Hi,

I’m looking for a hosting service to host our site. We’re a university  
in central Brazil and our site has an average 3000 pageviews/day.  
Today it’s developed in [ASP.NET](http://ASP.NET) and is hosted internaly. To provide  
more functionalities to our users it was time to put it on a CMS. So,  
What I’m looking for is a good hosting service to host our Radiant  
based site.

Any tip?

Be Radiant!  
Gabriel

Nowadays, everyone says SliceHost because of the awesome  
bang-for-the-buck – honestly I have to agree. The caveat of that is  
you have to configure the system yourself. The other caveat is that  
they are highly in demand and have a large backlog for new slices.

There are numerous hosting companies out there, you just have to pick  
one that’s right for you. When investigating, I would search Google for  
the name of the hosting company and “rails”. There should be a wealth  
of information about what to watch for, where people have problems,  
etc. Also, for a quick but incomplete rundown, read this:

If you want more traditional supported hosting, Segpub (http://  
segpub.com.au) is very good. They have some experience with Radiant  
and are prompt and helpful. It is a bit pricier than some options,  
but by no means expensive. They also have a nice simple control  
panel, making restarts, email, etc very easy.
