Hi Hayden, The security of a web site is up to the company who happens to be hosting the website not the person paying the monthly bill for the web hosting service. If a person happens to be paying somebody like Blue Host for web space and a website gets hacked that is Blue Host's fault for poor

Hi Philip, Sad to say your's isn't the only case like that I heard of. Blue Host, in my opinion, is crap. They regularly have security problems, sloppy security, and then they always blame the user if anything goes wrong. Yet it really is their responcibility to see that their servers are up to

In my opinion, the best solution is to get your own custom vps or virtual server if you can. That way people will not target you if they decide to go against certain hosting company. In my experience, me and the person i share a linnode with have been running websites for more than a year on the

Hi, I didn't catch the beginning of this thread either, but I agree with Oriol's post, a vps, it's more expensive, but in my opinion it's worth it. I also avoid control panels whereever possible as I've found, that yes you can set something up quickly, but if there's a flaw in that panel chances

Hi, Running your own VPS is certainly the best solution. I personally love Linode, which I don't find too expensive. By using a VPS, I get full root access to any Linux distribution of my choice (I prefer Debian), and I get to secure the system myself. I won't have to depend on someone to update

Hi, Well, I definitely think a VPS is the best solution, but only if the person is an experienced network administrator. An incompetent VPS administrator is as bad or worse than using something like Blue Host. However, if the person is experienced in setting up and configuring something like the
