Host Monster

I recently sign up an account in host monster. It turn out their service is not as good as described in most of the reviews. I doubt they just pay for the bloggers to write good review for their hosting. It is extremely slow and excepted when loading the wordpress web site. I encountered server time out twice in 2 weeks when working on my web site. It web site took too long to respond. Then I checked the server status, it just said:

Server Load:
2009-05-18 20:49:15: Box under heavy load -- you may experience degraded system performance Services:
2009-05-18 20:49:15: Our technician is currently investigating a server problem. The source of this problem is unknown at this time. The duration of assessing this is approximately 15 to 45 minutes.
For more information you may search the knowledgebase at http://HELPDESK.HOSTMONSTER.COM for the words 'Investigating Performance'

I remembered I chat with the technician the day before, I asked him why their server so slow, he answered the share server is like that, depends on geographical location and server load. if they find out anyone who makes the server overloaded, the person will be banned!
