Looking for a friendly, sane alternative to Crazy Domains?

Struggling with unsatisfactory support or hidden fees from your current hosting provider? You’re not alone. There are many Crazy Domains customers out there finding themselves stuck in a cycle of disappointing support with long wait times, and dealing with unexpected price hikes that catch you off guard when you least expect it.

If that sounds familiar it might be time to explore better options.

Crazy Domains left you waiting?

The stories we’ve heard from Crazy Domains customers include experiences where domains take ages to be activated, adding unneeded stress while websites and other online services aren’t working. Website and email migrations can go off the rails and take a long time to be put right. We especially heard a lot about these problems when Dreamscape bought Freeparking and migrated all their customers over to Crazy Domains.

Whatever the issue, the pattern seems to be that getting things fixed is harder than it should be. Even when their support does respond, they’re often unwilling or unable to offer any help or accountability.

And sometimes their solution involves attempting to upsell you on bigger and more expensive plans.

You might wonder how this can happen, especially when Crazy Domains promises 24/7 support. That's because Crazy Domains 24/7 access to support is primarily with lower-tier agents. This means that basic inquiries are handled quickly, but more complex issues are not.

Double check what’s in your cart

Frustration with Crazy Domains extends beyond customer service concerns. They’ve also got some deceptive “dark pattern” designs deeply integrated into their checkout process.

First off, they sell bundles of low-value services that they claim are “important features” you never knew you needed until now. As the customer, it’s not your job to know everything about domains and hosting—Crazy Domains tries to exploit that knowledge-gap.

Another trick involves sneakily putting things in your shopping cart when you try to buy a hosting package or grab a domain from Crazy Domains. These items are often aggressively priced so you don’t notice their impact on the overall cart price. But they come with sneaky auto-renewals attached, which you’ll pay for a year later.

These items aren’t landing in your cart accidentally—Crazy Domains is employing a deceptive e-commerce trick known commonly as basket-sneaking. We’ve explained how HostGator uses that exact basket-sneaking tactic, which isn’t surprising considering HostGator is owned and operated by Newfold Digital (a subsidiary of Dreamscape), the same multi-national company who owns and runs hosting providers like Crazy Domains and Bluehost.

So, are you ready to move on from being treated as an afterthought?

Crazy Domains and MyHost are worlds apart

Choosing a domain and hosting provider can be a big decision. Features such as price, support, and reliability all matter. But when you’re dealing with a provider who doesn’t take your needs seriously, everything else becomes secondary.

Australian customers shouldn’t have to settle for poor service and big prices. Unfortunately, it’s something that happens too often with international companies that lack a genuine understanding of the Australian market and do not value you. While MyHost and Crazy Domains offer similar services, the experience you get with each couldn’t be more different. Let’s break down exactly why MyHost is the smarter choice for Australians:

• The backbone of our value is the 24/7 expert support we offer. That is why expert engineers are always available to all MyHost customers, and are more than capable of handling a wide range of issues. So, every interaction you have with us is genuine and a helpful one.
• We believe in clear, honest pricing with no tricks or unexpected charges. You’re not going to get any of those nasty surprises at MyHost. The prices on our website exclude GST, and other than tax we don't lump on any sneaky extras or "upgrades" in the checkout. What you see is what you pay - simple as that. Our renewal prices are fair and transparent too, so you won’t get caught off guard by unexpected price jumps.
• We’re proudly independently owned. Our servers are right here in Australia, ensuring fast, reliable performance for local businesses. Plus, we're still owned by our original founders, not private equity giants, so our focus stays where it should be: on delivering the best hosting and support for you.
• With MyHost you get unlimited high speed storage space for your website, giving you the flexibility to grow your website without restrictions.

Numbers and features tell one story, but real customer experiences tell another.

Here's how it feels when your hosting company cares about you

To quote our own customers, here are some of the impressions MyHost has left on people:

A very pleasant experience with my first time delving into WordPress. Response time to questions to my host support was very fast and helpful. Installation was straightforward as it should be. Great job MyHost. Thank you very much.

I patronised more than a dozen web hosts during my career, and I would say MyHost has one of the best support services that I have encountered. I've been with them for seven years, and I've been a very satisfied customer. Highly recommended!

I was forced by regulation to move my website hosting company to MyHost in 2024. Although it was nothing to do with me at all, it was the best move I ever made! I am very impressed with their professional, friendly and helpful approach to small operators like me .... I can't recommend them highly enough!
