Does Anyone Use Hostopolis?

I've been searching for a new host. Hostopolis offers all I need at good prices. Does anybody use them or know their reputation?

Brad, is it straightforward to import WordPress databases?

I have some WordPress sites looking for a new home.

I'm not Brad, but for the most part, yes.

Though I will stress that it's extremely important when migrating anything WordPress that you clean out all garbage before hand and update everything. Files, plug-ins, themes. Dump any plug-ins or themes that you are not using, they can carry very nasty trash with them. Think STD's.

What's their URL? Hostopolis.com doesn't load and even Google didn't return anything hosting related for "hostopolis". Weird. Better go with some established and reputable host-check my sig.

Brad, thanks, I'll check it out later.

Denny, try dot net or dot ca. They have others, too. Their server close to me is in New York. I haven't run traceroutes yet.

hostopolis.net doesn't load either, .ca does but that domain gets no traffic, it's probably not a real host, just a reseller.

Exactly what Sly said.

And yes it's straightforward to move your WP sites, our staff will do that for you and you can work with them on testing. If you want a control panel and a plugin like Cpanel and Softaculous you can do that however it's not my first recommendation.

Not loading for me either. There are a dozen companies in the adult space that have small inexpensive packages. Go with one of them.

Well, that is just a terrible domain name and I hope they only spent $9 on it.

You know that's not a real hosting company with employees, right? They also did a really bad job using search and replace on the terms of service.

I don't know what kind of sites you are planning on but this is from their terms of service at https://www.hostapolis.com/terms-of-service.php.

Do yourself a favor and go with a bonafide Adult Friendly host that supports the industry.

Brad is one of the best

I had sites since 1993 and never had porn on any of them. In my niche, it wasn't necessary. Then 18 USC 2257 came along ... now it's just non-adult sites. With no privacy, no memory and no money, mainstream is best. In the future, though ...

If you are looking for reliable shared hosting, I'd go with Hawkhost or Hostwinds.

They only move cPanel sites. Hostapolis now says they won't either. Now I'm waiting for Brad to email me.

Depends on how many sites you have. I recently moved a few WP sites there "manually" quite fast and smoothly.
