So many hosting questions come up along the web development journey. Should you host client’s sites for them? Should you use reseller hosting? What company should you host with? Are some really better than others and are all the good ones expensive? All pretty common questions we have to face at some point, so today we're talking about our hosting ups and downs and who we use and why.

We’ve covered hosting in the past but this is the interwebs, and things are constantly changing and evolving ;)
