<div style="font-size:11pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">My experience with Dreamhost has been that the web servers are reasonably responsive, but the MySQL databases are heavily bogged down. The last time I really hosted content there, I found that Typepad
was a better option than most dynamic CMSs because it didn't use the database heavily to serve traffic. It would render the content into flat files as content was changed/at publish time.<br>

<div>Yeah. Our problems were all in the data center. Cloud flare and the like don't really help with dynamic content much. That and being on badly overloaded servers. </div>

<div>I get content distribution. I pioneered some Of the technology in the 90's. :)</div>

<div>FWIW, content distribution networks are what allow Google and the big retailers to have such speedy response on their pages. CloudFlare is simply making similar features avaialble to smaller operators.

<div>Have been quite happy with <a href="http://Dreamhost.com/">Dreamhost.com</a> for seven years.
<div>We host <a href="http://www.redmountainmakers.org/">http://www.redmountainmakers.org</a> (Birmingham, AL) there. </div>
<div>I love their content distribution service - contributes nicely to the speed of page delivery on our wordpress site and our wiki.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It helps to be a bit technical as most of their tech support is via wiki, with additional support available via chat.</div>
<div>I've actually talked to a human about once every six months or so.</div>

<div><span>Lost our website. I wanted to transfer my website on their webbuilder site on my godaddy account to another godaddy account on Monday night and they said it should not be a problem and the website will be down for 24 hours and they would email me
back when done. No email and our website is still down. We are in the USA. Hayhackers is our hackerspace. I have been on the phone for an hour with them now and they are passing me around representives after representatives and putting me on hold multiple
times. No straight answer and they are telling me they have sent some notification saying they have elevated it and will have to wait 72 hours to find the data blah blah. 8 months of work and then they lost everything....About ready to cancel my account with
them but want to give them one more chance to find the website in 72 hours. Can't give me a direct number to contact someone regarding this in the future. I am asking for a discount right now because of the 72 hour wait they are putting me through. </span></div>
