[OPLINTECH] recomendation for a webhosting company

[Travis McAfee]

Way Public Library uses Dreamhost.  You can apply for free Web Hosting as a nonprofit there. They have something called "One Click Installs" and will do 90% of the Joomla install for you.  They support something like 30 different one click installs, all OpenSource.  You'll have to pay Domain Registration fees ($10 a year through them). You get access to a pretty nice web panel, a full suite of SQL controls, unlimited subdomains (ex: kids.waylibrary.info) a decent amount of storage, and full tech support.

We experience about 10 minutes of downtime a month (that we are aware of).

With all that said, Dreamhost ranks solidly middle pack of customer satisfaction and their knowledge base (in the form of a wiki) can sometimes be a little out-dated.

Overall, we're pretty happy, especially since it's free and robust.  If you are looking for someone to do a Drupal migration for you, I don't think they do that. You'd have to move your content on your own.

Subject: [OPLINTECH] recomendation for a webhosting company


Does anybody have any recommendations for a good webhosting company? Preferably someone that has a support department with decent response time. Our current site is designed in Drupal and we want to move to Joomla(from what I understand)
