Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Grandwarrior Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 I have been heavily hit with a DDOS and I need a good host who can take . Knownhost just nulled my ip and wont even attempt to do anything.
Makoto Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Knownhost just nulled my ip and wont even attempt to do anything.As far as suggesting hosts goes, we can't. It's against forum policy to discuss or recommend other hosting providers here, sorry.
ADKGamers Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Unfortunately that's what most companies do during things like that. They attempt to block the issue first and if that doesn't work then they null the ip until the attacks have subsided. If you want a company that has DDOS protection you're going to have to have to spend a little more for that protection.
Makoto Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Oh. "Nulled my IP", I completely read that wrong.Also, for powerful DDoS protection, you're probably going to be spending a little more than just a "little more," those types of services can get very pricey very quick.
Ichirō Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 I have been heavily hit with a DDOS and I need a good host who can take . Knownhost just nulled my ip and wont even attempt to do anything. Speak to these guys, they should be able to help you out.http://www.r00t-services.net/
p4guru Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Usual list of reputable DDOS providers depending on your budget http://www.blacklotus.net/ https://www.staminus.net/ https://incloudibly.com/ proxies - need business or enterprise plans for these http://www.incapsula.com/ http://www.cloudflare.com/
xbp-tpn Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Contact blacklotus or staminus if its a massive DDOS attack, otherwise contact incloudibly or awknet. The latter two provide relatively cheap but good DDos protection against small to medium attacks. But if you want a solid server, excellent support and true DDoS protection then you wont find it anywhere but BlackLotus and Staminus. EDIT: And you cant really blame knownhost for nulling your ip. They do not provide DDoS protection and if the DDos attack is large, they have every right to protect their network. DDoS attacks are expensive and hosts have to pay for the bandwidth costs that a DDoS imposes on them. It only makes sense that they would rather null your IP then incur a loss of thousands of dollars.

MarcusH Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Site I run gets attacked a lot, we had Cloudflare pro($20 per month), and that stopped almost all attacks until, the attacks got to big for Cloudflare Pro, so we had no choice but to upgrade to CloudFlare Business ($200 Per Month). So far everything has been perfect and no issues to report.
Grandwarrior Posted July 9, 2013 Author Posted July 9, 2013 thank you every one for the info. I think iwill be going with Black lotus with a little bit more of looking into them
Makoto Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 Yeah, like I said. I feel sorry for anyone that has to deal with this stuff on a constant basis.
Grandwarrior Posted July 10, 2013 Author Posted July 10, 2013 Yeah it just sucks so bad cause my website is only a month old. but its a diablo 2 fan based website and theres a lot of sites out there that dont like competetion so they ddos any threats. I just wasnt expecting it so early :/ on top of that I ony put away neough money for a cheap host for new sites lol. So website gonna be down until my rig goes back up. this is practically gonna ruin my website business cuz i was getting insane traffic and making money
Zhana Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 I doubt it's a DDoS attack on a site that is only a month old. Maybe a misconfiguration, seo issue, or some other site getting DDoS'ed on your shared server. I would recommend that you upgrade from shared hosting to VPS, see if that solves the issue, if not then I would spend money on hiring a good server admin to check any config issues.
Dmacleo Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 its not on shared hosting, its a managed dedicated, and its been verified to be ddos.

Grandwarrior Posted July 26, 2013 Author Posted July 26, 2013 I have went over to temporary host, third party ddos (Cloudflare). but finding somthing nicer would be good
