Foreign Hosting in recent years gained a huge popularity among the Russian webmasters and I, too, one of those who prefer their projects for hosting the United States. Over the past 8 years that I have been doing saitostroitel'stva I had to work with dozens of web hosting companies - Russian, German, American, and even Ukrainian. Why I do not like the Russian hosting? Well, the main complaints I have two - often become unstable server (website unavailable), and system administrators are not qualified enough, for example, they can easily upgrade your version of PHP at the same time replacing all previous settings. As a result, the project begins to sharp return errors, and you (or I), respectively - swearing rude words to the Russian host.
Foreign Hosting deprived of such shortcomings, because the large American web hosts are not served by a thousand, not ten, but hundreds of thousands of websites. Hosting Web Sites is the business that Americans do better than anyone else the world. I will try to tell you about the best foreign hosting for your site!
