WildHosting Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 As for a bad hosting i went with a couple of months back, I have finally transferred! So now I have a hosting that allows crons, anyhow a useful source is https://www.setcronjob.com/ I have a Silver account which allows 3600 executions each day & not longer in need of it. It has just under 300 days left of the subscription and maybe someone could use these. Let me know & I will allow anyone to use them if you are in need! FOR FREE OF COURSE! PM me or add my skype.

Script47 Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 61,944 satisfied users 293,636 active cronjobs 2.9M executions per day Holy moly those are some crazy statistics. Quote
WildHosting Posted June 26, 2014 Author Posted June 26, 2014 Yes, but a lot of the huge hosting companys don't even have crons installed! That explains it all! Quote
DidNotCompute Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Yes, but a lot of the huge hosting companys don't even have crons installed! That explains it all! Really? Which major hosting company does not allow crons? Quote
WildHosting Posted June 26, 2014 Author Posted June 26, 2014 http://www.easyspace.com is one I remember for certain that don't allow crons. There are others too. Quote

WildHosting Posted June 30, 2014 Author Posted June 30, 2014 I use free cron job service easycron.com which manages multiple sites and provides feedback and reporting. I bet your maximum daily executions is 100 though. I do see a free trial up on there also, not bad. Quote
Barrikor Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 (edited) well anyone use hostgator ? I've got a VPS with HostGator, only my less-important sites, and only because I haven't got around to moving all my sites to my other VPS at another company. They were a good hosting company at first, but last year there's been serious downtime. They swapped my IPs without any warning (on the 4th of July almost full year ago) which knocked my sites offline as a side-effect. They moved my site from a fast datacenter(SoftLayer) to a slow datacenter (the one in Provo :mad:) without warning. All their servers went offline all day on August 2nd. Then on New Years Eve their servers decided to take the day off, so instead of going off to a New Years Eve party I had to spend the evening moving the most important sites (from Backups) to my other host so that any business email would still go through. Making problems worse, whenever they have big problems they "lose" their phone connection at the same time. Did I mention that by having a VPS, they said I'm getting much better service then the people on the shared hosting.... :eek: Edited July 1, 2014 by Barrikor Quote
