[postgis-users] PostGIS hosting?

[Craig Miller]

The difference in price is ~$20/mo for shared hosting vs. ~$140 for a hosted
solution.

I have a very low bandwidth application (demos), and would prefer a shared
solution for this.  I guess if I could find 5-7 other people I might be
willing to setup a dedicated server.  I don't want to get into the paperwork
associated with a coop though.

Hello Craig,

Just a thought, but from what you said you wanted in a hoster, it might be
more practical if you bought a server and just payed to have your server
hosted at any established (local?) ISP. Else, you can try to find a
fledgling
hosting company that wouldn't mind going that extra mile to get new clients.
I
asked an acquaintance of mine, who hosts on Windows servers, if he new of
anyone, but the answer was, "No, and what is PostGIS and GeoServer?". Anyone
else have any "inside" contacts?
