WordPress Botnet Attack

novella — Sun, 14 Apr 2013 22:03:06 +0000

We are seeing increased traffic to a large number of WordPress sites on our shared hosting platform. The attack is not unique to ourselves and is affecting many hosting providers worldwide. Many providers have blocked access to the Admin area of WordPress altogether, however we do not want to take this approach as it will also prevent you from administering your own website. Instead, when accessing your WordPress Admin Area you may find that you are prompted for a username and password not previously required. The credentials for this login are:

Username: protected
Password: wordpress

As soon as normal service is resumed, this prompt will be removed and the above credentials will no longer be required. We appreciate your patience during this time, and we will update this page once this has been resolved.

New partnership with Neuber Web Solutions

novella — Sat, 01 Jan 2011 19:21:30 +0000

I am delighted to announce a new partnership with Neuber Web Solutions, which means we will be working closely with them to provide top spec hosting to all their clients.

Neuber Web Solutions are known best for their extensive contribution to the WordPress theme marketplace, with their custom e-commerce web solutions, that allow any keen entrepeneur to sell products online.

Reasons why Novella Hosting was chosen:

The Neuber & Neuber GbR has established a new partnership with the UK based hosting provider Novella.

Extend of Corporation:

Novella Hosting provides high quality webspace and worldwide unique set-up services for our WordPress E-Commerce themes. Based on this fact we will exclusively recommend Novella hosting services to our theme buyers.

Reasons for this decision:

We’ve noticed that some of our buyers, who purchased our WordPress E-Commerce themes tried to run their new web shops on low quality hosting packages. Unfortunately this led to support tickets and often to moving of newly completed websites to a better host (which in itself carries the danger to break it) – not too mention needless waste of time and stress.

To prevent this avoidable trouble right from the beginning we inquired Novella hosting to setup fitting hosting packages. Very important for us was the requirement of allocating a generous PHP memory limit of 128M.

In fact Novella Hosting went a step further and also offers packages in which WordPress and our E-Commerce themes are already setup for the client. This is a uniquely offered hosting feature worldwide.
