Ode to Better Web Hosts

I’d been pondering dropping Bliksem for a while. Vince had told me about Site5 a while ago, and I was really interested in what they offered. Sometimes all you need is a little push, and my blog going down and apathetic support staff did it for me.

So, Site5! Feature-wise, the best I’ve seen (better than Bliksem). They have a slick interface that incorporates everything for my account – billing, domain renewal, help requests, and site management – in a way that is the most intuitive I’ve seen in my hosting experience. Their help responses are relatively immediate as well – the responsiveness isn’t perfect, but it’s better than where Bilksem was earlier this week.

The conversation continues...

    I’ve been there for years now. You’re right about the slick interface, a custom job, you won’t find anything else like it. I think they recently moved/partnered with The Planet in Dallas.

What do you think?
