I've been meaning to send this email to the list for a few days.
Justin's "How to do...?" thread pushed me into doing it now. This email
addresses two things:
1. I can help host for less
2. I'm looking for partners
Therefore, if you are looking for hosting options, or if you are looking
to help me start a hosting service, read on.
I recently signed up to be a reseller with Verio. Maybe it'll even
replace my phone-call taking job with Verio if I find enough success
with this. I have no servers yet - first I want to find some partners -
people who want to share the cost, the time, and the prophets. I can
get any server plan with Verio for less than the price listed on their
site - not because I'm an employee taking advantage of things, but
because I'm now a contracted third party reseller. It costs less partly
because I (and anyone who joins me) will offer tech support instead of
Verio - and UPHPU members probably don't need as much support.
I can offer several hosting options, including (my first choices are the
top 2):
FreeBSD VPS 3 - this has root access to a virtual machine, Apache 2.2,
MySQL 5, PHP 5, and other up-to-date technologies.
Linux VPS - same as above, but with Red Hat Linux (or a close spin-off).
Signature shared hosting.
Automatic online PC drive backup.
Email me off list if you are interested, or send comments to the list
with suggestions.
