Hosting is the backbone of your operation... don't go for the cheapest in that area.

The best deal out there may not really be that great if they don't have a solid backbone operation. Even though they're cheaper, I'd prefer to go for the name, quality, and backend operation.

The nicest most popular guys in the industry may not be the best people to host with.

I love poppy and we host some stuff with Jupiter.

But our core hosting decision is very important. Often network guys and tech's don't talk / write as well as they design networks or run servers. I think that it's important to make the decision based on reliability, uptime, and support above cost, reputation, and exposure at the shows.

But it really depends on what you're hosting.

ummm... just a heads up but the guys who will bs on icq for fun are also the guys you can get a hold of when shit is flying.

And shit will fly as most hosting companies seem to be run out of their parent's basement.

Sit down and take a long moment to ask yourself why you just don't contact Tony or Bill and go with National Net.

When a top ranked company offers a price match guarantee do you still go with the unproven econo company? I don't think so.
