Did a really stupid thing Did a really stupid thing. While cleaning up some really old email accounts, I deleted a very active email account. Support was able to restore it! Only one possible improvement -- I don't mind waiting my turn for support, but it's near impossible to NOT do anything else. It would be really helpful if you could find a way ring a bell or flash the text window when the tech is finally available.

Database Cannot Connect Error Our website was getting a Database Cannot Connect error. Daniel N was very friendly, researched the issue, kept me in the loop, and resolved the problem. I want to commend Daniel N's services. Toastmasters/District 39 has been with WestHost for many years and you have provided stellar services. Thank you.

Daniel N was so helpful Daniel N was so helpful. He stayed with me for two hours (!) while I worked with my site hosting company to resolve several serious errors on my website. He knew what he was doing, even when my web hosting company did not, and was very patient and supportive to resolve things that were well above my 'tech grade'. The feeling when you read the words "Everything fixed now" is such a relief. Many thanks!

Westhost is a nightmare Westhost sends an email saying, "congratulations, your website migration is complete and was successful." Not until several screenloads below does the email say that you must take action within just 7 days or they will take down your website and delete your emails. No forewarning. No urgent reminders. No subject line warning. Furthermore, it says that you must update your DNS records but not exactly what changes to make. The email migration itself causes problems, with email readers on windows, Android, and Apple not correctly reflecting folders and their contents. In short, a nightmare. Yet you cannot get though to costumer support by chat, phone, or email, which is undoubtedly flooded from the mess they have created for their customers. At the same time, hosting prices are rising. In short, time for a new host. Suggestions?

Scott L Scott L. was extremely helpful to assist me with switching back and forth between PHP 7.4 and 8.0 to identify issues we were having with a WP theme. We were able to expose issues with the theme to confirm our assumptions it is time to migrate to a new WP theme that is more compatible and supported by developers for PHP 8.0. Scott was patient, willing, and articulate and providing easy clear support.
