      The only point of contention I see is that Scott used to recommend a company that I believe he had no involvement with at all - ASO, Vultr, etc (though maybe he owns stock in them, works for them, not sure - but I assume not).

      Now, Scott is recommending a vendor that he does own. Does that mean it's bad, of course not, but the question is, will Scott ever recommend other solutions, assuming they are better than his?

        I do see what you are saying. If I had went to the site and it was actively accepting sign-ups it would be a little more scandalous and maybe an apology would be in order.

        However, I have been involved in a startup that flat lined before it could produce any results went down in a blaze of glory, and later I wish I had kept my name out of it. Even though it was originally my bright idea.

        So I see it as a testing of the waters, proceeding with caution, as opposed to the type of fake accounts and marketing that sometimes often emerges in forums.

          I am about to sign up for an Envato site, but would like to get setup on Hostadillo instead if that is an option.

          That would be awesome. Definitely.

            I'll just make sure that they aren't better 🙂

              If you are an MSP and you suck are you going to recommend someone else? Not trying to be a dick but I know of no company ever that would tell you they suck and recommend another company.

                This was kinda my point.

                  What about a Hostadillo vs Dreamhost?

                  I paid Dreamhost a year up-front, but after that, I may consider Hostadillo if the pricing is better, and there are only benefits to moving and no disadvantages over Dreamhost.

                    @dashrender There was another part to that which was a quote of Scott's post

                    I do know Scott was up front when I asked if it was his hosting site. He said that he wasn't able to find something that provided what he was looking for so he went out and made his own.

                      Good time for me to declare I am affiliated with...

                      Big Bear's VoIP and Tackle Supply Company

                      😉

                        Actually maybe I will go on record as having no affiliation with Big Bears VoIP and tackle. The exposure from the scandal could be well worth it...

                          The two are a bit different. So a key question would be what kind of hosting do you need. Hostadillo is a more "full management" site by site platform. Dreamhost I think is more of a "pay for capacity do it yourself" host.

                            So, tounge in cheek question, do you curl up into a ball when trouble comes along?

                            I'd also like to point out that the recent flappery regarding this mob would say otherwise.
