FP Hosting Services

[Uncle Joe]

Okay, I finally built up the nerve to open/install my new copy of
FP2003 Upgrade.
FP2002 is presently installed. So, instead of developing a site using
Movable Type,
MySQL, and PHP, I'm committing to FP2003. Still don't know what
database
to use (want high performance and ease of maintenance (particularly a
DB that will
allow me to delete offensive comments, pictures, HTML, and
attachments)).

Am seeking recommendations for a superb hosting service offering the
latest
FP support, with generous file allotments and bandwidth. You folks
have heard
the horror stories about some hosts, I'm sure. Steer me from them,
please.

If you'd rather not comment publicly, send me an email. Thanks.

The database you use has no bearing on whether or not you can edit it. That's up to your
skill as a programmer.
Access works wonderfully well, as does SQL Server.

Unc,

Check out the software they have too. They'll install Snitz forum and a
couple of others too for 50 bucks (they're free forums but they charge for
install if you don't want to hassle with it)....SO...you "may" be able to
use a portal/forum for your blog idea. Save you a ton of trying to write
that stuff yourself. Just a thought.

Use WordPress blog at alentus.com

It looks like Alentus just started supporting WordPress weblog for about $6 a month. WordPress is awesome. Tons of free plug-ins. I really like the wysiwyg plug-in that makes posts really easy.

http://www.alentus.com/hosted-applications/wordpress.asp

Alentus seems to have really good service and when you click on their customer showcase, some of their customers are really big companies.

I am doing a blog for a friend that I just started using WordPress for it so don't expect much.

http://www.friendsofshelly.com

The plug-ins are listed at various places like:

http://wiki.wordpress.org/Plugin

http://wp-plugins.net/

Sorry to sound over enthusiastic, but I have never used a weblog before and WordPress is great.

Cya,
