My Excellent Host

I use LayeredTech as my unmanaged hosting provider. My hobby site The Humor Archives is hosted there on a Linux box. Recently I had problems, possibly of my own causing, I’m not sure yet, that required a hard reboot (i.e. have you tried turning it off and on again). So I submitted a ticket thinking it would be a few days before it was actioned… 17 minutes later a message from their tech gals:

Hello,

In progress

Thanks

Layeredtech Technologies - Support 1

Now that is service! Also bear in mind that it is 2 in the morning where they are. I’m very please with them, and have already recommended them to people… I wonder if they have a referral scheme.

    Are you aware of LayeredTech’s status as the #1 paid hosting provider for HTTP spammers in the US? I get an INSANE amount of http-spam from LayeredTech’s network. And they are not responsive to abuse complaints, either.

    But hey, don’t take my word for it, check out the folks other than yourself who are hosted there:

    Kinda says it all. =(
