For a long time I have been hosting my server at home and never had any problems with doing that. My ISP didn't give me any problems hosting my server at home. Then a month ago I needed to move all my server services to somewhere else for a few months while I get enough money to build a new server that can do RAID 1. I have heard lots of people recommend Linode for there great service and up time. I was convinced to go with them except when I saw the price tag and looked for a alternative. I found a company called Fivebean that had VPS hosting service for only $6 a month out of Dallas Texas. So I decided to try them and that was a night mare. There images were really bad and I even tried different images of Ubuntu and still no luck. It had problems starting a newly install apache2 and finding and installing packages. So I got a refund after a few hours of trying to get it working and I looked back at Linode. I just said to myself I have no other option and I got a Linode for $20 a month and hosting it in Atlanta. I have been very happy with there service and never had any problems getting everything installed and running. I would recommend Linode to anybody looking for a VPS hosting company. Linode you rock!!
