[u4eas]

Looking for a GOOD dedicated host... These guys look like a good deal, anyone use em? I have been burned before with hosting companies, I want some referrals before I dish out my cash...

Any help would be appreciated... Or any other recommendations would help...

My web host is aplus dot net, which I selected from among the top 25 list compiled by tophosts dot com.

Their tech support is okay. I have called them twice, and it took a while to reach a tech support rep. One of my calls was placed at close to midnight, so I give them the benefit of the doubt and presume that they have less reps working at those odd hours.

If you are transfering a domain name, then note that aplus uses a subsidiary company to do so, so you will end up receiving notifications from both aplus and the subsidiary regarding your hosting acct and domain transfer respectively.

I use both Hostway (Gold plan) and Aplus (SoloXR) so I can't speak for their dedicated host plans.

But as for support, Hostway beats Aplus by a country mile. I chose Aplus in haste (sucked by Cnet's recommendation - Cnet won't publish negative opinions) and will probably park a test site there and move my business site also to Hostway.

I use hostway. I've never had a problem. I think that I'm going to (godaddy) soon it's cheaper and and never heard anything bad about them. Also, I switch all my domains over to them.

Hope that helps!

Hostway is definitely a large company offering good phone support and outstanding reliability, but I see them as more of the "old guard". There are so many options available right now that cost less and offer more features.

Hostway is suppose to be good, but you will end up paying US$ 11.00 per additional site using unique IP!

Think about it..

P.S.. Last time I talked with them, this is what I was told.

Hope this helps.
