We are currently implementing new servers and will begin offering new customers service by the end of the year if our plans go well.

To determine which server is closest to you, please ping the following addresses

east.lvcs.net    (Eastern US for east coast USA and Canadian users)
eu.lvcs.net       (Netherlands for EU region clients)
west.lvcs.net   (Arizona for west coast USA users and AP)

**If the "west" server has slower times for enough people, we may replace that machine with another in Los Angeles.

**** Please send your request to migrate to helpdesk at freepgs dot com ****

Can you tell who voted for what or do we need to tell you too?  I voted east.

admin

The voting is just for us to get a proper sampling of where most of our users are so we know where to spend money in future upgrades.

You will need to send us your choice to plesk at lvcs dot net and we will start your migration.

You will need to point your real domain to ns1.east.lvcs.net, ns2.east.lvcs.net via your domain registrar if you still use it.  Your FreePgs URL will point to the new server within an hour.

EU for me please :)

Please send an email to helpdesk at freepgs dot com with your request.  These forum accounts are not tied directly to user accounts.

Be sure to include the current server you are on and your username.

Oddly, I am on the west coast but the east server pinged back the faster time, so I'm not sure which one I should choose.

admin

That would be very strange, but possible depending on your ISP and routing.

The west server is located in Scottsdale, AZ.

The East server is more powerful and has more memory compared to West, so if these are close, you should choose East.
