I've used Liquid Web, Hivelocity, and Knownhost.
They are all US based hosting companies. The first two are big. KnownHost seems to be smaller, but they are just as good as the big boys.
I've been very happy since AndyB recommended them. Their support is out of Birmingham, Alabama and I think...
I'm using it on my forums as well as my Wordpress site. I'm using the ElasticPress plugin on Wordpress.
I also use the XFES add-on as well.
ElasticSearch works well on all of them. :-)
Speaking of statistics. I have a CloudFlare Pro plan and get some statistics information from that, but it is limited.
Does any one here use any statistics programs outside of CloudFlare and Google Analytics that you feel are good to help monitor the progress of your site?
When I used to use...
I'll throw out my $.02 for what it is worth.
I started with vBulletin in 2006 with my forum. It worked fine and I believe some of the developers here now were there at that time, too. I definitely remember seeing Kier's name way back then.

I hope that helps. :-)
I have been experiencing it as well. Straight in using Firefox and Internet provider. Used to come to Xenforo and not have to experience all of that. I think there are options in Cloudflare to set it to hours, days, or weeks for browser check. Maybe they could do it once a day instead of like...
I spoke to a representative at TinyCDN. I asked who the 3 CDN providers where and she said that they currently used Fastly and CloudFront. She said they had Stackpath in their network but they recently stopped their service, so they were down to 2 CDN providers.
She did admit they don't have a...
I usually check out every now and then the "visitors" on the forums and have found that some come from certain ISPs and providers. I have been pretty successful in using Cloudflare's rules to block them. I do the blocking by ASN.
Those that I've blocked are coming from Amazon, HighWinds Cloud...
I hear you. I use Cloudflare and like the actual service, BUT I hate their customer service which usually involves just them pasting and copying stuff from the docs without taking the time to break things down for some of us that aren't so technically learned. That, in addition, to closing...
