Hi Peachey, thank you. I hear GoDaddy is for those who don't need technical support, ie. those who can handle their own problems. Yes, I also hear that Dreamhost is good.
What do I mean by "I have to set up my own database manually"? Usually when you set up your wiki, the program will help you install your database. But with Hostgator, it says that there is no database. I asked Hostgator about it and they say I didn't create my database. I have to go to Cpanel and then create the database, using the Database Wizard. I don't have this problem with my two other webhosts. I am now looking at Serverpoint.com, previously known as APlusHosting.com. It's price is midrange, not the cheapest nor the most expensive. But I am tired of technical problems, so I don't mind paying a bit more. PM Poon On Mon, Feb 16, 2009 at 2:21 PM, K.
