Hosting support

I'm considering to get a dedicated from MT. http://www.mediatemple.net/services/webhosting/dv/
Do you have experience with them? I have huge traffic and I need a reliable server. Is there anything they don't support that Drupal 4.6 or 4.7 will need? Thank you!

drupal 4.7 with IPOWER host? is compatible?

I'm having problem with uploading files..4.7 + ipower

does anyone using IPOWER?

thanks

Even if I did not a good experience with 1and1 overall, I'll try to do this evaluation as neutral as possible.

I have been with 1and1 for a couple of months, first for the domain names, and after I try the hosting solution.

-The domain names are cheap. It is easy to setup and there is mostly all options you can think of.
-The hosting have changed these past days. 9,99$ for 100GB? That looks good, but... is there someone who can confirm this? I know that they recently bouth another company, mabe this is what it is all about.
-90 days money back guarantee, but look in the ugly.
-You can use modrewrite, read the faq and their website :)

By the way, 1and1 and GoDaddy are the two biggest competitors in the domain name hosting area.

-My favorite answer is when you send them an email you get this :"Thank you for your recent e-mail. We expect to answer your email within the next 12 to 24 hours." And trust me, they do take that much time. This company is in UK, so, sometime, when the Americas are up, they are sleeping and vice versa.
-They don't use cpanel. So if you want to take all your stats from, let's say awstats, and transfert them to them, you can't. They have their own pannel.
-They subsystem is weird. Your ftp username won't be joe@yourdomain.com, it will be 345456567@dynipstuff.net . And it is like this for everything.

I build websites. Not the design part, but rather the technical backend. Since about a year, I have used a self-configured version of Drupal to do this.

It now occurs to me, that I would be better off solely providing Drupal hosted services, focusing on keeping the server / Drupal installation stable and promote this service to webdesigners and other internet professionals. Let them interact with the end user.

To help reseller offer the right package and help webmaster to choose the right hosting package for their requirement.

As we can see this days hosting companies offers a huge space with unlimited bandwidth but always that mean is good performance or make us pay for something we are not going to use it, Webmasters are concern about the services (support, easy & full control account and additional futures).

Our company, Machine Networks Ltd, offers affordable UK based linux web hosting with Drupal available on all hosting plans.
By using Fantastico, each customer can easily setup Drupal 4.7 by following a few simple steps. Alternatively, upon request, we can install and configure it for them.

Our web hosting packages start from £3.50 per month or £2.92 (if paid yearly).
