I need some advice...
I presently have several sites hosted on shared hosting account at my provider (Interland). Long and short, I am going to be changing hosts. They have recently raised all of their prices, which are now too expensive for the service they are providing. (**Not too expensive, just too expensive for them and their horrible service.)
So now I am looking for a web host to handle my sites. Cost is some factor, but not totally major. (ie. I am not going to shell out 500 a month for a dedicated server, plus the fact I just don't have the time to manage something like a dedicated server.) I am presently paying 20 a month, and don't mind going over that some. (The plan is going up to 30)
The way I am hosting right now, is that I have one domain associated with my account at Interland. Then I point my other domains via my external DNS tool (easyDNS, btw), and just point it to the domain. I then have an ASP script which points the domain to the correct subdirectory.
Platform doesn't really matter to me, as my site scripts can be rewritten. They are presently in ASP, but they are all flat HTML files, combined using includes. Includes pretty much work on most script/include platofirms (ie. standard includes, asp, php, etc). But I do need something to handle all of my domains (about 5 right now, possibly up to 10 as I continue other projects.)
Any suggestions as to companies, plans, etc. would be greatly appreciated. :-)
