No such thing as a free lunch. And, to point out, domains are incredibly cheap.

Question by BCPix: Is there any recourse against web hosting company arbitrary shutdown?
6 months ago I posted a question about my dealings with Host Excellence, the web hosting company where I host 2 sites. Briefly the issue I was having was that although I had purchased and paid for an “unlimited” plan, which they advertise as unlimited web space. It turns out that there is all kinds of double-talk in there disclaimer that basically states that you really only get “fair share” of storage space, which, in my case topped out at about 11GB before I started to interfere with their servers and thy took me offline. I was able to get my sites back online by getting my storage space down to under 10 GB and now only have about 5GB of content up. I also removed a CGI script from my homepage which they claimed was slowing down their servers (although they profess to fully support CGI). This morning, even though I have not changed anything on the site in the past 6 months, since being re-instated, I was shut down again, for the same reason. They will not re-instate me until I agree to comply with their requirements, which they have not yet made clear to me. Which brings me tho my question:
Are all web hosting companies this shady? Do I have any recourse against their false claims or have they covered themselves in their fine print. I would love to move my sites off their servers and will probably do so when my prepaid agreement expires, but I don’t know how to determine what company might be more honest in their approach to dealing with their clients and would hate to end up in the same boat all over again with a different company. Also, to any prospective web hosters out there I would, at this point, have to recommend that you avoid Host Excellence, or at least not take their claims at face value!

I can understand your frustration but you should contact hosting providers before you start filling up your website with content. I personally use Chime Host and they offer the same option for unlimited space and unlimited bandwidth but i haven’t had that problem with them yet. I am using around 7 GB of space and so far things are okay. But I do know the moment my site utilizing excessive resources such as cpu, memory, ram, I will be asked to either upgrade to vps or cancel hosting. I researched every host out there before settling for chime host and only reason i settled with them is because they don’t force you to pay for 1 years or 2 years in advance. I am on month to month basis and I can leave whenever i want.

Question by rawrcakkes rawrcakkes: Is there a search engine out there that filters domain names?
For example, only websites with the domain name of
.com, .net, .edu, .gov. and ect.
Best answer:
Answer by Adrienne D
Yes!
First, Google has a .gov search tool here:
http://www.google.com/unclesam
But for any domain extension, all you really have to do is use Google’s advanced search:
http://www.google.com/advanced_search
Type your keywords in the top box. Then in the bottom box (Search within a site or domain) put which domain extension you want to search within.
For example, if you type “internet marketing” in the top box and .edu in the bottom box, you get a list of .edu websites that discuss internet marketing.
Cheers!

Question by b1911: SEO – Search Engine Optimization – If a page got indexed, but you then remove the page, is there a way ….?
If a page got indexed, but you then remove the page, is there a way to remove it from the listing or do you have to wait until the Search Engine crawls the entire site again and realizes that page does not exist anymore?

Answer by imisidro
Google has a process that will allow you to remove pages of your website (or even your entire website) from their database. The first step is to put a “nofollow” instruction to the Googlebot in your metatag. Then you can use Google’s automatic URL removal system
http://services.google.com/urlconsole/controller
Here are Google’s instructions on how to remove a page http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35303
This is Yahoo’s instructions on how to remove a page from their database, which is similar to Google by making you put a noindex tag in your metatags first http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/ysearch/deletions/deletions-03.html
