As many of you may know, Endurance International Group (EIG) is the parent company for some very large web hosting companies. (HostGator, Arvixe, iPage, etc). The problem is, that have a very long standing track record of buying very popular web hosting companies, and making changes to increase their profits. Most of the time, these increased profits come from overloading servers, cutting support staff, and raising prices.

Take Arvixe for example. They have been a quality host for many years. A couple months ago EIG started moving their customers to their own data center, fired almost all the support staff. The last I heard, they average 5,700 tickets in the queue and a 7 day response time... all to increase their profits

Now, EIG has purchased Constant Contact
