Re: [wdvltalk] Changing Hosting Provider
We jut left GoDaddy after just two bery bad months with them. If you want a shared account, I suspect you'll be fine, but our virtual dedicated server experience was a nightmare!

Re:[wdvltalk] Changing Hosting Provider
I've used GoDaddy for our family's website for a couple of years now and have been completely happy with them. I don't build a lot of webs for other people but would host them with GoDaddy without a second thought.

Re: [wdvltalk] Changing Hosting Provider
I absolutely love dreamhost.com. I've been through my fair share of hosting
companies and they are the best by far. Before you buy anything, google for
their discount codes. You can save up to $90-something if you have the codes.

Subject: [wdvltalk] Changing Hosting Provider
Hi folks,
I am unhappy with my current hosts, they let me down far too often in terms
of downtime, error/problems, prompt customer support, etc.
I have around 25 websites for various clients who host through me.
Hopefully more in the future.
Who do you recommend?
I am looking at GoDaddy - what are people's experiences with them? Should I
purchase their reseller's package or is that overkill? Should I look at the
virtual dedicated server option? It seems good value, but I have no
interest in maintaining a server myself.
I'm not looking forward to the headaches of moving, but I have to make the
move, even if I do it gradually. Obviously I don't really want to be paying
full fare at both.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Re: [wdvltalk] Changing Hosting Provider
Don't bother with the dedicated server option as Mark's already said - if you don't support it yourself it'll cost a fortune. I personally would recommend 34sp.com despite the little niggle I had with them recently. Have a look at their reseller package and see what you think. As I'm based in the UK I've yet to find anybody that can touch these guys for reliability and cost. MOU ___ All new Yahoo!
