[BC] Web hosting?

[RichardBJohnson@comcast.net]

I use HostMySite.com. It costs $107.40 per year including $8.95 
domain registration. They have on-line web-page builders plus stuff 
to take credit cards, etc. I don't use them. I just upload everything 
using ftp. I write the web-pages with an editor and syntax-check with 
available tools. I also use ipowerweb.com. However, their statistics 
won't work last time I checked so I have no clue if anybody actually 
accesses the site. The costs is cheaper, but I forgot what it was. I 
use this site to forward web-page access and email to my main site. I 
also use ftp here so I don't bother using or even learning to use the 
on-line tools.

HostMySite uses Windows and ipowerweb uses BSD Unix. In both cases, 
the OS is transparent. Both sites have been reliable, i.e., they seem 
to be always on-line. HostMySite sends an email notification if they 
are going to be off-the-air for software updates, etc. Ipowerweb 
doesn't. They just send me a bill once a year!
