Re: ColdFusion Hosts
I've been spoiled by GoDaddy. I've been developing ASP sites for 6 years and have been hosting with GoDaddy for 4. Their customer support have only let me down once. Their plans are amazing - practically unlimited (150gb space, 1.51b transfer, unlimited domains...) for $60/yr. I'll never need any more than that. And my sites are always up. One site has revenue of about $30,000/mo..another site gets about $10,000/mo. Visits are between 20K and 50K. They run fine. And almost all of my sites (including these) are using MSAccess. I just thought I'd throw that out there. However, I haven't heard one good thing about their CF hosting. Plus, they still only offer 7 and they have been saying for a year that they are upgrading to 8. So, definitely not at the top of their priorities. As a result of the economy, I was forced to go out job hunting last year. I found a company about 2 hours away that was willing to allow me to telecommute. All their sites were in CF. I was always attracted to CF, but never took the time to learn it. The job is a subcontract job and not full time, but it has allowed me to learn it a little while getting paid. I like the company, but they don't have a control panel or any kind of web-based admin, are still on CF7 and don't have any options besides Access. Because even though I haven't had problems with Access, I'd like to get some more experience with MySQL or even MSSQL. Anyway, this post is getting too long, so I'll just get to the point. Ray Camden has an ad for SoZo Hosting. Their shared plans look decent. I'm guessing this is where Ray's sites are hosted. Any reviews? I looked into Daily Razor and their shared plans are also attractive. But some reviews I've found are pretty bad. Any reviews from the list? I guess I'm looking for a reliable host whose shared plans allow multiple domains, offer CF8 and MySql for $20 or $30/mo and could easily upgrade my account to a VPS or dedicated if necessary. If you're still reading this, thank you. I tend to write a lot sometimes. I was thinking about putting this in the newbie list, but a post was already started here. Thanks! I am trying to find a decent CF8 hosting company that offers SQL Server. The company I am working with now (remotely) does not have a dev server, so I am looking for something that is going to have very little traffic, simply just allowing him to review.

Re: ColdFusion Hosts
AHPHosting.net rocks too...I have been with them for a couple of years and have only had one issue with them that was caused by a third party vendor. They resolved the issue pretty fast considering the scope of what happened. I would highly recommend them. Greg does an awesome job.

Re: ColdFusion Hosts
If you have a high speed connection you can always poke a hole in your routers fire wall, forward the port to your dev box and host it at home. If you do it that way you can use use Dynamic DNS in lieu of an IP (dyndns.orgis good). Most routers I have seen lately have a Dynamic DNS update client built in. HTH G!

I have three CF servers with Enterhost. The price is right for collecting all your work onto one box and setting up as many dev sites as you need. Comes w/ SQL Server and all the SmarterTools you could want. They also have decent individual site packages.
