Re: [OT] Web Hosting?

Hi Allan,

I use web power plus for the http://www.rottenlead.com	web site.  It 
supports all the database, forum and gallery systems I use to publish my

site.	 Robert Yates is my support/sales contact and he has provided 
excellent service, answering all my dumb questions.  Worth dropping him
a 
note for those finer detailed questions that are difficult to answer
when 
just looking at the sales web pages. -	robert@webpowerplus.org . They
do a 
range of packages starting out really cheap and you can pay via paypal 
subscription, which I find handy because you can cancel it instantly if
the 
web host gets into trouble.

I also run http://www.skirmishwargames.co.uk off the same space and the
dual 
host names are all being handled well by the name servers at Webpower.

Webpower moved me from Westlin Hosting who filled for bankruptcy, but
failed 
to tell the customers until I found out that my server space was just 
humming away in an empty building. I had no response for support when my

site kept bouncing.

Regards
Robin
