Hello everyone,

I just wanted to quickly post about In-Motion Hosting (inmotionhosting.com). Since the first day I started using Drupal, I had always found it to be very slow and for the longest time I thought it was my fault; too many modules installed, etc..

My previous host was startlogic.com, I had been using them since around 2004-2005. Originally they were a smaller hosting operation with fantastic support and excellent hosting services. After some reading here at drupal.org I found that Startlogic had been bought out by a larger company, whom had purchased several other hosting services as well (I forget the company name at the moment). All of the hosts that were bought out by this company were reported to be degrading at a steady rate, in all areas.

After some consideration and research I decided to try In-Motion and that is the reason I am posting today. The instant that I moved all of my site's files and databases to In-Motion and pointed the domain at their nameservers, it was like night and day. The website is currently located at silencefading.com/drupal, but will soon move to a different URL. It is extremely fast now and I just want to thank In-Motion for providing not only excellent hardware but an excellent customer service experience so far. I certainly hope we have a long future ahead of us; the hosting world definitely isn't what it used to be.

Thanks for taking the time to come and tell us all!

Just to plug the gap in your memory: StartLogic was bought out by Endurance International Group, who own... quite a few hosting companies.

Right,the server speed of IMH is pretty promising. I am using both their Shared Hosting and VPS now but haven't tried out their dedicated server.
