Greetings,
Maybe it's not right a hosting provider from the list to take part in the discussions here, and we will definitely not submit the poll
Still, if the moderator considers our post inappropriate, please remove it.
There are two points in the discussion that we would like to clear out:
I am not sure I understand why they limit crons... :/
We do limit crons on shared servers to three, in a 15-minute interval, and this is done simply for stability reasons. If all users can run a large number of one-minute cron jobs, this would be a risk for higher server loads and server instability. Stability and performance are of course top concerns. We prefer to set rules, as clear as possible, so that customers are aware what to expect even before signing up.
My biggest beef with ICD is their lack of domain privacy. I was going to switch the domain to another registrar this year but got sidetracked until too late. Maybe next year.
We do offer domain privacy for all TLDs that allow it, and it is completely free with each domain registration. For example, .us domains are not allowed to be private, but .com/.net/.org/.info do allow domain privacy.
Actually, with the implementation of the European GDPR by most domain registrars, the WHOIS privacy service has lost its importance. Our domain registrar (Enom) hide domain WHOIS contacts from the public by default. However, there is a feature called "gated WHOIS" that is to be implemented in the near future. Our domain privacy feature would actually remove customer data from this gated WHOIS, so that even Enom do not have access to the data of our customers.
So WeatherHost, you can just contact our support service to inquire regarding domain privacy.
Best to all,
Zafir
