Does NexusBytes shared web hosting worth it?
Hello,
i've 3 questions.
- I've seen they provide SLA 99.9% even for shared web hosting?
- How's your experience with NexusBytes shared web hosting (or resseller web hosting) so far?
- Since Softaculous can setup Virtualizor Master and Blesta, is it a good idea to start with that? (i've started to setup it to try on a VPS, but now i feel like it could be less maintenance for updates etc if i go with shared hosting)
Thank you!

Nexusbytes is really worth the price.
@seriesn is a great guy and the company is great.
You'll great great speeds and performance.
You may pm @seriesn if you want a custom deal and he just might help you.
+1 @seriesn shared and vps hosting
@seriesn is prem, and so is NexusBytes.
Well the header of Blesta documentation said this:
And the script exists also in their db.
That's why my question. Beside that i totally get your point about separated hosting to be assured no conflict between Blesta and Virtualizor. I've already installed Virtualizor Master on a VPS few days ago to try it out and understood there is some heave stuffs that requires an independant setup to work correctly. Also im affraid that using Virtualizor Master from a Softaculous installer may end in other "special" issues just because it's not on a dedicated environment...
Thank you for your answer @ViridWeb , you are always here to help and answer the best you can and i truely appreciate to read you.
. You guys are prem .
Hello Sir, thank you for reconsidering us . Maybe one day, I will be able to guarantee 99.99% . Our only downtime so far has been due to scheduled maintenance
Blesta can be installed via softaculous. Virtualizor, you will need a bare bone VPS for that, softaculous won't install it for you
Is it still 99.9% or there is no SLA on web offers?
Oh yeah true! I haven't checked correctly just because i've seen Virtualizor in the front page of Softaculous... They should not do that xD!
@seriesn i would like to know: what is 100% CPU limit on the offer? Are we allowed to use 100% of a thread for the time we want or is it a fair share with burst allowed for 10 mins for example? I only know BuyShared in shared web experience and it was not good, imho, for critical operations. I would like to keep my billing panel the most possible online.
On other side i have to think about Blesta licence. If i go with web shared and NexusBytes i will have to take a VPS from NexusBytes on the side to get Blesta licence for free (probably since it's still NexusBytes network i'm allowed to use it on web shared hosting? Anyway for Virtualizor i need a VPS).
Hiya,
99.9% uptime SLA applies to all our products .
Fair share CPU. Basically don't abuse it 24/7 . But at the same time, these nodes are not overlaoded. With that said, it you could pm me what you didn't like about buyshared (fran runs a good show)
Blesta/VPS Etc. I mean, we also have a pretty decent reseller plan :P
He is already aware. I love BuyShared, honestly for the price and quality it's hard to complain. My issue is just that i get around 98% uptime on my websites in LU (XenForo and WP, ~200 unique visitors / day) and 99% on LV (wordpress only). 99% is not bad for LV but i need to be on NYC for my project and i would like to avoid downtime few nights a week even for 1 min i experience with BuyShared. I try to see my main website as a critical website, and i will try to see the same way for all my services (well after, as you already know with your experience i'm pretty sure, expectation is always different from reality).
What you mean? Is Blesta included with reseller? In Family Perks page i've read Blesta licence are offered with VPS, and i wonder if i can rent you a VPS and use the Blesta licence on your web shared.
Edit: Yeah i've just seen Blesta is included ahah! You may update your family perks page, free Blesta was only in VPS section.
Are web shared ips dedicated? Are you well protected agsint DDoS (one known issue on BuyShared)?
Thanks for all your answer. I believe i will be able to join the family ahah, i really want but everytime there is something where i'm like... "Finally i will stay with BuyVM". I don't know if it's the "12h delivery" (even if i know you handle orders way faster than that), or because Stallion is fuckn awesome, or because i just never tried your service, or if it's because you provide a less generous fair share for smaller VPS or if it's i haven't read anything about live snapshots/backups (but there is a NAT backup VPS), or if it's because there is too much addons, etc. I'm not sure, i know you are powerful too i've just some doubts everytime i'm one click away to pay...
WP is a pain in the ass for almost any shared host. Disabling heartbeat and tweaking rss usually helps a bit. But depending on your plugin plus how heavy the theme is, it can vary.
I think it says reseller too . As long as you use it within our network, I could care less either you use it on shared or VPS servers .
