Tell HN: Experiences with yahoo web hosting.
I as thrilled to see that yahoo offered unlimited web hosting to Indian small businesses for just s. 3k that is around $60 per year.
I immediately bought it hoping it will be nice. Unfortunatly my university has a proxy server and I cant use FTP. Yahoo gives the same old geocities web admin panel that sucks like anything. That does not even go near Cpanel.
Secondly it supports only PHP4 and they do not plan to upgrade it at all.
The biggest surprise was that I wanted to buy 4 parked domains. Their customer service has no clue about what is a parked domain she only knew about subdomains. She was rude not to reply to my mails demanding a better tech. person on line.
I had to buy the parked domains from some other service provider :(
No wonder yahoo cant hold candle to Google.
- zmonteca 17y agoIt's terrible. It gets hacked often and it's pretty slow. The outdated support of php is pretty horrendous too. Who's building anything that supports legacy php 4 these days?
