Hostgator hosts IPboard

[jeffgnf]

Hi!

I am now using IX webhosting to host IPBoard. It is really TOO slow to open in China (tho. their services are very good).

So I URGENTLY need to change to another reliable webhosting company. Do you know how the speed is for Hostgator to host IPBoard?

Anyone uses hostgator to host IPBoard? Could you kindly give me the links?

Thank you very much for your help!

you can use IPB on HG, no problem.

When you get your package here, HG will try to transfer your current account from IX hosting, specially if they are using Cpanel.

In my opinion this is the best way to get around the transfer,
- Get a Package from HG
- Ask them to transfer the site from IX Hosting (you can do this one too)
- Put your current IPB in (view only) mod
- Verify that the site is working fine on HG, via the IP address
- Switch your DNS

I run IP.Board here, on my own site, and help Admin another install for someone else.

HG works great for our needs.

If you have a LARGE forum you may need to go to a VPS or Dedi, but for a medium-sized one you should be fine.
