I'm Lookin' for a new webhost baby...

Post by smoth »

*80s reference....

anyway, ok so I am looking for a new host(can't use my school site forever, even though I have that permission). The issue I am having is that I am not sure who is a good hosting company for a site with the US.

I only really need the host to be decent, fairly quick, with some space you know a few (3-10) gigs, with possible upgrade plans if I need more space and most importantly full support for phpbb3. I need it to be fairly quick and reliable so I can centralize many of the community resources and to make sure we do not have another UF explosion I plan on paying for several years up front. So I don't want it to be ridiculous in cost.

Please do not offer to host my site, I have done that before and http://www.crystalfactor.org/smoth no longer exists, and damnit I had cool maps there.

So any suggestions?

Cloud9 might be worth a look. Stay away from servage and dreamhost and those other fantastically oversold services.

I've been on StartLogic for years. Good price, lots of fancy back end tools that I never use, but are certainly available... and I have yet to have serious problems reaching their tech support, or getting a problem resolved. Good service, and I really like their site-management tools.
