Greetings all!
At http://www.OrishaHosting.com
you'll find a special service for "our
kind of people" (grin)!
I've opened a pretty good web hosting service, which doesn't spout
nonsense about 2000 GazillionBytes of disk space or 3000
QuadrupillionBytes of bandwidth. Such numbers are based on
"overselling", meaning that if even ten percent of clients try to use
their full quota, the servers go up in flames - if the host hasn't
kicked said clients off long before!
OrishaHosting.com at http://www.orishahosting.com
delivers decent
space and decent bandwidth for decent prices - three packages are
available, ranging in size from the basic "Aleyo" via the bigger
"Aworo" to the fairly large "Oluwo".
All packages have a full control panel (cPanel) and
"Fantastico" (about 50 automatically installable applications like
forms, galleries, content management systems, blogs, chatrooms, e-
commerce etcetera). The differences are mainly in disk space,
bandwidth and number of MySQL databases and such.
This service is for "our crowd" only: I'm not gonna advertise it to
outsiders and make a booming business out of it. This way I can give
my subscribers my full attention with service and help and that sort
of things. It really is for Ifa-Orisha people only... although it
won't be a problem if any of you has a friend or spouse outside the
Religion who wants to use the service too: one or two of those are
welcome.
Right now I am working on a way to include (= offer the option to pre-
install) some specific Ifa and Orisha stuff on the to-be-sold
websites. I haven't completely figured out yet how to do this, but I
wouldn't be surprised if pretty soon for instance "my" expanding
corpus of Ifa texts may have an option for automatic install and
update in the customers' websites.
Special wishes will be considered - I'm thinking about "managed
solutions" for those who need a website but don't have the time or the
interest to put it up and maintain it themselves.
Alright then: have a look! On one or two pages the site still needs a
bit of poli****ng but: everything works! We got the first couple of
clients already!
Be well!
Jaap Verduijn.
