Maybe because they had dozens of failures and DDOS outages? Why they have to keep their prices so low - because of reputation. Price is the only attractive thing in services like this.
- at-fates-hands 7y agoI came here to say this. Why people continue to think you can get everything on the cheap with services like this and not understand you're putting your business at risk by trying to cut corners on hosting and other services is beyond me. I pay around $20-$25/month for Azure hosting for several e-commerce and mobile app clients I have. I told them up front you don't want to cut corners on this stuff, it will come back to haunt you later. Sure, you'll save a few bucks year over year, but what happens in an outage? What happens when your clients can't order their stuff and you lose revenue for several days straight? Now the idea of saving a few hundred dollars a year evaporates as thousands of dollars are lost when your service provider takes a dump on you. Suddenly, it's not such a good deal anymore is it?
