@Venu yeah I moved to MT Dedicated Virtual Hosting even that sucks it costs whooping $50 per month, support is still pathetic. MT is just overrated.

I just moved to MT and now I read this post !!
As you mentioned, support seems to be pretty bad, haven’t got a response from my first query even after 30 hours.. i guess that is MT’s way of welcoming new users !

Meanwhile I just ran a whois query on your domain, it shows that you are on MT ? Did you move back to MT ?

if you read the bluehost forums, CPU errors are daily occurrences for many wordpress blogs on bluehost.

@Crazy Penguin I moved from shared to dedicated hosting on Media Temple the irony. Bluehost screwed me and mediatemple DV sucks dedicated is the way to go. try slicehost if you can manage a linux box on your own.

My experience with Bluehost was nothing short of a disaster.
I could write a novel on how pathetically poor their service had been for me.

The short version of my experience can be read here.

Thanks for posting your experiences with BlueHost and Media Temple. I had been considering MT until I researched them. I subscribed to their Media Temple’s blog RSS feed, which includes status/trouble reports (they are omitted from the blog Web page), where I observed frequent outages and other problems.

I had been satisfied with Blue Host at first. Unfortunately BlueHost kept stopping my site because of CPU use (or so it reported; I believe that high use by other sites on the same shared server were causing the overages). I am intrigued by the report in the comments here, that BlueHost offers a “high CPU use” plan. Hmmm …!

@pm Interesting maybe I need to look around a bit. Thanks for the tip.

they do have one, it’s just not advertised.

but maybe your site is so well designed you have fewer processes running?
