Title: Neat Webhosting Deal
Post by: Kamikaze on May 03, 2006, 08:03:17 pm

The webhost that I use, TextDrive (http://www.textdrive.com), is offering a lifetime hosting service right now for $499. It's a really nice webhost because they give ssh access, ruby support, etc. to all accounts.

In case you're interested, here're the specs on the deal: http://textdrive.com/mixedgrill

Hmh, not very appealing offer. Dreamhost has excellent shared hosting offers but I have no personal experience of their service quality.

Then there's Servelocity offering virtual dedicated servers instead of shared hosting plans. Good for sites that just use too much resources to fit on most shared hostings. (Well, only Servelocity Unlimited really)

TextDrive, eh? I'm partial to them, I must confess, since when I was looking for a modern CMS solution for the website I manage at work, one that used CSS and standards-based HTML, I found TextPattern, which was made by the same team that started TextDrive. ;)
