    <p>Thanks Mik,<br>
      <br>
      Actually there were 2 threads on the topic, discussing but not
      answering David's question:<br>
      And I've been meaning to expand on this because I am still looking
      for an answer.<br>
      Subjects: <br>
                  Hosting/Common logic after SiteGround"<br>
                  [Hidden-tech] Siteground does serious screwup of web
      sites</p>
    <p>The discussion is at: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
        href="http://lists.hidden-tech.net/pipermail/hidden-discuss/"
        moz-do-not-send="true">http://lists.hidden-tech.net/pipermail/hidden-discuss/</a><br>
      Under Jan or Feb (view by thread)<br>
      <br>
      The most common element is that hosting companies will all crater
      eventually as the market and technology change.<br>
      The most comprehensive answer was aimed at more 'serious'
      commercial sites that can justify.<br>
             Rob Laporte explained that in details, although I don't
      quite agreed with some of the layers a quote he provides
      describes.<br>
    </p>
    <p>Also there were 2 lower end suggestions:<br>
               hcoop.net - which is fascinating and might be a good
      answer if you have the technical skill and desire to mold it to
      your needs,<br>
                           (I have the first and probably not the 2nd)<br>
               Hostgator - suggest by Shel - on review their cost might
      be ok for a very few number of CMS sites (WP, Joomla, Drupal) Not
      for more complex needs.<br>
      <br>
      Personally, I am drifting to the solution being a VPS setup and
      look at: hostinger.com <br>
                 ($12/mon for reasonably powerful vps but still
      researching - esp looking for experiences)<br>
      <br>
      Anyone else with Sites hosting or VPS suggestions ?  personally I
      want an option under $15/mon (for VPS).<br>
    </p>
    <p>Stay well all<br>
