Re: [nlug] website hosting suggestions please
Howdy! If you choose to switch to static files, GitHub can be an excellent choice. You can also point a custom domain at your site when using GitHub's site publishing features. You could also use a static site generator to go from Markdown (or other template language) -> static files. GitHub has support for at least one static site generator, Jekyll. https://help.github.com/articles/user-organization-and-project-pages/ The publishing features of GitHub are free. Enjoy!

Re: [nlug] website hosting suggestions please
AWS' S3 Hosting does not allow server-side scripting, just simple hosting of unprocessed files.

Re: [nlug] website hosting suggestions please
The reason my Hostgator site went down is (a little embarrassing) ... my fault, nothing to do with Hostgator. I do have a backup file of my former site, just thought I might look into other avenues that may give me more flexibility. Andrew mentioned a simple AWS hosted thing at past meetings.

Re: [nlug] website hosting suggestions please
I use dreamhost extensively, and I have been very happy all around. they offer quite a variety of price points for everything from shared to vps to dedicated. As Gibson said, knowing your expectations will be super helpful. Do you want to have a joomla (or other CMS like wordpress) one-click-installed for you, with upgrades managed and all that? Or do you want to install and manage everything from scratch - or something in between? Also, seconding what Gibson asked - what happened with your previous host?

Re: [nlug] website hosting suggestions please
What are the issues with HostGator? Do you have a backup of the Joomla data? If so, you can move it to pretty much any Joomla-enabled host. What are your criteria for hosting? Are you looking for something at a particular price point or with a special feature set? If you can provide more details, perhaps someone can make a suggestion. I host through WootHosting.com for inexpensive VPS (virtual private server) hosting where I control the OS and everything, which is nice.
