A Small Orange: A Story in Two Pictures - Acer - 10-16-2024






Nineteen years at ASmallOrange web hosting. Wow, where does time go. Uptime and the few times I needed support were top-notch, no complaints. So when the price started to creep, I'm like, that's OK, I was satisfied.

But the price rise over the last few years...holy moly, Batman.

I've moved on to NameSilo. It's passable, cheap, but very no frills. Not a lot of onboarding automation.

I liked ASO and it worked for me for many years. But the price creep continued. Guess it was because it was eaten up by the EIG conglomerate. I left a number of years ago.
