InternetMillionaires.com.my has seen it’s fair share of problems in the past few weeks. A lot of members complained that they did not receive email, website down, slow downloads etc.
After some research, it all boils down to our shared hosting account on Exabytes. Recently, we also got an email from Exabytes to stop not send out more than 1,000 emails a day or they will shut us down. Unfortunately our membership base has increased to over 1,600 members and posed a problem.
Therefore the only solution we had, was to move back to our own dedicated server.
Our initial expectation hosting this site with Exabytes was because we were able to obtain a Malaysian IP address. This would not only mean that search engines would see our site as more Malaysia-oriented, but also ensure better access to Malaysians if the international Internet gateways were down. However, now we see the advantages of bringing it back to our own dedicated server.
So we’re working towards eliminating all existing problems with our site, in order for it to grow more in the future.

Ini masalahnya jika kita gunakan share hosting. Tapi kalau nak pakai fix IP atau server sendiri, kosnya agak tinggi sikit.
I think it’s a good move and justified. Here’s to a speedy transition Gobala and gang!
