I've stated that I would be willing to pay 50% of the current cost of a VPS just to have as a backup to the primary. AHP's prices are so low that I wouldn't expect more without paying more. With a backup VPS, I could have all sites running in a couple of hours rather than a couple of days, not to mention the loss of productivity and cost of setting up a server with a new host. I agree with you on the updates... email *and* website. The primary concern in any crisis situation is good information. Rick > -----Original Message----- > From: Michael E.
