Yeah, I never really thought about breaking my price down to a monthly rate. Considering that, my rate seems pretty cheap... too cheap. So who would you suggest then? What sort of price range should I be looking at? I'm really only going to be hosting my blog (as soon as I get it off the ground), and perhaps some demos of a couple of jQuery plug-ins that I'm working on, and other farily trivial stuff like that. No ecommerce, none of my client's will be hosted off this, it's just for me to play.

Crystal Tech is about $16/month.. maybe I could swing that. Any other thoughts?

Chris, considering you are talking about 4-6 bucks a month, you are not going to find service much different than Viux. There are several similar to them, and my experience has been that they are often crowded, overloaded boxes, but are well worth the twenty cents a day! If you hike the price a bit, you will find much stronger service, but I doubt you will find a silver bullet at the rate you mentioned. Another thing to keep in mind on the budget hosts is that I would *never* *EVER* keep anything of any security value on them. I found some absolutely unbelievable security holes on Viux when I was with them, and I am sure it is not terribly uncommon.

My hosting plan with ViUX hosting is about to run out, and I don't much
care for them. I've got a client who uses CrystalTech hosting (and there
for *I* use CrystalTech on their behalf), and they're not too bad, but
I'm wondering if there's some CF hosting place out there, that's just
super awesome, and I couldn't go wrong by choosing them.

I'd like something relatively inexpensive ($40-$75/year)... and I like
to pay annually.

Any thoughts?

Again, I'm sorry for beating a dead horse... please don't pull out the
rubber hoses on me! :o)
