Web Hosting Mergers and Acquisitions - March 2008

Tue, 29 Apr 2008 11:40:00 -0400

I was going through my files --- then again and again ---- March was a slow month…but April will be better – at least my firm did three.

Lynchburg VA – Sitestar (OTC: SYTE) bought the assets of Comcation, an Internet service provider whose services also include web hosting. As a side note Sitestar’s CEO, Frank Erhartic has agreed to be on an M&A panel this blogger is moderating at ISPCON.

Australia - MYOB acquired Ilisys Pty Ltd one of Australia's larger web hosting providers. MYOB provides accounting software and payroll software to more than 700,000 businesses worldwide.

Glendale, CA - Pro Net Hosting acquired Homepage Universe which doubled the firm’s size to over 100,000 shared and dedicated hosting domains.

Denver, Colorado - ViaWest, acquired Dallas based Dataside. With the Dataside acquisition, ViaWest's annualized revenue will exceed $100 million by the fourth quarter of 2008.

London - Freedom4 Communications PLC, signed an agreement to sell its Hosting and Network Services Division to Host Europe WVS Ltd for 120.0 mln stg. ($235m)

Minneapolis - VISI acquired Infinity AccessNET, a business-focused Internet Service Provider.

Obviously not all inclusive - but from the NCC files.

Some people called it a bad move cause people would talk about Ping Zine’’s stinginess for not having a winner. But the key here is that people will talk. And talk they did. There has already been a buzz for next year with several companies saying they will have cars or something other equally grand. This competition has made people talk and that is the type of publicity that cannot be bought. For a very small investment, Ping Zine has placed themselves deep into the lore of HostingCon and that is what made this great.

Today`s suggestion:

I've been with hostgator since around August of 2004. I signed up with a
reseller account to use as hosting for both myself and clients. My problems
began about a year ago with them, sometime in February or March of 2005 when one
of my sites was getting too much traffic. Now, I'm no fool. I understand that
shared hosting oversells and anyone who uses too many resources, even if still
within their quota, gets kicked off. What really shocked me, though, was no
warning. Not even emailing me after they had done it. Nothing, nada. I found out
by a member of the site that was suspended, someone I didn't even know, tracking
down my phone number and calling me.

I went to a dedicated server after that, but I kept my hostgator account for the
sites that were already hosted on it - about three client sites, as well as this
site right here.

Two days ago I come to post a blog and hmm, I get the suspended page. That's
weird. I check my email - no notices there. I log into their billing system -
nope, account not past due. What the heck? So I go to their online support chat
and ask them what's going on. I'm informed that I haven't paid my invoice. What
invoice? I have no invoice. I check my bank and I see that I in fact have not
paid them since January. But man, I could've swore I put it on automatic pay.
And hey, if there's no invoice, how can I pay anyway?! Isn't this a problem on
their end? They tell me I need to email sales.

Okay... so I email sales. 12 hours later, they email me back and inform me I
have an invoice, charging me all the way back to October. Uhhh? I KNOW I paid in
January, I have it in my bank statement. I check their billing system, and they
don't even have a backlog of that payment. Something really funky is going on
now. Their system is screwed up, but no matter who I talk to (and oh, I've
talked to everyone) nobody seems to know what's going on. Sales doesn't talk to
support, online support doesn't talk to phone support, so who the hell knows.

Strangely enough, while on the phone with a support guy who informed me I just
need to pay the invoice and then dispute it afterwards, I received an email from
a different support person that my account had been reactivated, and thank you
for the payment. Whaaat? Uh, whatever. At this point I'm just going to take what
I can get and run. Now I at least have backups of all my sites and am moving
them.

It's just astounding how bad a service this has been. I even posted on their
forums about it, in their "Customer Review" section, and it gets MOVED to
another section because I can't post a bad customer review simply because I
haven't paid. HELLO. I WANT TO PAY, JUST NOT MORE THAN I OWE. I NEED AN INVOICE.

Other problems I've had? Well, let's see. About a week ago my sites reverted
back a day and I could get no explanation on why. I had JUST looked at my access
logs the day before, happy about a new site that was already getting hits, and
the next day - logs are back to a day before. Weird. I contact online support
(bad idea, since it's always horrible support) and they have no idea. I guess I
imagined things?

UPDATE 4-20-07: Well, they finally just simply decided to take their bogus bonus
from my credit card that was filed with them, despite the fact that it's
incorrect, I didn't approve of the payment, or anything else. I've never seen
such bad service, support in my life. I can't even be bothered to dispute it
it's just so amazingly horrible.

UPDATE 10-18-07: I'm still with them, why? I don't know - so lazy when it comes
to my own websites. Anyway, so a couple days ago I notice my "main" reseller
account, the site is completely missing. Email is no longer working. I log into
Cpanel to see that it appears my whole site has disappeared. Cute!
