That was the reply given by one of web hosting providers when I asked them why I couldn’t create any sub-domains. Reliability is also another important issue.

from there, they provide us very detail informations about every single thing in our blog or site..

last time, from pingdom I know adverlets had a problem and then I’ve posted a complain to Josh Lim and he responded to it quickly

Thanks for your explanation. I had written to both Hosgator (hosting provider) and Dynadot (Registrar) for information regarding the matter because CNNIC (China Internet Network Information Center) is involved too.

Maybe I should try out their 30-day free trial

Since you appeared to be knowledgeable about “response time”, do you think what I heard about the Chinese domain names being slow is true?

I’m using some of the best servers in the world but the Chinese domain registries are executing some the commands before the pages are being served by the browsers.

Just like driving a fast sport car in Kajang Town.

Darn DDoS again, I hate it.

It is about Chinese domains.

Getting a reliable hosting provider is of the outmost importance. Getting the right domains is equally (if not more) important too. I bought a lot of Chinese domains (.cn, .hk, etc) – including expensive ones at $150 each – since there were so many good keywords still available in early 2006. I was happy until I noticed that my websites with Chinese domains were very slow-loading despite minimum graphics and no fanciful stuffs – just pure HTML pages. I was told that the relevant Chinese authorities were monitoring incoming and outgoing traffic of domains under their control (the domain registries in China) thus an explanation for the delays. I was also told that their Internet infrastructure was still not good resulting in slow Internet traffic. Since not popular anymore .cn domains are so cheap, less than $3 now. It was about $150 each when I bought Forum.cn which is no longer mine.

I still have Girls.hk.cn, Website.hk.cn, Paintball.hk.cn, etc. About ten of them

Anybody to add about Chinese domains?

During my younger days on the Net in early 1994 – I’m not too old – I was using cheap hosting services without a care about my websites’ (+500, YES +500) uptime and downtime until I discovered some of them had been getting no traffic at all. I don’t want to name any names but the hosting providers were in Malaysia. Despite desperate numerous phone calls and emails, no explanations given – but they were quick to send various reminders and junk mails . I said goodbye to them and signed up for hosting services in the US.

Now I’m happy because my presence on the Net is almost 99%. I will have a look at Pingdom. Thanks.
