well i bought a .in domain from rediff hosting
the registration and all done properly
but the problems started from there.

Frequently the registered domain cannot be accessed..
i linked the domain to my blog in blogspot.com
it worked but frequently it doesnt work when i type the domain name
ping also result in no response.
so did i set it up wrong..or it is their problems or google problem?

I have also using google apps linked to this domain to use the emails
when the site cannot be accessed the email service is still working

So knowledgeable people here..can you please tell me where the fault lies..haha

Anyway.one indeed shouldnt buy from them…not having a very good experience with them as of now

recently i have taken hosting plan from rediff well they are unprofessional service provider
even i had hosting plan with ewebguru which runs smoothly for last 2 years , lol was think for good provider and get fooled to taken two hosting plan from them for my two domains they specified wordpress support for bussiness plan ,
1 everything was normal even installed wordpress and my site runs well for a month then lastly the site was hacked its for all domains there i think all index pages are changed , even they did’t have any security , even they did’t take backups
2 when i tried to install again the issues comes fatal error:Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 58368 bytes
i mailed them then mail and mail lol this goes on for last 45 days still i mailed to them to ensure wordpress installation or refund my money back else lastly i have to go consumer court well this time i made my mind as they kills my business to much extent.

i prefer never take any hosting plan from them they have name only badest service provider . i have better experinaces with ewebguru yet atleast my site running without any issue for last two years.

I purcased two domains from rediff. After about six months I needed to change the address details of the whois records of one of my domains. I logged on to control panel and changed my address. But when I press “apply changes” the address reverts back to old address. When I contacted them through email (ofcourse the 2 day loop) they said that I will receive a confirmation from Network Solutions. However I did not receive any. Then the email exchanges between me and customer support went on for about two months (2 day loops included). The first day of the third month they ask me “Thank you for communicating with us. My name is **** and how can I help you.
Moral of the story: There is no such thing as Rediff Customer Support.

domain name registration is such process which has to be done as early as possible. if your domain name is good one then by the time rediff registers it for you some other guy may register for himself.

and one more point is their control panel SUCKS!!

in their faq’s they says that click on “add new recored”(for CNAME/MX etc) .. to my surprise there is no “ADD” button in that page there is only “edit” option for editing existing record…

- there is no clock my domain option.
- they charge for private who-is, while all most all registrars give it for free…
- when i paid them thrugh ICICI internet banking , for them it took 2 days to reeve my money
- even in your domain name control panel they market their rediffpro product.
- their control panel wont allow you to add “DNS records” as you wish.

Now i am worried about my domain name, i have to transfer it to some other registrar as soon as possible, any one knows how is indialinks.com or domainsrs.com?

and also suggest me the best possible domain registrar in India(i dont have CC , i can pay by net banking) for personal & reselling(for my clients) needs

I too faced similar problems with rediff domain services. Decided to write a summary about this on my blog – http://thinkapi.com/blog/rediff-business-solutions-rediff-hosting-review/ as a form of review.

I can understand how you feel Chandra. I would suggest Godaddy for domains and Hostmonster/hostgator for hosting. They are not based in India, but they have no support problems and I have been using them for 3+ years now.

I am also facing lot of problems with rediff, They are wasting our time and money. Their service is very poor and I get a feeling that, REDIFF will be closed soon… IF they go ahead like this, they will not survive….
I am moving to Yahoo India… They seems to be better and Cheaper…
