Visit To Lunarpages Data Centers

September 13th, 2008 @ 3:56 am Tagged with , , ,



Lunarpages Data Center In L.A.

Unfortunately enough, I have not yet get the honor to visit the data center of Lunarpages. I believe the visit to their data center will definitely be an eye opening experience as they are having the world top technology on hand.

As discussed in Lunarpages data center, we have known that data center is the backbone of a web hosting company. With the fact that all they sell is the storage inside the server computer. No wonder Lunarpages web host has invested in 4 data centers in getting their quality service. These data centers are not just normal computer rooms but they have unsurpassed network connections and serve to cover the accessibility across the world. For your information, their data center location, One Wilshire (located in Los Angeles) and Marquisnet (in Nevada) are among the best data centers in the world. Without questioning, the technology and facilities being used in the data centers are world-class. The server chipsets, HVAC systems, UPS, network connections, maintenance and etc.

Here is a review done by b2evolution.net after visiting the data center in Lunarpages. You might be interested in taking a closer look at what b2evolution.net has to say.

Review On Lunarpages

September 12th, 2008 @ 7:58 am Tagged with , ,



Lunarpages Score
9 / 10
Very Good

I would give a 9 to Luarnpages for reasons.

I always have this concept in mind that if one could survive in a tough field, like web hosting industry, one must be very capable. And for Lunarpages who has established for more than 8 years and not only still around but with her strong position in the market, the quality of their services speaks for itself.

I myself am a customer of Lunarpgages and have been around with them for more than 3 years. I host my web site, business, data, email and etc with Lunarpages and of cause they do not give me any problems. I have been one of their satisfied customers all this while except for one thing that I have not receive my loyalty rewards from them yet. ?

There are reasons why Lunarpages deserves the high scores and I have put them down in point form below.

High Reliability – 99.9% Uptime

99.9% uptime is what Lunarpages has achieved. Lunarpages has altogether 3 data centers to serve the users. Two are located in California and one in Las Vegas. All 3 have redundant power supply and are well designed for controlled humidity and air circulation. Speaking on this, Lunarpages is also famous of their server monitoring by technicians on duty. Meaning every moment of time, there is somebody on duty monitoring my web hosting. Any sparkle on the system will be found out. No wonder 99.9% uptime.

Effective Support

Support is one of my most concerned issues when come to picking up web hosting. And believe me Lunarpages has done a very good job on this. All sort of supports are provided by Lunarpages to resolve customers’ issue at the soonest time. One of the useful supports is the LunarDesk. It is a ticket system submitting your technical queries to them. I had some experiences dealing with this when my websites are not accessible due to some setting. They had shown professionalism in doing their job as a quick reply was received. When I say quick, that is almost instantly. That was indeed impressive. Later that I found out their support has won them numerous awards and 24/7/365 supports are available.

cPanel – User Friendly

Lunarpages uses cPanel as their webhosting control panel. Needless to say, it is user friendly enough. It is designed for lame man use and everything is just a few clicks away. With cPanel, I am able to manage features that had previously been reserved for the Lunarpages. With the ease of one-click, I can install applications, mange files and email addresses, create domain names, upload pictures and music, password protect directories, etc.

Free Softwares

I get free software with my hosting plan. Lunarpages from time to time will work with others developers to add features into their services. One of my favorite is CoffeeCup software. CoffeeCup make things easy to create cool websites. Their Award Winning HTML Editor, Flash Form Builder and other Web Design Software are truly make website designing easy and hassle free for me. To me, this serves as another plus point for Lunarpages.

Low Pricing

With all the services available, the price of the hosting is more than fair. It cost you only $4.95/mo for basic hosting plan. I sometime cannot really understand how Lunarpages manages to survive on the low price yet maintaining such a good quality.

Bottom line, will I recommend Lunarpages to people? You bet! Lunarpages is so far the best web hosting provider that I have ever experienced with. For sure I believe you might read somewhere else that Lunarpages experienced down time or slow or bad support, etc. I do not know what happen to them, but to me, they serve me well. Do not take me wrong I am not their huge customers and I do not get special treatment from them. What I feel is they are serious about their job and they do show their professionalism in conducting the business. It is their will that drive them to become one of the leaders in the industry.
