Is it just me or is it hard to find a link to EngineHosting from within the current ExpressionEngine site?
I did not realize it was that economical, popping over there to check the terms on that then, another light bulb moment.
I can’t wait to get your book Michael, if I don’t get busy then, I’ll have to just make my exodus from the boards here even.

This from a guy who’s been totally hung up with doing the hosting via “in-house” means for even the first client, and “we” don’t even run php (it’s kind of a problem).

A good system admin versed in “open source” and php technologies would be way more then $10 bucks a month.

Really? There are an average of two links per page in the main and mini footer to EngineHosting everywhere except the forums and the wiki.

I forgot it was called enginehosting, try entering expressionengine hosting in the site search or google and see what you get.
Just thought it worth a mention, it’s a mute point then I just missed the bottom links, sorry D.

The average user might not join the two words together.

All the links on this page reference EngineHosting

It’s not in-house.  EngineHosting is a separate company, our partner, part of the EllisLab network.  We have prominent advertising to them in the footer of every page of the site proper, as well as from our store.  That said, your feedback regarding searching for it on our site itself is appreciated, and I ask that we, including me, stop derailing Kurt’s thread. :-D

I really enjoyed this article and seeing people’s responses here in the forum. I can honestly say, I didn’t have an answer for all of the questions right off the top of my head. Great things to think about in case any of the situations ever arise, which I’m sure they will.

I was there on that meeting when the client was already sold on us.  Took Kurt a minute to recover from his shock.  He’d talked to me all day about the sales pitch and how we were going to position ourselves.  We walked in and she just wanted to get going with it right then and there.  smile

Building that kind of reputation takes some time, but its a beautiful thing once you have gotten there.
