We also use webfaction because of a recommendation from someone on this list. They are not the cheapest, but they are fast, reliable and always available. It is easy to get around on their web site. They do not have the Godaddy clutter (who designed that thing?).
It is Linux based. The setup is much more difficult than it should be and they are not helpful. They seem to assume that you know Linux. They have no patience with Windows users and make unhelpful comments when you ask how to do something like transfer a folder of files from Windows to their server. I know that windows is garbage but since 99.9% of our clients use it - it does not make sense to fight it or pretend that it does not exist. I would jump to Linux in a second, but I would be all alone in my market. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Johnson" <j...@san-dc.com> To: <profox@leafe.com> Sent: Friday, September 02, 2011 7:07 AM Subject: Re: [NF] Free/Cheap web hosting recommendations I have been using these guys for years and they are awesome. http://www.webfaction.com/services/hosting Jeff --------------- Jeff Johnson j...@san-dc.com (623) 582-0323 www.san-dc.com On 09/02/2011 07:00 AM, Lou Syracuse wrote: > I need a host for a really basic site for a small poker group.
