

Just host has been discussed in many other threads here in the Warrior forum. Just run a search on Justhost. As far as hosting goes, they are the worst of the worst. Their customer service is pitiful.

I had 19 wp websites hosted there. They were hacked, and the hacker changed the passwords to all my blogs so I could not access the admin panel to change anything. When I asked Just Host for help, they sent me links to WP.org on how to change a password thru c-panel, but it didn't work. When I went back to Just Host for help, they basically said "sorry, but we can't help you with the passwords."

I lost 3 months of hosting and 19 websites. Over a 3 week period, I repeatedly called and emailed asking for a supervisor to contact me for help in restoring the websites but no one ever did, I was just contacted by the same unhelpful cs support staff.

I have never had any websites hacked before, so I think it was something lacking in their security at Just Host. The customer support was absolutely horrible. A real nightmare. I canceled my account and explained why, I thought someone would contact me then, but no, they just canceled the account.

You never know how good, or how bad a company is until you have a problem. Any company can host your domains, but if something does not go right, that is when you separate the good companies from the bad. Just host is bad, bad, bad. Run, don't walk away from their hosting.

Even if they were giving away free hosting, I would not waste my time with them. They cost me a lot of time, frustration and $$$, and because they are located in the UK, suing them is out of the question.

I have 2 hosting accounts with Host Gator, and 1 hosting account with Blue Host. I have never had any major problems with either account, but I prefer Host Gator. Their customer support is excellent. They actually go the extra step to do whatever it takes to help or fix an issue to keep you happy.

I'm afraid I can only chime in with MMixon, JustHost is ludicrous, avoid at all costs.

All hosting companies seems OK if you put up 10 or 20 sites on them and eveything runs smoothly for a year or two.

But if anything other than smooth runnings should come up - approaching your usage limits, getting hacked, temporary down-time, etc. - that's where you find our whether you've got a real robust host or a bunch of money-grubbing, unsupportive incompetents.

If you host quite a few sites, long enough, those problems will come up - they all have for me over the years. I've been wth JustHost & Hostgator. How well did my host resolve my problems and provide me with excellent customer service? How easy was it to reach a level 2 manager when I needed to?

Hostgator:10+
Just Host: 0 or some negative number
Nuff said. Avoid Just Host like the plague

Here is what i got from them about different query

"Hello,

Sorry but only our support team is located in UK.
Our data center is located in USA. Therefore we can't provide you with hosting in UK.

Please let us know if you need more help.
Thank you.

I've been using justhost for more than a year without any problems. Customer support is quick and reliable, they were very helpful. BUT after reading MMIXON bad experience with them I will be more careful about backing up my database and using better passwords..:confused:

I have over 300 blogs spread over 7 hosting accounts, and have had hosting accounts for 10 years. I have never been hacked before, but was hacked at justhost. And not just 1 blog, but all 19 blogs. I had a password of about 20 digits. The sites were current and less than 3 months old, using the same plug-ins and setup of the other websites I have.

And it does not matter if it is a product or a service, you never know how good (or bad) a company is until you have a problem...something breaks, you have a warranty issue, you need to get a repair or replacement part, you have a technical issue and contact support, etc. All companies sell products and services and you expect them to perform as advertised. When they don't, a company will either help you resolve the issue, because they value you as a customer and want to keep you happy, or they will blow you off and move on to sell their stuff to the next new customer, and on and on...

Not unlike a ponzi scheme where a company must have new customers to sign up to pay for the old customers that have left.

My accounts were not only hacked, but when I contacted customer support, their "help" consisted of sending me articles found by running a google search, or how to resolve the issue. When following the articles to fix the issue did not work and I asked what to do next, their emailed response was "sorry, we can't help you. Repairing the blogs is your job not ours." In other words, we take no responsibility for your hacking. I asked for a supervisor to contact me several times with no response.

After a month of frustration, I finally gave up and contacted them to cancel my account, they never asked why I was leaving, why I was unhappy, how they could keep me as a customer, nothing. They simply sent me an email notifying me that my account would be deactivated at the end of the month.

It is easy to be happy with a product or service. Lots of people were happy when they bought a Ugo and drove it off the lot, until the wheels fell off. They were not so happy then.

The wheels will fall of your 30 sites at some point. No need to come back and say "Mickey, you and the hundreds of other warriors were right. Justhost is a nightmare." We already know that. You have been warned :-)
