Re: Any good web hosting sites?
Throw another vote of confidence in for GoDaddy. We host the websites for Los Pollos Locos and SCRIW there (plus a bunch of sites at work), all running Wordpress. (Which, if you're starting a website, I'd highly recommend looking at. MUCH simpler, and anyone can update it. That gets important when your guy that hard-codes everything either gets sick, gets busy with non-robotics things, or graduates.)

Re: Any good web hosting sites?
An old member of team 616 has a server with Dreamhost and offers free hosting to FRC teams. Go to http://www.usfirsthost.com/ to contact him about setting something up. He currently hosts 6 teams there.

Re: Any good web hosting sites?
While I've never hosted an FRC website with it, I've heard good things about FellowSites. Great support from a not-for-profit business with a customizable plan and flexible payment.

Re: Any good web hosting sites?
Years ago we used Godaddy which was fine for hosting non-databased oriented pages, simple html, etc. Then we did a site at GoDaddy with a mysql backend and they could not get the job done. Performance was lousy. Plus you could measure performance slow down from the middle of the night into the day as internet usage increased.
That was years ago and maybe they have their issues fixed. We switched over to Bluehost as did several other people that I knew that had similiar problems at Godaddy. Bluehost's performance has been excellent. The customer support has been stunningly good, better than everyone I deal with in any industry. |

Re: Any good web hosting sites?
Thankfully, one of our mentors in our first year (Overdrive), who is a tech staffer at our school, got in touch with CTC (local telecommunications company - telephone, websites, etc) and got us free hosting.
Personally I use Servage, though I wouldn't recommend it for hosting a team website. For hosting a team website, I'd go with Dreamhost or probably any of the other options offered here. ![]() |

Re: Any good web hosting sites?
We have been using Vivid-Hosting. Started by an alumnus of Team 968, this great Web Hosting Company has been extremely fast and reliable with their modern lightning-fast servers. Two thumbs up!
They have been providing game hosting & co-location services to major businesses for years, but their web hosting division is just starting. We are currently beta-testing the program and the experience has been excellent thus far. I believe they're planning on officially revealing the service toward the holiday after they finish their new website. Last edited by NickE : 02-12-2009 at 00:35. |

Re: Any good web hosting sites?
Hi,
Our team dosen't have a site yet (we're the first Australian team ) but in my limited experience if you want to go from COMPLETE scrach and you know how to configure a server set up ftp, http, etc. Then http://www.rackspacecloud.com/ is quite good. It's designed around a pay-as-you-go system and it's quite cheap. They also offer a 30 day trial.Thanks, timytamy |

Re: Any good web hosting sites?
We use WestHost, and it's awesome. EVERYTHING is customizable, even the php.ini file. I don't know how much it costs, but it's the best one I've seen. If you're just using html, and no php, then you might not need it, but if you ever switch over to the awesomeness that is server-side scripting, then it's my recommendation.
