Well, Mindraven gets new Administration and everything goes belly up!

They moved my site from one server to another and have now lost all of yeserdays posts and changes.

Anyone know of a decent hosting service?

I've been using a VPS on ServInt.net for a few years with no complaints. Great prices when compared to what I've seen.

I'm sorely tempted to move...they're really messing up over at Mindraven.

I've been with them for several years now and they've been awesome.

I have been hosting my own since 2000 and had hosted 3 others for a while till someone in here accused me of trolling for business in these forums. I can tell you it is quite cheap to get a commercial connection, a professional one, with multiple IP addresses and toss in a few DNS servers and a web server with your email and all that crap. You do not need to have your own DNS servers but it makes it a lot easier to have everything in house and do it all your self.

I would suggest using Linux servers as there are much much less security risks and a lot easier to operate with out all that drag a Windows servers has. The difference is Linux requires very little to no resources to run on idle as where Windows requires a ton of resources to just sit there.

A smaller Linux server will kick the crap out of a large Windows server any day of the week.

I have always used my own servers. Call me a control freak, but I like to know that if something goofs up, I only can blame myself.
