I switched from IXWebhosting due do server outages and went to 1and1. It was like going from the frying pan into the fire. It has taken me weeks of late nights to transfer my 13 hosted sites. Today I got all the kinks out of a site and tested it thoroughly - perfect. Then installed an audio player plugin and now I get 404 errors on every page except my front page. Deactivated the plugin and the whole site is cranked up - again. From reading other WP bloggers' comments, it apparently has to do with a memory limit on running php scripts. I am sorry I ever went with 1and1 and would advise ANY serious blogger to avoid them like the plague - especially if you don't speak fluent Punjab. It's REALLY not worth the few bucks in savings.

Only then you realise they have a rather inadequate customer service department and technical support... don't get me started. 1and1 are fine until something goes wrong.
