I'm looking to change webhosts and I'd like some recommendations. (I am in Canada, but I don't think that's really a factor is it?)
Needs:
- room for up to 3 domains (real domains, not "faked" subdomains).
- mysql/php support
- the usual email things, including a good web-based mail interface (current one is very slow and often chokes)
- other doodads would be nice (such as ASP/MSsql support) as I like to experiment
I connect using Sympatico high-speed, so I don't need an ISP, just a host.
I am currently paying $6.95CDN/month for my webhosting, which is pretty good for the features they offer, but not good enough. My current host (Jodohost) seems too slow (I don't know if it's because they're on the other side of the world or not), and they're not as professional as I'd like.
Also, I'd like to know what, in general, I should expect from a good webhost in terms of reliability, timeliness, etc. Are they all bad to some extent? Will I just be going from one bad to another? Or can I expect a trouble-free hosting? Just generally.
