# New hosting

## New hosting

If you’re reading this it means my transfer over to new hosting at [Dreamhost](http://www.dreamhost.com) is complete.

I have been looking for a new host to serve this site, and a number of clients. Having had a trial run with [Webfusion](http://www.webfusion.com)‘s reseller package, I was disappointed with the lack of functionality it offered (eg not supporting .htaccess).

So when I saw a recommendation from [Neville Hobson](http://www.nevillehobson.com/2006/06/15/try-dreamhost/) I thought I’d check Dreamhost out.

So far I’ve been really impressed with the customer service (quick and friendly) and the control panel (very powerful and flexible).

Based on my experience to date I’d thoroughly recommend them.

\[as with Neville, no hidden referral links ec above, but if you want the affiliate link, [here it is](http://www.dreamhost.com/r.cgi?200408)\]
