Ix Web Hosting Review & Coupon $38 Discount – IXwebhosting Hosted

Its a great news for ix web hosting customers, ixwebhosting are currently improving their servers and increase server performance. For this to work, some customer accounts and websites will be migrated to new servers, off-load currnet server… and so on. Expect the ix web hosting ($3.95/mo and onward) to deliver improved performance for the same price. Not all customers accounts will be effected, only those account being effected will be early email informed.

“We have been alerted to the fact that life on your server has not been so great. Load times are slower than they should be, some downtime may be experienced, or uploading content to your sites is not the quick and easy process it once was. If you have no idea what I’m talking about, that’s great…but you may become acquainted with these symptoms soon if we don’t do something about it now.

What we have decided to do is migrate accounts away from your server in order for the quality of life to improve across all accounts. Your account may be migrated (and if it is, what to expect is outlined below) or you may remain on your current server. Either way, you should notice a marked improvement in performance!

Migrations will begin on Monday, September 21st and continue through Friday. If your account is one of the ones being migrated, you will receive a ticket in the helpdesk informing you that the process has been initiated and what to expect.

These changes are being made so that you may experience much higher-quality service levels – the service levels you signed up for.

Again, if your account is not migrated, you will remain on your current server with nothing changed but, hopefully, your satisfaction with our service.

The potential side effects for migrated accounts are as follows:

1. If you have dedicated IP addresses for your domains or sub-domains, they will be assigned new ones, but the old ones will be forwarded to the new ones so that you do not experience any downtime. If you have a shared IP, that IP will change and your site may become unavailable to you for viewing online due to DNS propagation for a potential period of a few days (but you may continue to make changes to your site and new visitors can still access your site without any delay).
2. There should be absolutely no downtime for email. If you experience any issues with receiving email following the move, please be sure to place a ticket immediately to our helpdesk!
3. Mass improvement! We expect that this move will improve your experience with us two fold.

As a side note, if you host your DNS elsewhere, a separate ticket will be opened for you in our helpdesk with additional information on why DNS will need to change after the move to our nameservers. Of course, this is at no additional cost but it will be a necessary process post-migration.

We apologize for the troubles residing on this server thus far may have caused you. A post about this will be placed on our status blog and we’ll be sure to keep you updated if there are any changes.“

If you are new with ix web hosting plan and now sure how to access to their hosting control panel, here is the best place to get the big picture of it. Cause ixwebhosting is not using cpanel, thus you cannot do yourdomain.com/cpanel kind of thing. Ix web hosting is using h-sphere control panel, and you have to go to their control panel login site to gain access. Usually i will go to either of following URL:

• http://manage.ixwebhosting.com/
• https://manage.ixwebhosting.com/

You can perform normal http login or the https secure login to your ix web hosting control panel. Enter your account email and password to gain access to the ixwebhosting control panel. Once you managed to login successfully, you will be brought to following URL:

• https://manage.ixwebhosting.com/index.php/cpanelcustomeraccount.dspmain

This is the main page of your ix control panel. Here is where you manage your hosting account(s), your domain, your extra ddon services, update your personal information, update your billing information, and from here you can find the link to ix web hosting support and also create new email ticket too! A comprehensive list of features are all located here.

With the new ix web hosting homepage design, now you can visit to www.ixwebhosting.com to login to your hosting account. At the top right corner you will see the “account login”.. click on it will bring up the login box, enter your email account and password to gain access.

* Your IP address is a FULL DEDICATED IP address. That means that you will be able to access your website immediately by using only the IP address instead of your domain name. Please note that newly registered domains or domains that whose nameservers were changed recently need up to 48 hours before they function properly and point to your IX hosting account. But as mentioned, through the IP address you will be able to begin uploading your website right away, as well as view it online by using its dedicated IP address above.

This september 2008, ix web hosting had updated their homepage and introducing a new design theme. Much more user friendly, and highlighted its hosting services and new products that including: web design service, merchant account, ecommerce service, echat service, etc

And the ixwebhosting support (live chat) button had been moved to homepage too. Previously its appear in support page only. This appear to be more convenient and more accessible, even for new user.

Previous month, we saw ixwebhosting upgraded their data centre and moved to a new location. During the month of april, there was some service interruption during the migration. But ix hosting technical team managed to migrate the servers and websites in shorter time than scheduled. Which mean the service interruption is far less than expected.

Currently, ixwebhosting is offering web hosting services to over 350,000 domain/websites. And its a good effort that they upgrade their data centre and offering much more features and upgrade their hosting plan specification. Following are what offered at ix data centre:

• IXwebhosting privately owned State-of-the-Art data center
• Multiple tier-1 backbone providers
• Redundant power through diesel generators
• Multi-Layer security infrastructure with Hacker-Safe certified.
• Skilled In-House customer support team, available 24/7 to assist you.
• Advanced data center security protocols for maximum physical security.

For the ixwebhosting data centre, they uses internet connection from various backbone providers like: AT&T, Bellsouth, Qwest, Verizon. With total bandwidth of 1292mps up to date… and still growing.

As many people not knowing that ixwebhosting and hostexcellence in actually located in the same location or datacentre. And they both are from same company. Just that hostexcellence is new company and targeted at different market segment. Probably i am the first one to discover this. While reviewing ix web hosting and hostexcellence hosting, i discover that their phone number are very identical, using the same type of hosting control panel hsphere, IP address are from same network mask, and they are located in same datacentre as well.

Hostexcellence is offering a bit more expensive hosting package. And currently only offering package start from $6.95 with 6 domain hosting. And also unlimited domain hosting package. Compared to ixwebhosting, the smallest package $3.95 package is missing. Other than that, ixwebhosting is offering much more services like merchant services, web design services, etc etc.

Ixwebhosting is a very good hosting company with good server uptime. I been using it since few months back, and happy with what i paid for. Really worth it! I also belief that hostexcellence will do the same, or might be even better.
