    Comments: I have had a great experience with Lunarpages over the course of several years. I maintain about a half-dozen sites there and have directed at least that many other developers to Lunarpages.

      Comments: I have just started with them recently but everything has been fine so far. Support has been excellent on the couple of small problems I have had to date.

      I just wish they would add Joomla, Wordpress and some more choices in the galleries on Fantastico.

        Comments: Lunar Pages is a great host, quick to respond to support requests, decent server performance, and a great value for hosting multiple domains on the same account. I might have misunderstood the previous post, but Joomla and Wordpress are both available for install using Fantastico, as well as several galleries.

          Comments: Lunarpages does not security the databases. They have their customers SQL databases outsite the firewall. I received an error message when my SQL server would not work that gave me the administrator username and password. They gave me access to all the users SQL databases, usernames, passwords, customer data etc. I notified Lunar on March 9th, 2007 and sent them 56 pages of screens shots of all the user database, usernames etc. As of March 14th 2007, I still have access to all their customer databases and user information. I would not recommended anyone using their services if they are worried about their data.

            Comments: on the whole, lunarpages has been fine for me. but that is considering the fact that I dont run any critical apps on their servers. if i needed dedicated hosting, i would go for rackspace or theplanet. i had a support issue also once with them...

                Comments: They recently started stealing 404 pages. They put up a search page as a 404 error, with your domain name displayed, and a search box that says it will search your site but really returns sponsored ads. So I guess it's not a problem if you NEVER have broken links..

                  Comments: They started off fine, and then it went downhill quickly. I'd recommend staying away from them!
