This is just a warning to anyone that thinks they can get away with only having one set of nameservers on one server and no backup servers to put people on...
I have learnt the hard way that this DONT work you may be lucky enough to get away with it for 12 months or ever 2 years you may never get caught but..
there is always the chance you will And i can speak for experence that having no backup servers/reseller accounts for clients is a real danger
My hosting service is currently 50% down I can not accept new orders atleast for a week I was lucky enough to have a friend with a vps where i could throw everyone however this dont come with nameservers so I have also had to give 3 dns / email clients away to another host
I also have no dns for my main domain and no dns for the other 20 I was hosting.. Please consider getting atleast a backup reseller just for the nameservers becuse I can tell you a host without any dns is hopless..
I just dont wanna see anyone else make this saame mistake. :beer:
this is not a mistake i will make again anytime soon and I guess in the long run thats what really matters...
I offerd a few free domains for stuffing ppl around etc it seemd to go down well so I havnt really lost anyone due to anger :D
Happy hosting!
