Since this posted a while ago

Due to some server issues, migration, etc. etc. I got a tad behind on adding entries to UUpdates. One blog seems to be updated fairly regularly, and the particular post of interest is no longer current I thought I would link to it here. Check out this post on growing religion through social media.

Hosting Company Recommendations?

Anyone have suggestions for a good hosting company? My current hosting company has annoyed me for the last time. It is more than time to move on. Requirements include:
  • Would be nice if they were a "green" host. Run on wind power or some such.
  • Need at least 2-3 GB of bandwidth per month. Thousands of visitors and all the fetching traffic add up.
  • PHP/MySQL are absolute musts fewer the limitations on number of databases, etc. the better
  • Ability to host multiple domains
  • Cron support (or some scheduled task) is a must
  • SSH is a must
  • Ability to acces at least port 80 outbound from the server
  • 24x7 chat with Tech Support (for cases like now when they mess things up)
Anyone know anything about http://www.sustainablewebsites.com? In my quick searches they looked good.

Thanks

Minor Interruptions

There may be minor interruptions as UUpdates is migrated to a new server. The hosting company that I am currently using (I will be asking for recommendations for a new host in a later post) was bought out and the servers got migrated despite my selecting the "I will do this manually option".

Hopefully things will be straightened out shortly.
