1&1internet – Hosting Suckage

1&1Internet Web Hosting Screen Capture

Are you hosting your blog with 1&1internet? This dandy of a hosting outfit also known as 1and1.com just might allow you to open up a support ticket if you are currently blogging on their servers. Or, perhaps you’d be interested in taking a gander at the 1and1internet Web site to see what products they offer? If you’re lucky, you can have a chance at purchasing one of their products. Or can you?

Nope.

Here’s the error message I received from 1and1internet at the order.1and1.com page:

Service Temporarily Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.
Apache Server at order.1and1.com Port 80

If a leading global blog hosting company like 1&1internet cannot even host their own order page, what’s the world coming to?

    oh well, only if you don’t do anything at all you cant make mistakes.
    Sure its annoying, but i have seen worse hosting providers. Some who don’t give you any support at all (“Our email server? No, we can’t set you up with a mailbox on your domain. Can you not use yahoo or hotmail instead?”), or some who always need 2 days to reply to a ticket, or the company who got the data center flooded during the annual spring flood a couple of years ago …
