you're welcome!
Well, just a quick update to say that one year on, I renewed my single domain account with dotable.
To be honest I have a very low bandwidth need -- mainly emails for the first year, although have now started a very basic wordpress family page and am using IMAP/webmail more. I'm a pretty low-demand client in that respect -- I use nowhere near the bandwidth I could and don't need support much, as my issues are mainly trying to figure out cPanel and so on from the perspective of a newcomer. As a bit of a compulsive diyer, I tend to figure these issues out myself.
sometimes I browse around and see what others are offering -- 1TB storage, 10TB bandwidth for $5.95 a month and so on. Seems too good to be true, which means it probably is. And then a search reveals horror stories about overselling, overloaded servers, downtime, fly-by-night operations with dubious practices. Dotable, on the other hand, seems to have a refreshingly normal business model.
I also feel happy not sharing space with adult sites.
I can't claim speak from the perspective of a heavy user, but I certainly wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dotable to someone like me looking for a safe spot for a personal site. Dotable has been a safe choice, and just one less thing in life to worry about.
cheers, stefan
