Windows shared hosting - recommendations?
Hi,

I'm looking for Windows shared hosting but I'm having problems finding one that meets my needs.

I'm working on a new site which requires audio and video streaming. It's being developed in ASP.NET so requires Framework 3.5, AJAX and Silverlight.

It also needs one MSSQL database and it has to be possible to connect to the database remotely for development work.

And the host needs to have a suitable low-cost plan that can be paid on a monthly basis with PayPal.

Phew! No wonder I'm having problems ...

Anyway, although the host needs to be able to provide audio and video streaming, there shouldn't be a great deal of bandwidth usage but it's only going to be used as a development and testing server. The final site will undoubtedly require a couple of dedicated servers (a standard web server and a media server).

Thanks

I think you may have Windows shared web hosting from SiberName.com. Prices aren't high. And this company provides in-house support to their clients. have a look at them, hope they are what you are looking for.

I can recommend you have a look at: neowebspace.com or webhostgiant.com. I have been using them and I think that they are one of the best for windows web hosting.

For that I think that considering shared web hosting is not good idea. For this needs I think that VPS is needed at least

It's definitely better to go for a VPS to be in control of the site, but there's another side to it, and this is management...
