    Can anyone suggest a hosting company that supports frontpage and forms that does not have hidden upcharges and service outages and half ass support?
    Please do not recommend the following crappy companies.
    dialtoneinternet.net idiots
    hostgator.com don't support fp features
    hostcentric.com morons don't support fp features
    lunarpages.com idiots and rip off and read http://www.diagnose-me.com/sucks/lunarpages.html

    I'd recommend micfo.com, the best hosting company I have used. Trouble tickets are replied to in less than 5 minutes, and since my top priority has always been getting quick and decent custommer support I was really happy with them.

    I am an American and do not believe in out sourcing. I don’t deal with over seas companies. If this guy is legitimate or even a US citizen then why not have his company registered here in the USA as a Corporation or a DBA?

    I just guess for Tax reasons. Not paying any TAXES at all as an over seas company as a LLC. And an address at a hotel for a company location?

    OH add BIZLAND to the crappy FrontPage hosting companies the acquired hostcentric.com shared hosting.

    And right now hostgator seems to on top of all them for FP hosting, they are way better then:

    dialtoneinternet.net idiots
    bizland don't support fp features
    hostcentric.com morons don't support fp features

    Check out Parcom.net. Before I got my virtual server, I had nearly 50 domains hosted with them and they never had any down time or any other problems. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for reliable, affordable web hosting.

    Nice.
    http://parcom.net/
    and you get
    Parcom Internet Services : $3.75 750 MB : Since 1997 : High Quality Web Hosting and Domain Registration Services

    Now directing you to our new web site. Please click this link if you are not automatically re-directed: http://hosting.parcom.net

    I guess they don't know what they are doing or just want people to think they don't know what they are doing.
    Really an unprofessional page.
    I guess they don't know how to use htaccess to send people to
    http://hosting.parcom.net/ a subdomain.

    Hosting Frontpage is a little difficult that what a lot of hsting companies put in. I would suggest a Windows server. We used Hostway prior to starting our own hosting and we were happy with their services and support.

    I have been working with some form of Frontpage or another since 1996 so that seems to help with us when make sure everything is up to date

    Frontpage does have some problems but all WYSIWYG editors do. FP is very easy for some people to operate which makes it easy for people to get a website up and running. FP has come a long way since Frontpage Express.

    FP itself is fine, it's a decent WYSIWYG editor, for sure. It's just the server-side stuff it does that makes it a nightmare. If you could design a site in FP, and then upload it in a normal way it would work fine.
