I switched for KnownHost VPS from Wiredtree(that's another horrible story) on 09/21/2009 and I thought I could finally get a reliable web hosting. However, I was wrong.
There are many times that I have to refresh several times before I can access my site webpage or the ftp. The site was very unstable that it down for a minute, then up, then down for a minute. I really need to admit that they have very fast response time for the tickets. Their support told me that everything was normal, memory use, http service is up, but I keep receiving site down notifications from my both site monitor services. A couple of days ago, I had the same problem again. After several support tickets, Knownhost are still telling that everything is fine, but I still kept receiving pingdom site monitor notifications. I had a total of 21 down alerts and 21 up again alerts. Then after a couple of hours, they told me that my VPS server was under a DOS attack! So I had no choice but moving to another VPS company. Now I paste the uptime stats of my Knownhost VPS from SiteUptime.com Year Month Outages Uptime Downtime 2011 October 8 97.774% 2.226% 2011 September 7 98.959% 1.041% 2011 August 4 99.494% 0.506% 2011 July 6 98.683% 1.317% 2011 June 10 98.939% 1.061% 2011 May 4 99.207% 0.793% 2011 April 2 99.034% 0.966% Year Outages Uptime 2011 41 98.845% As you can see, far from the "highest uptime in the industry" as they stated on their website. Because the check interval of siteuptime.com is 30 minutes, so the real outages could be even more.
