HelioHost Posted July 6, 2017 Posted July 6, 2017 As you may have noticed, we have been the target of several DDoS attacks over the last couple days. If you're concerned about the uptime of your websites we recommend setting up cloudflare on your domains. This will help keep your static resources online during an attack. If you're the one responsible for the attacks just know that we're willing to talk to you. If there is a site that we host who has upset there is a chance that they have violated our terms of service and we could simply suspend the one account instead of taking down thousands of websites. One DDoS attack we endured was because his website was suspended automatically by our server for causing high load. Once we explained that to him and showed him how to edit his code to reduce load everyone was happy. All of our servers, with the exception of Ricky who is down for maintenance, are now back online and fully functional. Thanks for your patience during this unexpected downtime.
