inmotion hosting

In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve moved my hosting to InMotion Hosting. I’m using one of their dedicated servers for all my projects and it has been very stable. They also offer a lot of affordable packages from shared hosting to VPS hosting. In term of tech support, they are the best I’ve experienced by far. Don’t you hate it when your server is down and there is noboby available to help you? If you are looking for web hosting with reasonable pricing and good services, I recommend them.

Now, if you would like to win 1-year free hosting from InMotion, enter a comment in this hosting giveaways contest before Feb 12, 2010.
