Server hosting - Who?

[Ed Jay]

I need to change server hosts.

'Green Geeks' and 'Inmotion Hosting' have each been recommended.

Does anyone have a comment or recommendation?

I've been with them for over a decade, and I'm supporting over a
half dozen domains there.
Highly recommended.

Thanks. I'll take a look.

Depends entirely on what you’re looking for in a provider. Cloud?
Shared? VPS? Dedicated?

A lot depends on your budget and technical abilities/needs, too.
There’s some super cheap stuff out there if you have a static site
that only needs to be served over IPv6! ;-)

Thanks, Doc. I'm looking for a reseller type (shared) host for several
personal sites and one or two business sites. I expect to pay between
$20 - $30.

Is that a monthly budget or a yearly one? Simple managed shared
hosting for unlimited domains (*not* actual white-label reselling) can
easily be found around the $10/month range. I used to use DreamHost
for that and they were pretty good.

But I’ve moved on to VPSes for most things because I have the
technical need and know-how to do things that a cookie-cutter provider
won’t offer. I was able to replace just about everything I was doing
on DreamHost with the $15/year plan from RamNode. I blogged about the
transition:

Hi, Ed, long time no speak :)

Years ago I went with VPS's. I had one which changed their software
such that my firewall didn't work any more. I went to Linode several
years ago and couldn't be happier.

A VPS isn't for everyone - but if that's what you would like, it's a
great buy with excellent support.

Thanks, but I'm not interested in a VPS for my application. Simple
reseller type account to host a dozen personal sites.
