A comment on ‘99.9999%’ uptime – it’s an illusion.

However, there feels like exceptions - I’m on my 10th year of using Dreamhost. Here was my tweet to them:

“My 10th anniversary of using @DreamHost – hosting over 60 domains with zero downtime thus far. Can I just say it's one of the greatest tools in my life? Their site: bit.ly/2kl6Vr2“

Is it zero downtime? Probably not but my sites haven’t seen an outage that I recall. Amazing support too.

I have had downtime with their email on many occasions but never their web hosting.
