So it sounds like the best three options are (in no particular order): 1. Remain with Webfaction. 2. Move to Slicehost. 3. Move to a colocated server. Obviously this is something that will require discussion with my client, but I'm perfectly capable of managing a colocated server, so the main iss

I've been a Slicehost customer for about 3 months now, and will second the recommendation. Granted, I only run Django in FCGI mode with lighttpd on their 256 slice, but they've been extremely reliable, and it "just works." If I needed to host something larger, I'd definitely use them. The fact tha

If you can get to 25k / mo. uniques, you can host on Joyent for free (in exchange.. you give them your user's info). Sure, its a bit shady.. but if you need decent hosting on the cheap... -justin On Fri, Apr 25, 2008 at 11:44 AM, Josh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'm working on what will end u
