Linode Review

My Experience With Linode

A while back I decided to make the jump from shared hosting to a VPS. Shared hosting has many draw backs. The biggest of which is that most shared hosting places throw you on a box with 100's of other websites. If anyone of those sites has something go wrong many times it causes your site to crash or be inaccessible. Running a Drupal site I had this happen many times. Someone else would hammer the MySQL database and it would make my site not work.

I just switched rundrupal.com over from a shared hosting plan to a VPS through Linode. It costs a little more but I get full control over the server and the uptime should be much better. Unless I don't do a good job setting everything up. I'll be giving updates on this site as to how the process goes. Right now I have this website running well on it and I'm in the process of getting all the email stuff set up. Here's hoping that all works out.

I hate having to click no thanks to all their extra "features" they want to sell me. I'm also pretty annoyed with the way they run their advertisements.
