Ohhh.. excuse my ignorance. I did not really notice that BLB had such a bad press in here.
And as you can see behind my member ID I am quite a resident here
I bought some repair bits there in the past and think they were OK.
as looking me into the eye and saying thanks and Bye (not normal in London retail) and I surely will buy there again.
To the IT bit:
I was a freelance allinOne Webdesigner for some years and dare to give some advice:
For a standard setup in PHP & mySQL backend with few page impressions and transfer volume
I highly recommend a mass hoster. They are very cheap and have nice data center with all the backup strategies.
You as a webdesigner can even become a powerseller and nobody notices that someone else hosts it.
I hosted a dozen customers and my own website at 1and1.com. All happy with it and less than a tenner a month for
a setup like at BLB. The server should not be underneath some desk. Its not worth it
Apologies if I hit a wound I honestly just tried to be funny.
But as it seems Germans do not seem to be good at that, somehow they always start a war with it.
A hug is offered...
