This is a stupid question but does anyone have an opinion you can back 
up with some logical reasoning.

Lewis,
 I am looking at digital ocean for doing some of our hosting.
May not be what your looking for though.

I recommend www.brownrice.com. My brothers hosting company. He has been in
business for 15 years and is really good at it.
Cheap and the support is top notch! Local and made in the USA and NOT some
corporate greedy company where you are just a number to them.

You should check out their reviews as a hosting provider compared to some

Re: [AFMUG] OT? AWS

[Travis Johnson]

I host many domains/websites/email accounts with GoDaddy some over 
10 years now... never had an outage that I know of. My only issue is 
with their "basic" domain email hosting, they do SPAM filtering on 
outgoing mail based on subject... so if you send an email with "Hello" 
as the subject, it never leaves their servers, and you are never 
notified they didn't deliver. They have an entire "blacklist" of key 
subject words, but they wouldn't provide it to me when I asked. Having 
outgoing email filtered is really lame. They already restrict the total 
number of SMTP connections per account per day, why do they also need to 
filter based on keywords?!?!

For static pages you can use aws s3. That is what I use for my website. The
cost for my two maybe less than 1$ per year.

This is a stupid question but does anyone have an opinion you can back up
with some logical reasoning.

They're not gonna offer anything different in that regard, you'd still 
have to manage the server (which it sounds like Lewis doesn't want to do.)

for all my SSL/domain hosting, and they've been good.

Not to get to close to what some of you still do for a livingbut I need a 
web host and I was thinking AWS. I don't know why I was thinking AWS but I was. 
I am setting up a static 6 page site and just need something simple I can ftp a 
site up to.

 

I know Paul i the resident AWS guru but I was wondering if there are opinions 
on the best way to go for this. I know how to run a Linux server, Apache, etc.

This is a stupid question but does anyone have an opinion you can back up with

[Josh Baird]

I would probably look at a web hosting company over something like AWS
unless you want to maintain the server your self.

Re: [AFMUG] OT? AWS

AWS is way overkill if you just want something you can FTP a static site 
up to. All you really need is a cheap webhosting provider.


I haven't used one in a very long time, but something like 
https://www.namecheap.com/hosting.aspx is probably fine.. I use 
Namecheap for all my SSL/domain hosting, and they've been good.