No dedicated IP. Basic DDOS protection is included with all our plans and services. We are not known to be bulletproof comparing to the big boss .
We are just like cars, Nissan, Toyota, Honda. All of them will take you from point A to point B, almost at similar speed. Only difference is your personal preference and choice of design haha.
Setup time for is a generic mesage for the odd hours (need to sleep too right? ). During regular business hours, it is usually done within an hour or 2 .
So one may wonder, why we don't offer snapshot or something similar. Our vision has always been, it is your service, it is your server. So it is your call on how you want it to be managed and protected. Offsite NAT becomes a disaster proof solution, in the event where if the main node goes down, it might be faster to spin up a new server and let you restore your backup at your own pace vs us doing it one by one, at a time, thus making you wait longer. Many free and paid solution exists, that will do all the fancy things you want, when it comes to taking snapshot.
I respect and admire Frans product line, because he is awesome and a super cool person to work with. Runs a nice business that many of can only dream about. We will never think of ourself as a direct competition to his service.
But we have our tiny things here and there with the family perks and adding more as we grow . Cutting down on promo actually clears up the budget for offering more goodies to everyone
True! I use Elementor and 2 or 3 other plugins. I don't like heavy stuffs... I also use LSCache and CloudFlare in front.
Yeah i've seen that in the order form. In your Family Perks doc it's wrote only in VPS section that's why i was confused (or maybe i didn't read it correctly, it's possible too).
Honestly i'm more into Audi, BMW, Mercedes !
Why is this process not automatic? Why not automatize this process for known and trusty customets (like adding a flag "premium customer" or something like that)?
I think a common issue with lots of providers is that they grow to fast and haven't enough time to think "as a customer". So they just rush with the amount of orders (often related to their promo) and miss all important things, including quality. NexusBytes looks more customer oriented, and i feel like you work hard with your team to keep that, to also make the difference in a way you are still defining.
You are in the wrong forum
Because I use a cookie cutter setup with WHMCs and virtualizor, both of which doesn't allow me to do certain things as I want them to .
Some of the products needs manual provisioning (resource upgrade for annual signups, block storage etc). Trust me sir, it would free up good couple of hours of my day. But, so far everything I tried to do to automate it, ended up causing extra work, instead of saving time
Nexus Bytes is built with customer first mentality . Which is also easy to do, as a small provider and privately owned business. End of the day, I am also a consumer myself haha.
I am just a regular guy, who takes care of his family and working hard to build a good brand, that will help me retire from my day job and allow me to live in a nice quiet place .
Alright all good for me, will give it a try then . Risk 0 is not possible for the price range i would like to start then it's normal to try something new, and i feel NexusBytes will be a good fit for parts of my project.
I've already got my reseller web shared delivered (took only few minutes!) and it's my first time on DirectAdmin (i'm used to cPanel, DirectAdmin looks way more apealing tho!).
Thanks all for your answers, thanks a lot @seriesn for your personal support on my thread . Happy to finally take part of NexusBytes family!
Ok so you are talking about installing Blesta directly from Softaculous auto installer, Then it's fine and they have Blesta listed as you mentioned above.
If you want to provide shared hosting then a resller hosting is suitable for that. Most of us including NexusBytes, Buyshared or even we provide Blesta for free for billing solution.
Or you can just get a VPS and install Directadmin on it to get more control. Note: Directadmin requires more work specially from SSH.
If you want to start VPS hosting then get a small vps for master and Dedicated for slave as I alreay said.
Good Luck..
It's just me thing.
But I never use any hosts that's advertised here.
The only exceptions are -
Those don't really try to advertise here. Any hosts that try hard to advertise here aren't worth it.
For Virtualizor it's totally the way i'm going on.
For Blesta and WordPress i think web shared will be a good fit for this if there is great SLA provided ^^.
Oh even BuyVM or RamNode ? There is few hosts here who are really amazing!
Edited my post to add exceptions.
Yes that's a good decision. Good luck..
No he is using Godaddy. I saw his name on that stolen Database
Welcome to the family .
Will donating a new scythe change your mind? Ever? Or the end is Neigh?
Don't worry. If your company grows big enough and survive, you will stop wanting customers from LET.
@seriesn Ryzen cores on your shared hosting offering?
Yes Boss.
