Problems hosting a CC4 site

Recommended Posts

I have a site on Lunarpages running cubecart4 and about 1,000 products. I get about 2k hits a day from around 300 unique visitors. Lunarpages just suspended my site for useing too many resources on a shared server. I know this is BS, you know this is BS. They are trying extort money from me is all it is.

My question is.... who has the best hosting that won't pull this junk? It's a lingerie store so it has to be adult freindly. I have another website on inMotion and WISH they would take this one too. I love those guys!

TIA

PS, just so I'm clear Lunarpages is horrible and no one should ever use them.

Let me ask this another way then. As far as anyone knows, why would my host suspend my site for using too many resources and I'm only seeing about 2k pages views a day. Is there a trick to knock down the server resource and memory usage? Yes, the site is running in cache mode.

The home page only has one 'non skin' mod on it and that is it shows 8 random items from the 'sale items' instead of latest products. I made a tweek in the DB that includes a 'salecat' field and a tick box in 'edit products' that lets me toggle this on and off. Could taht be it? It's been up for almost 2 years like that. Why now?

Any help would be much appreciated. My host is playing hardball with me.

Hi,

I would get your site backed up and moved to a more reliable host, I have been with the hosting company above this forum page for many years with no problems and excellent customer services.

Sounds like Lunarpages are taking the pis*

Look for the croc and pick (reseller package)

Lunarpages has done that to me before as well. I gave up with all the crap and just brought a dedicated server. The cost is $1200 per year but I make that up pretty easily and I have the freedom of doing what ever I want including porn... :)
