    Aloha,

    Anybody using Hostony for their .NET sites.

    It looks good, 300GB for $7/month... put performance seems to be quite an issue.

    I have uploaded my site, but it often takes 30+ second for it to load a page :(

    The issue might be caused by the connection to the MySql server - the calls from my .NET code to the database often times out :(

    Performance probably is an issue, be careful of hosts that offer extreme resources for cheap prices. Look for a quality host that loads fast, answers your pre sales questions in a timely manner, and has good reviews throughout the internet

    Any recommendations?

    I need ASP.NET 2.0 and MySql. Multiple domains would be nice, but it's not essential.

    I use Site5 as my Linux host, but some of my new sites require ASP.NET to run (They ended being written in ASP.NET since I'm far better in that language than PHP)

    I'm glad to report that Hostony stinks - don't use it!
