[Mono-list] .NET Hosting Suggestions?
Not sure how off-topic this is for this group, but I'll ask anyway just incase... Can anyone recommend a good (and low-priced, if possible) web host for hosting .NET web applications? I ask because my friend and I have been working on and testing a site as part of a small business endeavor. We're going to host it 100% ourselves eventually, but need to kick-start the income a bit in order to budget a production-class web server and commercial internet connection. So what we need is a host where we can run our .NET website (which, in and of itself, is pretty simple), a database for it to reference where we can, of course, have control over our tables (MySQL would be preferred, but not entirely necessary), and be able to use an outbound SMTP service to go along with .NET's Mail object in the code (a minor concern, but necessary for the site to do its stuff). Ideally, we'd want something more geared towards geeks, where we can keep the whole thing simple and avoid all the marketing speak. I've never actually used 3rd party hosting before, so I honestly don't even know where to look. Of course, Google searches for things like .NET web hosting return about half the internet. And I'd much rather have a first-hand account of someone who's been happy with a particular one, for whatever reasons. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you. -David P.

Re: [Mono-list] .NET Hosting Suggestions?
I like DailyRazor. http://www.dailyrazor.com/ Plesk is the admin tool I use to configure my sites. Their service is responsive and usually gets it right the first time. I had just one problem with changing my billing from qtrly to annual. I tried using Click on Hosting. Their service was the worst I have ever experienced. I paid for a full yr with them and left after 2 months. I didnt even bother trying to get a refund. Matt David P.
