ChrisB,

Powersurge has been VERY slow lately, and they've also been having many problems. I think most of them can be attributed to growth.

They do offer incredible features for the price, but I wouldn't exactly classify them as super reliable or anything. I have many accounts with them and over the past couple weeks they've all gone down at least once, with a couple being down for over 3 hours.

Plus their SQL servers are slow due to the number of accounts they put on them. If you can put up with that then they're not a bad host.

I recently got a Virtualscape NT account and I'm finding the access to be MUCH faster and so far there hasn't been any downtime (3 weeks), but they're more expensive for SQL, and you don't get as many features/bandwidth/space.

Regards,
Peter J. Boettcher

Thanks, but I can't find any service that beats Powersurge.net, my main points of interest are SQL space and traffic ($49,99 for 550 mb + 10gb), and I don't want to start with more than 100$ per month, if the project will be a success, i'll upgrade.
But I'm not fully happy with Powersurge because some sites hosted there are very slow this week. Any other ideas or experiences with them?

Thanks,

Christian

I know www.burlee.com is very good, though I don't know if they are what you want. Check out some of the hosting directories and I'm sure you'll find something...
www.hostsearch.com www.webhostdir.com www.hostindex.com

Hi everyone,
I'm searching a fast, reliable NT host offering ASP and SQL Server which can handle lots of users and traffic, switching to a dedicated server should be possible very fast.
Thanks,

Christian

You might want to stay away from Burst.net for NT hosting. I've been with them a month and their NT support seems to be really lacking. I heard good things about them in general (which is why I signed up), but they must be mostly a Linux/Unix place because their FAQs and the techs I've gotten through IM don't have much info on NT.

Innerhost offers everything you're looking for, and I've heard that they're pretty reliable.

Hope this helps!
