Migrated to a new web host

Submitted by aravind on Sat, 02/14/2009 - 15:53

I recently changed my web host from 1&1 to lunarpages. I took advantage of a recent offer which was $4.95/month for 24 months but I was actually able to get $2.87/month. The hosting package included a lot of good features including unlimited disk space, one free domain name, PHP support, Perl support, Python Support and loads of other feature. More information is available below

Lunarpages.com Web Hosting

I actually moved to lunarpages in January and to my surprise the migration was smooth, flawless and easy. Lunarpages use CPanel which provides a lot of features for web masters and administrators. Features like scheduling cron job, server status information and services information are really handy. But one of the features that could be improved is the web http/ftp statistics analyzer. Right now I can use Analog and Weblizer but would have be really happy if I had a chance to use AWStats.

One of the things I really like about this new host is that, my pages are served really really fast. It is kinda difficult to actually see the difference but it is evident from the googlebot reports. Take a look at the screen shot below.

Since January the googlebot takes an average time of about 700 milliseconds to download a page on my website while before January it took about 2500 milliseconds. That's an increase of at least 70% increase in performance. Hope to see this continue in the future and I really hope that it is not due to the fact that I have a smaller google search index right now.
