I have 2 websites hosted here and all my email flows through the webhost.dynadot server. They've been down for way too many hours.

It has happened a few times of late but never for this long. What is gong on with Dynadot? At this point I need to be reassured that things are being handled or I may have to move my sites.

I have an uncomfortable feeling about Dynadot lately. Since I've hosted web sites for well over ten years, I've certainly seen my share of bad apples.

Please Dynadot, prove me wrong.

yes.. you are right webhost.dynadot is down...

This has happened so many times in the past year it is now serious and unacceptable.

Dynadot obviously has server and/or bandwidth problems which make it appear to be a third rate web hosting company.

All we get from Dynadot everytime is excuses.

There is no excuse - invest in more severs and in more bandwidth. Quality web hosting companies do not have this amount of downtime.

Crap. I was hoping that they would be up this morning, but no, still down.

I'm also having trouble accessing my website - can log in to the dashboard but cannot edit my site, nor are any of my site pages showing online like they should be.

Our web hosting appears to be under DDoS attack right now.

We are working on blocking the attack.

Well, thanks for the info at least.

But surely, a good web host provider should have been prepared for such a thing by installing "application front end hardware"?

For instance:

How long does something of this nature usually take?  I run a business through my site and I need to at least access my email.  I can contact my clients through an alternate email in order to let them know that things are down at the moment, but I need to be able to give them a general time frame.

guys please get the hosting back i already lost 300 USD on clicks on adwords becuase nobody can reach the websites.. its a desaster......

ya not good, beta go bak up soon

Looks like we have a software configuration issue. We have fixed the issue, and your sites should be responsive again.
