If I were starting again (and I may well be shortly ...) I'd go with hover for name management and Digital Ocean for the server(s). I already use both at work and have been very happy with them. Hover isn't the cheapest, but their prices are reasonable, they offer automatic privacy for domain owners, and their name management for sub-domains and the like is excellent. Digital Ocean is kind of a pain because yes, you do have to admin your own server, but that's also the plus side: no one decides which services are available for you to install. So it depends how much time you want to spend, and how much flexibility you need. At their cheapest, D.O. is $5US a month, although I'd encourage you to turn on the automatic backups for +20% per month. And start with the smallest server, because you can expand it to the next tier very easily - but shrinking the server requires considerably more work if you realize you didn't need such a big and expensive box. Good luck. -- Giles http://www.gilesorr.com/ [email protected] --- Talk Mailing List [email protected] http://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
