Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Web Hosting : Windows Hosting : Whats the best hosting provider for me

[BigV]

I am researching windows hosting providers and am wary of oversellers. What'd you suggest are the best ones for our needs -

Approx 20GB disk space, 25 GB bandwidth
MS Sql Server and ASP.NET 2 support

unlimited domain names
Fully Managed

Price is not an issue if the service is 24x7 and downtime in minimal.

Any suggestions?

Hello,
It's much better to get a VPS solution, you will have your resources, and it will not be oversell.
You could find a good one for price $43-$95 per month.

How will he run MSSQL 2005 on a vps? He will require a SQL license and they are not cheap for 2005. Your best bet is a reseller account since you want to offer SQL 2005. Helm and H-Sphere are 2 good options and most host using these panels offer SQL 2005 at this point in the game.

Good luck with your search!

You mentioned Fully Managed. So that means you have to obtain a VPS. You can install SQL 2005 Express Edition but it requires mimimum of 512 MB RAM to work properly.

The best idea is to purchase a reseller account with HELM or DotNetPanel as control panels. I prefer DotNetPanel than HELM or H-Sphere.

I agree with Anand. You can consider purchasing a reseller account and DotNetPanel/HELM.

Cheers!

I would recommend freedomgroundz.com to anyone. I have been with them for quite some time and I have had no issues at all. Their support is top of the line and they guarentee the best prices and stand behind that. You know how they say "If it sounds to good to be true, then it probably is." well not with FreedomGroundz. They are awsome. 99.9% uptime.
