I am very happy with Yahoo! Small Business web hosting. While not one of the least expensive provider, it is probably of of the most reliable ones. For the last six month of hosting our website with them we had 0 downtime. If you are have an online store downtime can cost you in revenue. Thumb up for Yahoo! Hosting!!!

Yahoo has configured its CGI so there is no cgi=bin… the CGI scripts sit in WWW document space. Also, directory listing is enabled and cannot be switched off. This is not a serious hosting configuration.

Yahoo is the worst hosting company. Their tech support reps are extremely NOT knowledgeable. And a lot of features are working only in the first 2 weeks of registration and without notification, suddenly it stopped working. Called the tech support 30 times (seriously) within 2 weeks, and all they can do is transfer me back and forth. One time I ended up in Yahoo! Personals (hmmm, isn’t that the dating site??? how does that have anything to do with Yahoo Hosting?!). Then, I was having problem with their SSL server. So first reply from an email they sent is that ‘we don’t support advance scripting’. Helloo, I know that, but everything was working fine for 2 weeks, how can it just stopped working when I didn’t even change anything in my files. Then second reply, Yahoo said ‘yes you are correct, it is the problem with the ssl server’ and that’s it, no solution given. Third reply, they just gave me an email template that has nothing to do whatsoever with my issue.

I can’t believe a company such as Yahoo can have a lot of stupid tech support reps!

Yahoo’s customer service is even worse than their tech support. I was told they were the most reliable hosting company available. After 4 hours of dealing with Tech support people who could barely speak english, it was finally determined that my website which had been designed for Unix would not be compatible with their windows servers without an entire redesign. I canceled the service the day I signed up, but yahoo billed me anyway. After 5 months, I noticed the erroneous charges and spent 40 minutes on the phone with billing. The guy was nice and said it would be credited. Unfortunately, Yahoo will only credit 2 months as it took me 5 months to notice it and their policy is to only credit a max of 2 months, plus I am told that I had active service at least that is what I think the non-english speaking supervisor said. Now I have to go through my credit card company to get the charges removed. Between their out-sourcing and lack of responsibility, I can only hope that their business practices catch up with them and I never hear the name Yahoo again.

Yahoo Webhosting is pathetic. Save your money and your grey hairs. I am frankly shocked. I signed up a week ago, (ottoschick.org), tried their setup software over 50 times, can’t get it to work, called their Webhosting Tech Support over 40 times (Tel. 866-800-8092) and each time is says the hold time is 30 minutes or more, even at 2am. I’ve waited some times up to 55 minutes and gave up. Try it yourself. The one rep I reached told me it was my computers fault, or maybe my Virus software. Right. So they’ve charged me, I don’t have a website, and i can’t reach anyone to solve it. Atrocious ! I also will be going to my credit card company to seek a refund. Truly pathetic and so very unexpected. otto
