Recommendations for flexible web hosting?

Mar 08, 2007 12:10

I'm looking for advice here. I want access to a proper web host with enough space and reliability to do whatever comes to mind. I find the idea of a virtual server quite appealing. That would give me significant freedom in setting up my system or choosing the specific server configuration I want.

What do other people recommend? Ideally I would like:

Drop our old classmate Craig a line at http://xeriom.net :)

Cheers, I'd forgotten about him. Is that a personal recommendation from experience or just a pointer?

Cronyism: alive and well. ;-)

He's who I use, although I don't have a virtual server with him - my package is an older, simpler hosting package.

Hey Steve, thanks for linking me up :)

(this link in particular has generated really quite a lot of hits -- it's up there at aobut number three on the referers list!)

I also do virtual servers for friends. If you're interested (sounds like you've already got a friend who does something similar) you can chat to me about it on robhu@jabber.org.

I should add that after looking my 'friends' rates are better than his normal rates :-)

Heya, tracked down this post as tons of people are clicking Steve's link. I'm not stalking you or anything :D

We've got a few shiny deals on VMs up at http://xeriom.net/news - give me a yell if you fancy any of those or have any questions and we'll get you all hooked up. Can even give you a free month to play with a few different sizes of VMs to see if you like the network and the resource allocation - no obligations.

Email - craig@xeriom.net - is probably the easiest way to get hold of me for the next few days, or I can give you a call if you fancy, just let me know your number and when is convenient.

Cheers, I will look into things. I still haven't decided 100% what I want (or need, for that matter) and I want to do some more requirements-gathering first. ;-)

Hey again,

Just wanted to find out if you had crystalised your requirements, and if you are still interested in a VM.

Give me a yell and let me know :)

Cheers,
Craig
