Off Topic!
KJ - over 1,000 sites lace our servers, putting us in the top 10 percentile of hosts. :) The reason we aren't accepting accounts right now isn't due to servers, but bandwidth. We have a policy of always having 10x the bandwidth we should need, to make it all "burstable", i.e. no bandwidth squeeze (your site slows to a crawl) during times of high traffic. This makes us very fast and stable. So we're looking at an OC-3 or even a OC-12 fibre solution. Or, we may end up just adding more DS-3's (T-3's). Also, when we reopen to new customers, we'll take credit card payments and have the referral program set up. We used to only accept checks, and it put some people out (to have to send it in before getting service, etc.)
If you have to act soon and are interesed in us, you could sign up through me. I don't even think our online registration is even up there right now, but if you are interested, let me know and we'll get you going. The prices on the site, whalehost.com are still accurate. Either way, good luck with your site! |
