Pete, > Can you suggest any other hosting companies with a cheaper VPS than > HostMySite
Unfortunately I cannot. I haven't personally used a shared hosting service. 512MB RAM sounds pretty low. Assuming it's a Windows server, 512MB is likely needed just to run Windows. I'm assuming SQL is on another box. If not, then MSSQL itself will want RAM. Note: If MSSQL costs extra, you can always go with a free DB like MySQL or PostgreSQL. I use MySQL for some FarCry projects and it runs quite well (and requires less resources than MSSQL). Personally when I run a server that has Windows, MSSQL, and CF (all on the same box), I don't like to run anything less than 2GB RAM. Fortunately RAM is cheap. The downside is that most VPS solutions charge way too much for RAM (it's disgusting how much they charge for it when the RAM is so cheap to buy). All of my servers are my own. All of my clients have their own servers. I only have one client who uses a VPS solution. They use Crystaltech. The server is slow as a snail, but luckily FarCry's object broker caches most of the data - allowing the site run quite fast. That particular VPS has 1GB RAM (windows & CF) and their MSSQL is on a separate shared box (with WAY too many accounts - plus they never ran a single service pack on the MSSQL box which is a security concern for me).
