I run an existing site which is around two years old. I am on my second web host and I'm at the point I'd like to burn their building down! It's fair to say that I am less than satisfied.
Some details and requirements.
Server: Shared or dedicated - I'm open to suggestions. I want to manage nothing except the website itself though.
Size: Around 3GB and growing. RAID 1 would be of interest.
Transfer: Around 35GB a month and growing.
OS: Windows - site is written in ASP and running from a MS SQL database (so SQL database space is required).
Forum: There is also a phpBB forum attached using a MySQL database (PHP support and MySQL database required).
Email: Exchange email hosting required (currently only three mailboxes). Webmail required too.
Backup: (Daily?) backups required.
After the support disasters I've encountered I am keen to work with a company that does what they say, as opposed to one which just tells people what they think will make a sale. So, I'm looking for 24/7 support with a decent level of SLA (it doesn't have to be five nines, but it needs to be honest!).
It's a major pain in the a*se to move everything and I don't want to get a few months down the road and be in the same situation. I want a solution that I can rely on, but I don't want to pay Rackspace prices!
Thanks in advance.
