By the way, if you're interested in signing up for our service, we have a new breed of servers that we're planning on bringing live on wednesday or thursday.  These beast machines are going to be running 25.6 GHZ!

Out of curiosity, how many virtual domains do you allow? It's not listed anywhere that I can see and it's an important peice of info.

My previous experience with WH4L was painfully slow performance and no corrective action.

DNN requires at least 150k of ram dedicated to each instance to run properly with any significant traffic. My guess is WH4L doesn't allow any where close to this.

They like many don't seem to have their business model built on allocating that much memory per client (hence the great price).

Granted, my experience was over a year ago and they may have changed. It was my experience with them that forced me to lease dedicated servers at MaximumASP (expensive and time consuming for sure).

My 2 cents. Good luck.

150k of ram?  I've never seen a DNN instance take anywhere near that little.  On our servers, they generally take between 100M and 600M of ram and we have some that are in the Gig-of-ram stage.

Coming from a competitor, I agree that MaximumASP is good, but we get a fair number of customers from them because they're not DNN specific.  I've heard from a number of customers who have had DNN issues and MaxASP basically told them "go search the forums and figure it out".

I haven't ever tried out MaxASP's dedicated servers so I don't know the software configuration that they give you, but on our servers, we set everyone up as a minature ISP so our server customers are doing things the same way we're doing things, just on a smaller scale.

WH4L is okay if you are doing testing. And they are okay for small sites if you are lucky enough to get on a good server. The SQL server you get on is more importan thna the web server in my experince. I did okay with thme for quite  a while, but then I ran into a problem that they could not seme to solve. I still have an accoutn with them, but I have moved my sites to ServerIntellect that are hosted at a hosting company.
