Best Place to Host ASP.NET Applications

[samadams_2006]

Hello,

There seem to be so many places out there to host asp.net Web
Applications I figured I had better put an article on this forum to get
some advice. Basically I have an asp.net Web Application that I'm
interesting in Hosting on the Web. I'm planning to offer a training
video subscription service for users. They will pay me a certain
amount per month, and after I have processed their credit card, they
will have access to my download area. From the download area they will
be able to download the training videos that I create. The whole
application will be developed in vb.net and asp.net (perhaps some C#
..net). Is there any good Web Hosting Company out there that offers
this service, has a good reputation, and a decent price as well?
Please indicate the company, and the name of the option that will best
suit this purpose.

Any suggestions are helpful.

Thanks.

Hello Sam,

I use GoDaddy for my web host, and I am satisified with it overall;
although it seems that it is slow at times (but I took the cheapest
plan).

However, I think that you may be better off buying and setting up a
server of your own in some kind of a datacenter environment.

The reason I say this is because with things like Training Videos, you
might end up requiring a lot of space and the price of space goes up a
lot with web hosts.

Maybe you should do the math and see which would be cheaper for you in
the long run.

Hello,

Thanks for the input...

This sounds rather involved. I'm afraid I don't know much about it.
Any place I could go to find out more about this sort of thing?

Thanks...

I recommend you going through http://www.asp.net/Hosters . It contains
details of asp.net hosters across the world. You can also check in the
