Hello Charlie and listers,
I'll join this thread. I'm finding that most ColdFusion Hosting
companies while they offer support for many of CF's features they tend to be
quite stingy on disk space. During the National Federation of the Blind
Convention several weeks ago we established a new group called the National
Federation of the Blind Living History Group. One initiative of this group
is to digitize old recordings of past NFB events and place them on a Web
site for members and other interested individuals to listen to or download
to their hard drive, podcatcher, or whatever other device they have for
offline listening and storage. I've seen some hosting companies who offer
accounts with very generous amounts of disk space for a very cheap price;
500 GB to be exact. This would be more than enough to meet our needs for a
good while, but they don't support ColdFusion. If anyone knows of CF hosting
companies offering accounts with similar amounts of disk space who won't
take us to the bank that would be wonderful! We have a service used to
support a number of our affiliate Web sites and discussion lists, but it
does not support ColdFusion. I tried running some CF code on that host, but
didn't get as much as an invalid parser construct error. It simply ignored
the CF code and displayed the page without executing anything. Our Sysop has
been great about allotting us the disk space we need for our affiliate Web
sites. A project of this nature would require us to have a large amount of
space for file storage which we can manage ourselves and have under complete
control of our group. Any suggestions for CF hosts that would meet our needs
would be appreciated. I all ready use Yetihost for some of my CF accounts
of paying customers, but even they are stingy on disk space not to mention
having to pay by the British pound instead of the Yankee Dollar. Again your
suggestions and recommendations will be very much appreciated.

for "fairly simple", basic and cheap, i use www.hostingAtoZ.com.
They're definitely cheap :)
$20 a year gets you CFMX7 Enterprise and mySQL. $35 a year gets you
CFMX7 Enterprise and SQL Server2k5. And -very- few restrictions on
disabled tags/functions.
since i've started mentioning them more frequently, i've set up a
siteuptime.com monitor (running since June 10).
99.432% uptime.

Wrote about it more in-depth on my blog about a month ago. There are
also a few comments from other customers (and ex-customers) so you can
get a bigger picture.

So...If you all can direct me to who you use, I will gladly look at them and
give you the referal.
