Dreamhost -Customer Feedback

• more like criticism and poor reviews.
• moral of the story: don't use Dreamhost, Not recommended. There are so many better web hosting services out there.


Whatever it is..i dont care..but when it affects my pocket..it does..Dreamhost downtime cost my google ranking..its fucked..my daily pageviews of 10k reduced to 1k…My daily earning reduced to 1/10th…

Now who will pay this…my year hardwork of SEO went in vain..Thanks Dreamhost….




Don’t scare me Dreamhost, I’m getting these errors when I access my picture site

Warning: mkdir() [function.mkdir]: No such file or directory in /usr/local/ndn/web/oneclicks/zenphoto/zp-core/zp-config.php on line 89



Who knows how much longer the downtime will be? I still couldn’t access my site 7 hours after Dreamhost claimed to have resolved the issue.


tired of dreamhost bullshit.. all the time they just say.. “oh, someone had a bad script that was overloading the server, or DOS attack” bla bla ..



Getting tired from Dreamhosts hiden limitations and overselling.

Constant website breakdowns. Google stopped indexing my pages and lost 500 visitors per day because dreamhost server is not responding almost 14 hours per day.



Yaaawwnn, I’m getting bored by all those downtimes.



My website is down yet again. This is the fifth time in 20 days.


Arghhhh!! Again?

DOWN DOWN DOWN AGAIN!



Site down, its been over 5 min…
Both Site, and MySql is down


THIS IS FRIKIN RIDICULOUS

ALL my sites are dOwn! Again again and again.

while($me->usingDH) { $me->freakOut(); }


hurry up!!!!!!!!!
the 4th down time in 3 three days.



what happen ??? down again?!?!

How many times in the last 30 days. Not ok. Not ok for my clients. Time for me to move on.


I have had enough




Monday morning and first day of month.
Absolutely disaster for my business all down again


DH every day worse and worse! Bad job! ” looking for replacement


always NETWORK or LAX Maintenance?
always down..


A better name for DreamHost -> Nightmare Hosting failure.

This is not acceptable, anyway. nth time in the last 30 days. you people disappointed everyone. Not again!


Dreamhost need to be ashamed of themselves


down again. down again. down again. down again. down again. down again. down again

This is not acceptable.This is not acceptable.This is not acceptable.This is not acceptable.This is not acceptable


bad service
bad service
bad service
bad service


No one should use DH anymore. Worst hosting ever


Dreamhost is losing money and will go bankrupt soon so they are piling all their customers onto the same machine and selling off the extra servers. This is why the serving and uptime (excessive downtimes) has gotten so terrible lately.


Note to everyone doing business outside of the US, do not use Dreamhost, server down is one thing, losting customer during business hour just for the convinence of the US is a big thing for doing buisness. SO SWITCH NOW!!


Can someone from DH please post an explanation? Guys, you have to be above the board. Posting a real-time notice about an outage and calling it ‘maintenance’ doesn’t win you loyal customers.



It is an amazing display of incompetence. I mean WOW! Anybody that defends this level of terrible service should be ashamed of themselves.



unable to access my website… Why???


Site back up but frikkin’ slow.. Is it the same for you?
“89 quaries rendered in 21 seconds” omg :/


Can someone at nightmarehost please update us? My site is down and yes I left a support ticket. Of course what good does that do?
