Re: Mac friendly Web hosting

Robert,

I have mine and a couple of clients hosted at 1 and 1. Their default service is Linux/Unix. From what you are describing, you probably could use one of their options the goes for less than $6/month. Buying a .com or a .net address is only $6/year. Their offices are located just west of Philadelphia.

Follow this link: http://www.1and1.com/?k_id=8790210

And yes, if you sign up from this link, I will get a kicker.

I do my web design using Dreamweaver on a Windows box and publish to a FreeBSD system in my office. Testing is done off of my local BSD system. I then publish to 1 and 1 using FTP.

Good luck with it. Web pages are not hard. But you do have to be careful.

Mike

In what way to do you need it to be "mac friendly"? Just
that the control panel web page doesn't require IE? That
it actually run on a mac so you can, say, compile executables
to upload and run as cgi?

I'll upload files from the command line via FTP most likely. However, I would like the ability to set permissions on specific directories individually. I guess that's more "unix-friendly" than specifically Mac-friendly.

Don't need any of that. I have (now) only 7 static pages. No cgi, php, database, what have you. The site is small, under 10 MB at present. My needs are simple. And thanks for the feedback.
