Recently I visited webhostingtalk and there's some clients of Dathorn complaining about site been suspended. I understand resellers like to have a 'safe' business to avoid critical problems, and don't want to see their clients' site suspended.
In fact technically, it is easy to be safer using Dathorn's service.
Because Dathorn will only suspend the problematic account, so my suggestion is, to make your clients' sites safer, give them two accounts.
Someone will ask how could I give them two accounts? Most of clients have only one domain one site, one domain means one account, isn't it?
I surely tell you, you could give them two or more accounts even they have only one domain. Suppose your client's domain is: mydomain.com
You create two accounts for him,
first account: mydomain domain: mydomain.com
secondary account: mydomainbeta domain: beta.mydomain.com
You might be confused, how could I set a subdomain in the same hosting server? Truely yes, you can do that without any problem in Dathorn.
And then, you should tell your client, put all safe contents in main account, like static pages, images, common-in-use CGI programs(they're safe), of course another one important, their e-mail accounts. You client's main account will never be suspended (except your clients donot understand what's safe)
What's for secondary account? It's 'to be suspended'.
Of course, leave 'unsafe' contents especially some programs with database in beta or experimental, they could be safe, but even you tested in your own environment, their might also have problems (very) occasionally. We don't wish that happen of course, for each time when site suspended happens your other clients and neighbours in that server will be hurted (before Andrew suspend that account).
