You are 110% correct.
The Nectartech datacenter is completely at fault here, NOT Godaddy.com. Any company that takes money from customers for hosting and has such a huge a single point of failure that depends on a 3rd party outsourced 2nd rate hosting company isnt a very good host. GoDaddy is good for personal pages and blogs NOT serious commerce or Professional level hosting.
What the heck kind of "Data Center" relies on godaddy for the domain? |

Read the thread, they did not host with godaddy! Godaddy was just their registrar who changed their nameservers on them to take them offline because of a abuse report but never verified the report.
From what I understand they host with multiple datacenters for redundancy.
To use an analogy, you bought your domain from godaddy but host your nameservers and web servers with rackspace. Your server gets compromised, you catch it after a few hours and fix it.
Two days later godaddy gets an abuse report and goes in and changes your nameserver records to point to something else to take you offline without checking to see if the issue was resolved. They do this on a friday without telling you and go home without any recourse for you to get it fixed until monday.
Is that clearer? |

And the mgt at godaddy should have made their abuse dept head available to resolve the issue, weekend or not. As head of the network engineers at my company, I was available 7/24 to data center mgt when problems occurred. -- -- Join Red Room Forum My Web Page |

What the issue is here is that the NectarTech datacenter has determined a sinle point of failure that relies on a 2nd rate hosting company is acceptable. |

And you keep ignoring the fact that godaddy was NOT the hosting company but the registrar and that the actions they took as registrar were completly outside normal business practices. And your logic was refuted multiple times in the webhosting thread as well. »webhostingtalk.com/showthread.ph···2&page=5 -- -- Join Red Room Forum My Web Page |

| reply to DA Hello!!! Hosting!!! Hosting is just that...Hosting... Godaddy was hosting all their domain records! That is why I said I would never host with GoDaddy. You just assumed since I mentioned family photos, hobby pages, etc. that I was referring to them hosting their site. If I did not listen to the .mp3 I would not have been able to make my previous post. You are forgiven though! Just don't let it happen again 
P.S. I have had parked domains at GoDaddy and their uptime seriously sucks Only a (edited) would host with Godaddy! |
