I have problem with my present hosting company. Support is long delayed and obviously not 24/7 even with a priority contract

Thanks all for your input, I have been away dealing with my present hosting which drops my sites nearly every other day

Hi ... Please see my post on this topic and feel free to leave me a comment, of course :

https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/esinger/blog/bluehost-vs-godaddy-comparison-results

I love Bluehost.

Emme

Thanks Emma, nice post and helpful responses, Appreciate it

Most of us are host by WA, it include in the premium, so far no problem, because Kyle and Carson do it very well. also bough domain from godaddy and they are good service.

I have used Hostgator for sometime - just about to drop them after they deleted my main site and didn't have a back-up. They also then blamed me and their support is slower and slower. Am in the process of moving to namecheap First contact with them was very quick and efficient but have no idea whether that will remain so. :) Beverley

I love namecheap, they are of the same mindset as me, and I love their service.
Good luck there Beverly!

I'm with Namecheap on a few sites and can't fault them at all. They are extremely good value for money and deal with issues on LiveChat immediately (which I love - instantly dealt with).

Have tried GoDaddy before, but have heard a few negative things about them, and they are a bit pricier.

I have sites on Hostgator and here. Never had a problem with either one. Went to Hostgator years ago after getting hacked while on a cheaper hosting company. I called them, they already knew about it. Other sites on that server were affected too but they did not seem to be able to do anything about it. Took the whole site down,moved my domain and rebuilt at Hostgator. There are a lot of cheap hosting companies out there but I don't recommend most of them for lack of security. WA goes way above most companies to keep the servers secure. I have heard good things about BlueHost as well.

Thanks Teacup, nice post, From what I have read - I will be looking at BlueHost

I use WA for all my hosting considering it is considered in your premium membership. I have had very few issues and from what I have heard their support system is quite fast in getting around to issues. The only other hosting I had was Godaddy a few years ago and I personally am not a fan so I won't ever go back to them in the future. Not that their support was bad but I needed it more often than I would like lol.

Thanks, I have to check to see how many hosted sites WA take per member - I suspect 1 for training only

premium members get unlimited hosting, you can host as many sites as you like here

I use Bluehost. I had a 3 year contract with them when I finally found WA. I love them. I recommend them. I love the human2human contact.
I also hear that the hosting here is very good. I have never seen a problem go unsolved. They have built a very robust site that has almost no downtime!
Hope that helped!

Godaddy have been excellent, there is a wait on the phone, but they always come on, and the calls don't cost me, so I rate their service highly

I use them for registries, but miss using Cpanel which they don't or didn't offer

One of my blogs was trashed with 200 nonsensical, non-English draft posts from an unknown author

Ensure you have spam guard up when you go to final!

Wow glad you got it worked out

I would change my password

Are they "posts" or "comments" ? If you have posts showing up in your dashboard that you didn't write, your site has likely been compromised. I would change your admin password, and consider installing a security plugin like wordfence or better wp security.

If it's just spam comments, definitely get akismet installed.

Just a tip for EVERYONE out there.... Always change your admin username to something other than "admin." This simple change will significantly improve the security of your site.

Thanks for the response, all were draft posts from 2 different subscribers, same day and time. Over 200 posts. Caught me by surprise. Was deleting 1x1, till i figured out could delete the subscriber and all posts

One more thing... If you happen to be using "admin" as your username and you are still having issues and want to change it, here are a couple of plugins and tutorials to help you accomplish this.

Plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/username-changer/

Tutorial: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-change-your-wordpress-username/

That's so crazy it just might work! Thanks for the tip. (Rushes to her admin page....)

Could you clarify your problem?

Thanks, believe i have answered above, enjoy your day

It is called SPAM. Do you have Akismet installed?

Thank for the response; these were draft post, not comments

This is one I haven't dwelled on or figured out; however, I understand that it is now more popular that Facebook. So who is Marketing on Twitter? How and Why?

HubSpot is one of my favorite resources, this informational link seems appropriate for my question and helpful to others http://offers.hubspot.com/grow-your-twitter-followers-fast (spaces added) ?source=hspd-emarketing-grow-your-twitter-followers-fast-20140402.

I don't mean to sidetract, thought this may be helpful to understand Email and Social Marketing, of which Twitter is one of the key social media > http://www.pinterest.com/pin/327285097893201947/

Nice share, thanks Fred

I still have to practice more on Twitter too. I'm not used to writing short sentences.

Acording to Edison Reserch ,4o% percent of the total time people spent on the Twitter ,is learning about certain products and services,or redding-getting feedback from what others have to say about them as well.Personal opinions from other users they have main role.
This is one of the the 5 main social media platform and as the other platforms,you need to define your goals and objectives,than do a lot of reserching,join the conversation to start developing and forging relationship ,so you will strenghteen your relationship with your followers..
The main thing is to build relationships not to sell,and if you put a lot of time in your twitter campaign,you will have not fast results,but you will have a great long term results.
Combination of twitter and FB,will be great,and also you can use Google+,LinkedIn and YouTube,for better results,for your network Campaigns.
I wish you a lot of fun,and success with Twitter.Cheers.

Nice post, thanks for sharing

Twitter can be good if you are talking to people that use it. Hastags are key. I've gotten some retweets by using them.

Thanks for the reply, now for looking up hashtags smiles!

#thisisahashtag

It's not more popular yet (Facebook has 1.3 billion members, Twitter few hundred millions only) but it's highly beneficial if you use Twitter. It's easier to get new followers in Twitter and promote your blog posts to them.

What you should do?

Make a Twitter account and start to build your followers base. Follow other people and then engage with them. Many are willing to follow you back.

If you tweet, make sure that you promote your blog only about 20% of all your tweets, or people consider you as spammer. So 80% of your tweets should be something else (motivational quotes, about you, some good article that you read, etc.)

If your tweets/retweets are good, people begin to trust you and if you promote your blog posts they visit your site too. This way you drive traffic to your website from Twitter.

Thank for your reply, great
