Anybody know of a good place to host the ACRE web site. It must be able
to handle web sites of greater than 10 meg. Preferably 30 meg or more
and allow monthly traffic of several gig. Earthlink's limit is currently
10 meg web site and 1 gig monthly traffic. Info you will only find by
reading
the fine print on the Earthlink contract.

Paul,
I'm using IpowerWeb www.ipowerweb.com They have an $8 per month with a
gig of storage and 30gigs of transfer...and they'll handle your favorite
Microsoft extensions... ;-)

Couple of questions Andy. Do they have local telephone numbers in SoCal?
What do you mean by "they'll handle your favorite Microsoft extensions"?

Paul...
I've used AplusHosting for several years now...the best part is that if you have problems, they guarantee that they will get back to you in minutes...I have had to email them with problems maybe
three times in the last 4 years or so...they did indeed get back to me within just a minute or two...and all three times the problem was at my end, but they knew the solution. The couple of times I
talked live to them, it was to the owner, in California. He even walked me through my setup changes on the phone...excellent service...they also guarantee something like 99.5% uptime, but have been
getting 99.99% forever
AND...they use Linux!
Also, if you go over your alloted space or bandwidth, they just send you an email letting you know and giving you 30 days to correct it or buy a larger service. That only happened once with me when
I was storing a bunch of videos on it.
They are in California, or maybe "were"...as I think they recently moved to larger quarters.
Their basic service is $6.95 a month for 10GB of bandwidth and 300 MB of storage.
I don't know if they still offer it, but when I got in, they had an "Eternal" plan, where you pay a one time set fee of $100 (or around there...it's been awhile, and I , and after that it's been $25
a year, including domain reregistration.
I think that's gone up a little to $40 a year since then.
Here's there "why use us page...menus at the top to see the products and prices...
