I am familiar with a company (hosting) that has been using Foxweb for many years to host VFP on 10's of websites. Maybe even a couple of hundred. It worked and still works very well with a couple of problems that are - in my opinion - user made. They run out of channels which appears to be due to licensing / configuration. The other issue is "index does not match database." which is due to the prg not working perfectly in a multi-user environment. They would occasionally get a "foxweb.dll not found." In my opinion these would not be issues with one site running foxweb - which sounds like what you are trying to do.
