I immediately goggled for sites hosted on my server address and had a chat with my host. I asked the support guy how many sites are on my server? He said "I believe the rough estimate is about 300-400 accounts per server." I said "You mean you have a drive which has a capacity of 88TB" He said "No idea what the drive sizes are on the shared servers. We do oversell." I am pretty sure i would be switching hosts and bluefur is on my top list now :) Reading your post “hosts that lie”, i thought lets have a talk with my host.

That's actually more like the email you sent me. Regarding overselling, it's common for travel and hotels to oversell their services, on the basis that people won't show up. Is this a fault of the company, or is the company being smart by taking into account scheduling mishaps on the part of their users? On a business-related note, is it possible to load balance between two plans hosted on geographically disparate servers to provide for a modicum of failover hosting, now that that plan is no longer available?
