Nice balance of price, performance, service.

Very low price.

For infinology, I think you want the SmartConsumer package, which is cheaper, but support is through help desk ticket package instead of on the phone.

I've had a couple years experience with a provider who I would descrive as very responsive, high integrity, and excellent customer service. Reasonable rates too!

Not a flashy site, but quality service.

Hi,

cwihosting.com is another good alternative. So far it has not been down (6 months) while I was watching. They even refund you half of the monthly fees if a site is down longer than 20 minutes in a row or not related to a reboot (although I did not know that when I signed up ).

For another site I use eroute.net but the last couple of days it has been out of the air frequently so I do not consider it to be reliable. They have a very good response time but I prefer both uptime/speed and good service.

Best regards,

Martijn

I use AliveWWW, had good results so far with them.

anyone using virtual hosting? i was checking this site out:http://www.rackforce.com/index.php?rb=vds

I have been using Always Web Hosting for about 1 year for my personal site, and for several ministry sites that I support.

Since I have experience with sites on different servers, I can share that some servers are more "exhausted" than others, and he uses a shared MySQL host (separate from the web server boxes).

Web packages are relatively cheap: <$30 month for 2GB storage/30Gb bandwidth and unlimited everything.

They have been very responsive both by e-mail and IM (even phone) when I have had problems. Most frequent issue is DNS for subdomains getting confused. (happened twice in 1 year).

-- Also had good experience with Christian Web Host
-- moved away because I needed more space for audio content.
their service and support were better than AWH, but the packages were smaller (300MB) and limited subdomains and databases.

Friends have had good success with Host Rocket
I have not deployed any sites there yet, but they will be my next choice for a move.

Cheers,

Hi CBlue,
can you give us the name of your site, or sites hosted by onsmart, so I can test their speed and so on.

Aloha

I have 4 sites with them, one of which uses upto 45gig of bandwidth per month (http://www.broadiecarpark.com)... Never had any troubles, the service is EXCELLENT! even thought they may be a tad bit more expensive than some hosts its worth the few extra bucks.

NOTE: Inquire about there PowerPlan
