Ok so I am happy with my ability to run a host and want to take it to the next level. This means I want to really create a brand name and compete with the host 000webs. Currently I have 6 paid clients and 10 or so with a free account.

I would like your honest opinion on our new name and design that is Gemstone hosting, where every site is a gem. Also check out the packages and feel free to comment, I really need input on that. In order to be the best host I need feedback even if you aren't or never plan on hosting with us.

Thanks for your help:meow:

And note: site still under construction, packages are as they are listed on home page.

Thanks guys. Lol I am aware that ruby's are red but purple will have to do for now. And thanks for pointing out spelling errors.

That's so cool :D
One thing: http://99webs.info/gemstonehosting/Hosting.html
The images showing the prices look a bit... "stretched" and not neat especially the green one.

would anyone be able to make me better price tags because I suck at Photoshop when it comes to finding a good font for numbers with a good scale:hmmm: Heres an original copy too. http://99webs.info/gemstonehosting/site/images/price1.gif Would greatly appreciate the help.

Do you have the name of the font? I might be able to help with that if I have time xD

Nemesis

Thanks for offering your help, but that was the problem, that default picture that came with the template didn't include the original psd files so im not sure what the font is and there is a lot. I just need to find the time to make it look good. But I already have a Calculus exam in 5 days.

This sounds interesting. I do not plan to use it myself but Id recommend it to Mys users. And Nemesis, you may want to offer some special services regarding Mys script such as professional installation? This way it will be more appealing even if you raise the price a bit.

Nemesis

Very good suggestion. Offering free installations will be appealing, and we have a script auto installer. which 000webs does not, and will not provide support for any script installation. As for the prices I will not raise them, I have them set at as fair as can be. I am even bumping the free package up to 1 gigabyte of space so there's no need to upgrade unless you wish to host more sites :)

As a matter of fact, 000webs does have the auto-installer, but I tried to use it and it was, er, broken ^^

Exactly lol, Ours should be working. And for scripts not supported I will install, as I did for Cindykt.

Is the site ready yet?

Nemesis
06-20-2011, 10:47 PM
interested are we:usedusedused: well yes and no. Yes as in I am hosting sites and seems things seem to be running fine. No as in our main site is not fully finnished or ready to promote, and you may encounter a few bugs.

But if you are interested in being a beta tester I was gonna request you guys try it out eventually. So by all means please register through gemstone site, as that is the software i want to test out:smile: and thank you so much in advance for anyone that tests it, I will be happy to offer free hosting for any package you need forever, just ask:happycbig:

Nemesis, for your font problem you could just remake it in a new font that you know and have it in PDF. You don't necessarily have to use that, just keep the colors and such.

Also I want to test it out and look through the site, I'll register right away :D

EDIT: Whenever I try to access your site I get instantly redirected to something unrelated. :/

Which PHP version is running on your server?

Nemesis
06-21-2011, 08:53 AM
weird, could you please specify the url? though im guessing it was http://99webs.info/gemstonehosting/. Thanks for reporting this I'll look into it but not sure how this could be happening. Never seen or had this reported before.

Which PHP version is running on your server?

One server is running 5.2.17 While the other is 5.2.14 as of now. Would either meet your requirements?

No, unfortunately....
I'm looking for a server running on PHP 5.3.x

try stonerocket.net it's post to host but it running PHP 5.3.3

06-21-2011, 02:16 PM
Well PHP 5.3.3. I love the new functions introduced in PHP 5.3.x, especially those date/time functions. The problem is most hosting services only use PHP 5.2.x, so its not a real good idea to develop this product with PHP 5.3.x exclusive syntax.

Nemesis

Well I'll see what I can do about updating the versions. I'll put a launch date for gemstone hosting at the end of the month. What would you guys think of this promotional plan, to get sapphire or ruby hosting free you need to get 5 and 10 referrals using our referral link? Seems like a good fair way to increase awareness and give free packages :happyc:

Okay, the link is fixed now, it's not sending me to the random page. And Nem, I think that's a good idea. I'm sure it'll cause more popularity.

I'm curious when I'll be able to register and use my account, I'd like to use this web hosting :3

Nemesis
07-18-2011, 02:07 PM
oh sorry thanks for inquiring, I have finals this week (friday) and have been extremely busy so the host will not be able to launch or have design finnished or help much with installations or site transfers.

However if you want to sign up and install a site yourself it is ready. just visit link in sig, register, login and you can set up your site. Thanks and if you need help ask just not sure when i'll have time to get to it.

It doesn't let me login, it just takes me to a page asking for E-mail, PW, and Language. When I press login after correctly filling things out and trying multiple possibilities for a password, it still doesn't do anything.

Nemesis
07-18-2011, 08:59 PM
i need the exact link. did you use the client login from the link in my site? and yeah i know somethings are glitchy and not fully done yet. sorry im gonna get to it.

Nemesis

I just checked and we don't have any new accounts on record. Please try and reorder. Also you must validate your account through email. if you still have problems pm me and i will make you an account.

Aight, well, last time I tried to register it didn't give me a confirmation in my e-mail. Re-registered, got one, and things are looking fine.

Nemesis
07-19-2011, 03:32 PM
ok i see you signed up with a .com our name servers are
ns1.99webs.info - 64.120.228.123
ns2.99webs.info - 64.191.115.234
ns3.99webs.info - 173.192.183.247
ns4.99webs.info - 83.170.93.81

to make a .99webs.info subdomain you don't need to re-register but from your client login that is also from cpanel from there you can add domains.

Back from vacation. I was boating the last 3 days and am now back. I had 4 new client support tickets inquiring about hosting and I am pretty sure they came from here as I have disclosed gemstone no where else. So if anyone needs hosting, let me know, give me the details, and your site will be up :)
