SpringWebHost: Sorry, I'm talking about .ng domains not .com. Not even .com.ng |

No way, who said they are the best? Godaddy is the best, just do an opinion poll and you would see. |

Ok. There is a group called ICANN (The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers), it is responsible for allotting country code (ccTLD) Top-Level Domains. In plain terms, ICANN, a foreign organization is responsible for the .ng allocation to Nigeria and the servers for the .ng are not located in Nigeria. Before you can propose a domain name extension(eg .ng, .anything), you must be a government or some big shot with millions of dollars to spend to acquire the status of a default registrant of such domain extension. In a nutshell, we do not have servers in Nigeria. musicwriter: |

SpringWebHost: I'm aware of all these you're talking about. My concern have been on the .ng domain, only. I will verify this claim of yours. I don't believe our government domains like .gov.ng is hosted in foreign countries. |

Bro, I do hardly make a comment on Nairaland but on your case I have to, since I have a reason to. From my experience, Whogohost seems OK because I do subscribe to their services for more than five (5) years and I don't experience any kind of issue whatsoever with their service. I strongly recommend them for you. |

Ok. But bear in mind... Which company in Nigeria do you think can run, maintain server resources and technical know-hows required to have a server in Nigeria? Do you think you could have been able to afford a .ng name considering the above? Even at 15k or so for a .ng, people still find it difficult to register. The reason why it is so expensive compared to some other country code (ccTLD) Top-Level Domains is that, the market here is limited compared to the cost of keeping .ng active at the registry. .gov is exclusive to government agencies as .edu is to education, you'll require some government official documents to register them. THEY ARE ALL SERVERS ABROAD... musicwriter: |

Don't ever use a Nigerian host. they leave u stranded. take 9jahoster.com as an example. they folded up. best hosting service now. try cloud servers from digitalocean.com |
Re: Advice Needed: Is Whogohost.com The Best Nigeria Web Hosting Provider by SpringWebHost: 10:19pm On Apr 25, 2015 |
Businesses fold up all the time but if you could recall, 9jahoster.com offered its clients the option to move their websites before folding up. I think that was fair enough. There are hosting firms in Nigeria with over ten years in hosting business and they are solid. fabzizy93: |

Is whogohost.com not the same as ihostafrica.com, those ihostafrica guys are scammers they duped me of 5k plus for web hosting & domain name registration. Since August 2015 till now they never offered the services nor refunded my money. If you are not scammers pls refund back my money & win back the trust of people. Thanks |

pelij18: No, I wasn't. I'm a website developer. One of our challenges is good local hosting services. My statement was made to encourage those doing a good job. Right now i am hosting over 50 websites with whogohost and the list keeps growing. |
Re: Advice Needed: Is Whogohost.com The Best Nigeria Web Hosting Provider by kingthreat(m): 7:01pm On Feb 12, 2016 |
charsobodo: No. Ihostafrica seems like they encountered big problem and quitted web hosting for awhile. Most of these web hosts are a one man organization, which should never be. |

Don't ever use whogohost. From the first day I started hosting with them on December 2015 till today, my site has been down for 20 times. It's a very terrible experience. The only good thing about whogohost is their customer services , after that, be expecting your site to be going down once in a while for an average of 30 minutes each time it goes down |
Re: Advice Needed: Is Whogohost.com The Best Nigeria Web Hosting Provider by whogohost: 9:14pm On Apr 13, 2016 |
Jackofall: I am sorry you have been having issues with your site. I however suspect that this issue may be relative to your site and not our servers or service. Like most shared hosting companies, we have limits set in place to ensure the stability of our servers. If your site exceeds those limits, chances are your site may not be accessible during that period. We will however be willing to look into this matter. If you can provide the ticket ID of the mail you sent in, our support team will definitely reach out to you. We pride ourselves in giving the best of support and service and apologise if you have had any issues using our service. We do hope to hear from you. |
Re: Advice Needed: Is Whogohost.com The Best Nigeria Web Hosting Provider by Nobody: 2:09am On Apr 17, 2016 |
whogohost: Sorry for yourself. What useless limit? I hardly get up to 40 visitors per day on my site, and I subscribe to the premium package which is higher than basic. There is nothing wrong with my site, it's powered by WordPress(and autoupdate is not enabled, in order to prevent my site from going down during updates) and I use a standard newspaper theme that reputable sites(e.g punchng) use for their websites. There is absolutely nothing wrong with my site, and my site doesn't auto update, the problem is definitely coming from your server. You are just trying to protect the image of whogohost and I won't let other fall victim to your substandard services. I repeat!!!! The only thing good about whogohost is their customer service. The server stays up online most times but be expecting your site to be going down once or twice in a week, each down time with an average of 20-50 minutes. That's the service they provide. If you need prove I will post the screenshot of all the downtimes reported by Jetpack. |

chillykelly86:Whogohost is very efficient when it has to do with reminding you of renewals, and disconnecting you the morning of your date, apart from that, they are as competent as NEPA, with lousy customer service. 1 Like |
