Drupal Servers

A few months ago I was told about a great offer that ChunkHost was having for testing their new Virtual Server hosting. They are currently still having this great offer to Beta test their new Chunk hosting service. A chunk is very similar to a slice which Slicehost offers, where they offer a virtual server within a larger cloud server environment. I have not used Slicehost personally, but several of my colleagues have, and they were quite satisfied with that service.

Currently, I have been using Hostgator as my primary Drupal host for over 1 year. I was blown away by the services they offered. I decided to sign up once I saw the pricing tiers. For what I was currently paying for on 2 accounts from 1 and 1, I was able to get a virtually unlimited account for about $2 more per month. I thought this was the best choice for an aspiring Drupal web developer.

One of the first hosting companies I heard about was 1 and 1 Communications. It was recommended by a coworker, and the pricing was just right for me at the time. I was just getting started on designing better websites with CSS layouts in HTML, and decided to register my own domain. I was then told about the Drupal content management system from another coworker. He explained that all of that tedious coding I was doing for each page by hand, could be handled by the Drupal CMS and that I could style it the way I want. Once I got my domain from GoDaddy, I decided to look into getting a host with PHP and MySQL which Drupal required. It turned out that 1 and 1 had those features in it's beginner package, and that is what my first website hosting company was.
