Contract with Site5 is Almost Up. Move to Private Sharing Hosting?
My prepaid 1-year hosting service with Site5 is going to expire near the end of this month.
I've been very satisfied with Site5. I haven't experienced any problem. Their support is very responsive. Whenever I email about a question/issue, they respond within 30 minutes.
But Netfirms has a $10 for one year promotion going on. It seems very attractive from a pricing point. Currently, I am paying site5 $6.95/month ($83.40/year) for 5gb space. I'll need to research more on Netfirms.
Hosting on a virtual private server (eg. Linode has always been in my mind. But I don't think I really need it until I can free up my time and my mind to develop some interesting web applications to run on that kind of environment. It’s not cheap.
