Do you have good experiences with Zoneedit.com? I looked at this
recently, but have to admit the website make me look elsewhere.

Subject: Re: [entrepreneur-1056] Hosting question
I’ve been using Tagadab for VPS
and am happy with them, especially as they are cheaper than AWS at £10 per
month. But they don’t have the nifty restore feature that VPS.net offers – I
may even switch to VPS (only learned about them readig this thread, thanks as
always).
And if you want shared webhosting, good ol’
href="http://www.webfaction.com/services/hosting?affiliate=uguser">http://www.webfaction.com
is hard to beat. Webfaction will even support Zope/Plone, and includes free
https (like all free https, your users need to explicitly accept the
certificate). Their control panel is great for having multiple subdomains, and
their DNS over-ride feature allows you to have subdomains off site or setup
CNAME and MX Records for google apps (FYI – if anyone is thinking about google
apps, shoot me an email – I’ve set that up for about a dozen clients so far).
Some other Hosting Providers don’t give access to DNS or suggest that users
email them with requests for DNS changes – forcing me to use alternate DNS
services like the free zoneedit.com, with
it’s exciting 1998-esque interface.

Hi Manish,
Your email is contradictory. If you have a shared server you will not be doing
any installation, config or admin as it is all taken care of for you. Maybe you
are referring to ‘virtual hosts’ where you essentially hire a VM machine
portion of a server, in which case you get full root access to do everything
with. The problem with shared virtual hosting is usually limited CPU and
limited bandwidth.
Just scan for ‘virtual shared hosting’ or ‘virtual private servers’ for this.
uk2.net do dedicated servers for
£50 per month, with very excellent bandwidth
All web hosts are crap at one point, usually when they have a server outage and
this can cost you a whole day or two. If that is a problem for you, I would
also recommend outsourcing your DNS (someone like ultradns) for about £20 a
year and hiring a second server, from a separate provider. Your DNS settings
can be changed to 10 mins time-to-live and if you have a problem with server#1,
change the dns to point to server#2 (and of course copy all your web files from
your regular backups to server2) and you will be up and running again in 15
mins.
hope this helps.
regards,
Antony Penn

Hi there,
I’m looking for a fast, cheap, no-frills, UK-based shared
hosting company to host a PHP / MySQL application.
We’re hands-on and can do most of the
installation/configuration/administration ourselves. We just need a quick,
shared, server because we don’t think we can afford dedicated hosting at the moment.
Thanks in advance for any recommendations.
