Being involved in a car accident is one of the scariest things that anyone can ever experience. While some are lucky enough to walk away from car accidents unscathed, many people end up suffering health problems, some of which can have lasting results.

2. By Combining Shared Web Hosting
Services You Can Get Extensive
Capabilities at a Very Low Cost

We recently ran across web hosting
resource problems on a client website.
p
The short version of this story is that we
combined the services of the two web
hosting companies H tG t and
h ti i HostGator d
Bluehost to provide a very robust
solution.

Bluehost hosts the email hosting
services.
After the change, system performance

went through the roof. With a bit of
tweaking, page load times went down

to less than one second (!) and the total
cost for hosting is now $11.34 per

4. The Problem: A Known iPhone IMAP
Problem Consumed All System
Resources, Took the Web Hosting
Down
Our clients 80+ field techs were
retrieving email with their iPhones and it
g
was consuming server resources so much
that it took their website(s) and email
down.

5. The problem is a known one with iOS-
based devices like the iPhone iPad and
iPhone,
iMac when IMAP is used for their email
p
protocol. IMAP allows emails to remain
on the server after you view them with a
mobile device. It is normal to use IMAP
for mobile phones. This problem we had
only occurs if you use push mail on an
iOS device which is enabled by default.

6. The Solution: Combine Web Hosting
Companies to Maximize Resource
Availability
A possible solution, but not so practical
solution
for this client, was to turn off push mail
which is described in this post:
p
http://iphonehowto.com/94/ios/turn-off-
push-mail-on-iphone/. The technicians
just
j t weren’t so tech-savvy and if only
’t t h d l
one of them did not change their settings
then the systems could go down againagain.

7.  The solution we chose was to combine the
web hosting services of HostGator and
Bluehost to stabilize the systems.
 Hostgator has basically unlimited web
g y
hosting with powerful servers, but they
have a limit of 25 processes which the
iPhone emails were maxing out. When a
i h il i h
Bluehost website exceeds their allotted
resources Bluehost puts them into time
out which seriously affects the websites
p
performance. Bluehost, however, has
essentially unlimited email resources that
don’t end at 25 processes.

8. Our solution of combining the two web
hosting companies stabilized our clients
systems. We ended up with page load
times under a second at a total monthlyy
cost of $11.34.

we used a powerful and free online web
