Bad news me and growing bloggers

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

Today i got this Email from my webhost.

Hi,
Your site akshayy.com is causing heavy load on server, it appears your site is grown and now not suitable for shared hosting, you are requested to move your site to another provider or better upgrade to VPS solution.

You are requested to move your site before 1st June 2008.

Thanks
for eWebGuru.com

I am soo confused what to do. Am trying to contact my web-host now.

I get daily visitor of 3000+ on Wordpress Stats and 1100 Unique Visitors a day. And now i got this email. This is tiny website according to stats

Strange!

Ravi might know something about this. Are you sure it's not fake?

Or is it that it exceeded bandwidth?

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

no its not fake as such... i got this email from eWebguru.

The email id is something like this

ewebguru.com@gmail.com

May be you are right its a fake mail

[narangz]

They won't send from gmail. I bet

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

yeah sucks. i don't exceed the bandwidth given to me.. that is 20 GB so why should i get this email from my host.

let me verify.. also stupid email id
ewebguru.com@gmail dot com
it should be ewebguru @ gmail dot com

Ewebguru is Ashok's site. Whose hosting are you using?

Ewebguru is Ashok's site. Whose hosting are you using?
And no web hosting provider would use a gmail id. Seems Fake

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

Pathik >> Right Ashok's site only. I mean Ashok's hosting, Ashok's server.

he should be informed about this anyway.. LOL !!

 

[narangz]

Yes it's fake. However it seems very strange. They haven't asked for any personal info. So what could be the purpose?

 

[Pathik]

Then contact him first, dude.

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

tried on yahoo messenger .. he is away. Will call him up tomorrow morning on phone.

 

[Cyrus_the_virus]

Lol, yeah it's fake, seems like some other desperate host is trying to take away his business.

 

[narangz]

^^Then he should've provided a link

 

[Cyrus_the_virus]

^^Then he should've provided a link

I meant like make the host loose his customers and negative publicity, not like they might be trying to catch, and yeah, if it was that way, they should have given some other link.

 

[narangz]

Negative publicity- Yes! He might loose some valuable customers. Akshayy contact the provides ASAP. He might loose his business.

 

[praka123]

what is this?some hidden war b/w hosting ppl? I am sure someone purposefully did this

 

[QwertyManiac]

Sorta viral marketing? Scare, spread FUD and win.

Of course, it cant be his own work. Well, unless you really are using too much CPU. The hits stats you have said are quite high, shared hosting?

You can make things more efficient if the host keeps complaining. I've had to do that once in a while.

 

[ArZuNeOs]

Gee thanks for the info Akshay .....

BTW what an Abhorable technique

 

[Cyrus_the_virus]

@akshay, have you contacted the host? What did they say about it?

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

he is not taking the yahoo call yet !!
have to call him on phone.. but this part i hate.
may be i will mail him.

 

[phreak0ut]

drgrudge site had gone due to heavey load I think this post is fake. Try contacting him first. Losing business because some other loser rival is not good.
