Customer testimonials

I have been looking at for a different hosting service to host my website, but after looking at other testimonials for the other websites I believe I will leave it where it is longer.
The good thing about it is my website has never been down. My emails , never lost.
The thing I wish where different, being able to use PHP 5 and being able to edit the config file.
I have never had a SQL problem and have the basic bus. plan.
At one time I had a custom php shopping cart and on the fly php picture resizing. No problems.
They are hard to get a hold of but never had too.
I have hosted here for about 2 years, and now have unlimited space and bandwidth and email space.
Again, after reading the other testimonials , especially about the emails, I will probably stay. Losing emails would just about end our business.


However, you can only have one domain name per plan.

Where to begin... The control panel is outdated, confusing, and slow. Yahoo doesn't allow access to an .htaccess file, so there's a big security issue right off the bat. What's worse is that their servers also run PHP v4.3.11, so if you're planning on using Wordpress you're stuck back in the dark ages (also the buggy and insecure ages) with v2.9. Save yourself a headache and stay away from Yahoo.

Managing my website is complicated. (Other hosting companies are much easier)
Have been with Yahoo businness for almost 10 years.
Also have domain EMAIL with them.
On January I stopped receiving emails for 3 days.
I had a hard time finding out why.
Turns out my credit card expiration date was 2004.
How did they renew from 2004-2011 with no problem?
And if they are my EMAIL provider, couldn't they have sent my an email notifying me? THEY HAVE MY EMAIL ADDRESS.

Yahoo needs to die. They have ruined so many companies since the early 90's. I have no idea why they still exist. I have dozens of web sites hosted with them through the years, and each one a complete nightmare. I hate this company with a passion.

I have used Yahoo web hosting for many years. I found repeated difficulties in uploading using their file manager and was forced to use an ftp program at additional costs. The site statistics are confusing and lack sufficient detail. The renewal fee for the web hosting was more than twice that of other competitors, despite the fact that I had been with Yahoo for more than five years.

I placed an order to move the domain/hosting to Ipage. I then canceled my Yahoo Business Account. For more [...]

Do NOT host your website on Yahoo. ANY other hosting service will be able to provide far superior customer service, webhosting tools (FOR FREE!) and any other information you need to get your website and email up and running. Whether your a beginner or advanced in web design DO NOT purchase their so called "business hosting" or these over-priced monthly e-commerce tools when there are far better developed and supported tools out there FOR FREE. They treat their customers like it's the 1993 and [...]

I would SERIOUSLY reconsider using Yahoo Web Hosting. For reasons unknown to me, my small business website disappeared. When I called yahoo to inquire, I was faced with an automated service that placed me on hold for over 45 minutes. When I finally reached a customer service representative, I was told to contact the abuse department via email. I complied, only to discover, the next day, that my yahoo business and personal email accounts had both been deleted. I researched online and called [...]

I just had to write this on YAHOO, but I would advise everyone to keep away from them. They must have extremely crappy old servers and nothing has changed..

They are running PHP Version 4.3.11 which is outdated and is not of the required spec for bulletin boards such as vbulletin (Must be 5.1 or higher etc).

Seriously, RUN RUN RUN before yahoo bites the dust.

I bought some domain names with them and they renew the yearly charge for a domain name is $40. Be careful when you pay either $2 or $10 a domain name, its recurrent charge is $40/year and they don't tell you. I canceled the domain name and they still charged me $40 only months later when I scanned my Visa bill and found this bastar Yahoo had charged me for me cancelled domain.

I signed up with Yahoo in April of 2008 to host my website and have had my account charged for the fee every 3 months since then. However, Yahoo did not take over my website from the other hosting company as they said they would. Yahoo has been charging me for a service they did not provide, nor can I get anyone from Yahoo to help me with this problem. People need to beware of what I believe to be fraudulent activities from this company.

Until today, we hosted 15 sites with Yahoo. Out of nowhere Yahoo's Abuse department decided to down one of our sites for TOS violation. We had done nothing and we alone manage the site. Hack? Yahoo support has no phone access to the Abuse department. You can either email or fill out a form on the abuse site. 24 hours later the reply to my email said the 'TOS was violated - that's why we took down your site'. No kidding. No reason how or why. So I filled out the form. There is a field in the [...]

I tried loading some PHP code and got a version error (requires v5). Tested and the code on Yahoo! is version 4. I asked if they had an upgrade scheduled and when that might be - no reply.

YAHOO hosting comes with old PHP, old SQL, you cant implement TYPO3 and modern PHP libraires, they don't respond to emails, but they have 30 day money back guarantee. So you cancel hosting, and if you want money back this is not enough. You must call them by phone. Very handy (for them obviously) ! And they give how many? 1000 emails? But in one day you can send only 250.

Yahoo pulled down our site and will not tell us why. We are just a community group and now we have lost our database and our web presence until we can figure out how to solve this problem. Stay Away!!!!!

They purposefully make it hard to reach them and then after two hours on hold you get off the phone with very little information.
Stay away! I came up with a test to find out how good (or bad) a company is. Call their customer service line and ask to either cancel service or place a [...]

Although their Web Site Builder is easy to use and I have been using their services for my other websites for several years, I'm not happy with their pricing that they have changed. Some hosting plans that you listed in your review are no longer available such as starter plan that used to be offered really cheap. Now they offer plans that start from at least $35 to use both email and domain services. Also, they charge for filtering junk mails, if you don't pay for that service, you will receive [...]

The only website construction I'd ever used before was with Google and when I switched to Yahoo I was amazed at the ease of creating the site! It's the best as far as I'm concerned and I would never go a different way! Even a novice can create a professional site. Don't be afraid to try. Download the Yahoo Website Tools to your desktop and have your site build in a few hours! Go Yahoo!

I have spent over 5 hours on the phone, it was sent to "engineering", and was supposed to be fixed within 3 to 5 business days. I'm still waiting 2 weeks later, with no response! I've sent countless emails, only to receive generic automated responses. I am going to change my webhosting service, and stop Yahoo payment on my [...]

Yahoo's has worst customer service. I couldn't speak to customer service agent even after waiting on phone for more than an hour.

We use site for administrative tools (prices, inventory, invoices, etc) Suddenly site sent a "forbidden" Message, no acces to MYSQL, imposible to reach them by phone, Mail answers are a joke, automated answers, they dont read your problems!!!: "your problem is temporary and will be fixed soon, ..." same responswe always. Really disappointed, but if site is not critical to you it may be ok.

Your review does not match my experience. Here are the facts. I sent emails to which Yahoo's support team never responded. Their URL redirection for subdomains does not work. They only allow one user ID for MySQL databases which creates a security risk for sites that use a database. It took 5 days for their technical staff to solve a php mail problem. During that time, they did not respond to my inquiries and the pages that used php mail on my client's web site did not work. Their [...]

The reason why I rated this the lowest possible, is because of their Terms of services located at

How secure is their database.......I've been billed for something I didn't buy from them. I has previously bought 2 domains from Yahoo and then a couple of months later I'm getting billed for a hosting plan when I actually have my own dedicated server. This is ridiculous.

At least, Yahoo were pretty fast to correct the situation and did reimbursed the amount billed to my credit card. The same thing was different with www.1and1.com tho, they basically told me to fuck off. So I'm transfering [...]
