Here is why GoDaddy sucks in hosting, what about alternative?
Hosting my wordpress blog in GoDaddy was a big mistake, I realized this when one of my regular visitor alerted me that my blog is having suspicious activity. I promptly downloaded all of my blog files in my local system to scan and that operation took around 2 hours because of terrible FTP download rate from GoDaddy. Upon looking inside the files, almost all php files were having suspicious code and certainly infected by some malware. I did a clean of each and every file including database scan for any malicious records, users etc (referred this while cleaning). Uploaded all new files by replacing existing completely. I checked my logs and thought for a while about why such thing happened. My wordpress version was latest, strong FTP password and in fact no regular FTP activities from my side. I’ve Mac for myself. So I didnt’ found any reason and forgot that incident.
