I don't get the hate. I use gmail and roundcube (on a cPanel host) on a daily basis. cPanel hosting is really easy to use and maintain. With a good hosting company, what's the issue?

This sounds very similar to what I do for web hosting reviews. For instance, take a look at Digital Ocean's reviews: http://reviewsignal.com/webhosting/company/101/digitalocean/ It calculates an ove

Exactly the root cause? Probably varies from individual to individual. A/B testing things and seeing what changes is a way to influence bounce rate. Finding an exact cause is probably an impossible task short of simply asking people wh

All these comments seem like they want to blame someone for Aaron's outcome. How much of the blame do people put on Aaron/MIT/JSTOR/govt/other?

I mentioned it was the default install but maybe that wasn't clear enough. I changed them all to 2014 theme too to give some parity. Real sites get heavier and heavier. When I load tests later they were on more realistic sites with som

You can up the performance pretty significantly with caching at various levels. My experience was the plugins don't do as much as something like putting nginx in front. http://reviewsignal.com/blog/2013/08&#x2

I measure what people are actually saying about them. People seem pretty happy. You can pontificate all you want, but I am looking at thousands of people's opinions on them, the consensus is that it's pretty good. If your complain

Suddenly buying up any potential competitor at any price doesn't seem too crazy. Give them no options, then they have to pay!

I have honest to god links, which actually still send traffic (amazing, right?). I also get some from social sources. I apparently get a bunch of direct traffic too... no idea where/why they are coming, but some days it's pretty g

Glad you like it. It really is hard. You can read a lot of reviews and people will say contradictory stuff. One of the biggest takeaways from looking at all the data I've collected is that no company is even close to perfect. These ser

Yeah, I've been working on it for 3 years, in the past year it's been able to support me. It's not a lot of money, but it's enough that I can subsist on it. It also doesn't eat my time 100% anymore, I can do some co

Thank you! The competition is incredibly black hat. Try running the sites listed for 'web hosting reviews' under some SEO tools and it's often very clear which black hat strategies they are using (blog spamming, edu/gov

It really depends on the traffic source/quality honestly. For some it can be exceptionally helpful (ie you have no idea what you need). For the HN crowd I linked directly to the data because I figured people would be far more comfortab

That's pretty neat frontpage. I am a bit confused as to what it's doing, who's doing it and why. But it seems like a neat idea.

Timing with them also can matter. Their sales people have quotas and goals for the month. You may get a better price towards the end of the month vs the beginning.

Since no actual configs were posted. I wrote up how I setup my server (which serves a wordpress site along with a custom site) to reverse proxy and cache. There's nginx reverse proxying to my apache server. full config and details are
