looking for host advice (no host people)

[Alphawolf]

whitey,

Good post. I'll be taking a hard look at both webair.com and xxxadulthost.com as they are physically located close to where I live right now.

Another question is how much bandwidth a host will provide...

webair states unmetered, but as a business plan that can't really be kept up and I'm curious how stable the serving can be.

xxxadulthost has 3.75Mbps / 1200GB Monthly on the low plan ($ 139 Monthly) and double that on the step up for 7Mbps / 2300GB ($249/month). Double the RAM as well.

Though, I wonder how well an IDE drive would do. RAID 1 is offered for $50/mo more.

Their main data centers are both within driving distance... xxxadulthost less than 10 minutes away in the same city.

Oh- regarding your own sites...do you notice a spike in traffic during weekends or is it fairly even?
