now, my website just like haunted mansion. nearly no traffic
this is a mistake..
one day, i want install a chinese script.. i have a problem with the configuration and i give them a try to solve the problem.. maybe they dont know how to spell pinyin, and they simply said that it should be wrong password.. absolutely they wrong.. they dont ever try to install it.. i feel like geek of the answer
too low speed compared to my other website at other hosting company..
i cant serve some serious service, and sadly i have lost nearly all of my visitor because too many downtime, and many of them said my website are to hard to loaded..
and i worried the hosting company steal my sensitive informatin in my website
i just wonder myspace.com who owned by a man hosted somewhere and maintained by his girlfriend...
and yet wikipedia.org server also maintained by one person rather by hosting company.
how can they have such incredible speed? what the connection they use?

Hi,
As JLHC mentioned, those websites run on dedicated servers. If you are afraid of a web hosting company stealing your data, you might want to consider purchasing your own server, and colocating it at a data center. However, the next issue you will face is the security of your server.
If you do not want to get your own server, you can try VPS (virtual private servers / semi-dedicated servers) or Dedicated server. You will be given root access to the server. And you can check the log to see if anybody did try to access your server, even the webhost. However, do note that it is pretty costly compared to shared web hosting.
My advice, go for a VPS for a start, they start around 100RM i believe? I am not so sure with the Malaysia market price. You can get somewhere around 5GB to 50GB of space to start with. For VPS and dedicated servers, the bandwidth is normally not oversold as badly compared to shared hosting.
