hostgator (Forum tag) en hostgator or amazon ec2: for simple websites (wordpress) pros/cons <p>Hi, :) thank you all for creating this great website!</p> <p>So.. I&#39;m being hired for the first time to create a website and I&#39;m being asked how much to charge... So since it is family I was straigth forward domain name 15$ and hosting 50-70$ a year. Now I&#39;m trying to understand if it&#39;s better to use amazon ec2 or hostgator to host a simple website. When I googled this people were complaining that their sites were being taken down when they hosted videos and their sites used too much cpu. I guess my question is why not post the video in youtube :P&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>So whats the end point what are the advantages of ec2 over hostgator in a simple site that won&#39;t get more than 1000 views in a month.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks again!</p> Support ec2 hostgator wordpress Fri, 14 Sep 2012 06:19:34 +0000 jpcuba 4168 at
