I am seeking a windows hosting service to host asp.net application in framework3.5 and Sql server 2005. I m not sure about how to assess the reliability of various hosting services. Moreover I can only afford shared hosting( not more than 10$/month). What are the options?
Any Windows host should be able to provide that easily. You might want to consider MS SQL 2008 rather than 2005 because that's the most recent version of MS SQL. As for reliability, your best bet is recommendations from other people.
I'd recommend you to deal with the company that has narrow specialization in delivering windows hosting services.
