DataKL Rocks!!
I just transfered myself from my previous free host to a paid local hosting company. After searching around for webhosting, I found DataKL and decided to host with them. And guess what? I bought a hosting from them because I thought it’s cheap. And I didn’t even consider how good is their uptime and support. Fortunately, they are bunch of good guys. Support has been speedy and friendly so far. Uptime, as claimed by them is 99.5% in the period of 3 months. I believe it’s quite reasonable.
Why Change?
I have been a cheapskate for too long. I believe it’s time for me to move along to serve myself and my readers better. Since most of my readers are from Malaysia, I believe changing to a local host is a good choice. Speed is great, and to compare with my previous US free host, it’s way faster 
This is what I want, and this is also what I want my readers to enjoy 
Comparison??
Of course, before I decide to host with DataKL, I did survey around for hosting. I did consider Exabytes and IPServerone, but both of them is so expensive. All of their hosting plans are over RM100. Overbudget la.. I did consider Hive Hosting too, since it’s from Sarawak. Just search for “hive” in WebHostingTalk, you’ll be surprised with the complains.
There are other web hosting that is within my budget, but their space and bandwidth allocation is too little. See? I am such a cheap skate. But fortunately, DataKL provide a special plan, which is cheap and has reasonable space and bandwidth. I quickly signup with them since the offer is limited to 150 accounts only.
Conclusion
Speedy and friendly support is what people wants. And it would be better if support is available through Instant Messenger like MSN or Y!M. Support would be even faster that way. So here it is, free advertisement to you people since you all are doing a great job. Keep up the good work 
Updates: Lately my Wordpress is double pinging PPS and BlogMalaysia. I wonder what is wrong with my Wordpress installation? I will look through my wordpress and see if there’s anything wrong with it.

Hello mate,
Just thought to ask ya… how did you change your settings in your domain manager when transferring host? Is it as simple as changing its DNS to the new server and you will be able to log into the CPanel of the new server?
I’ve currently got a paid hosting with Hive, I’ve decided to let Hive manage the domain (mrdefinite.com) but with its server changed to another hosting company.
And I’ve got another domain without host–withkenneth.com–which redirects to mrdefinite.com at the moment.
If let’s say I point the DNS of withkenneth.com to Hive’s server (the one mrdefinite.com was pointing before transfer) after I’ve transfered mrdefinite.com’s server to another company, do you think I am able to log into the CPanel for both domains?
Is it supposed to be done like that?
Thanks a lot!

Just login to your domain’s control panel and change its nameserver to your new web hosting’s nameserver. Wait around 15-30 minutes, then your domain should point to your new server.
