Im looking for other options , and price is a big selling piontWell Dave,You need to define what you want done in the course of a month of managing this box and what your budget is.Well Dave,
You need to define what you want done in the course of a month of managing this box and what your budget is.
My biggest concern a need for help is some optimization and hardening, maybe a little initial setup help too.
Budget im hoping for the 25-50 rangeHello Dave,
Why not increase your budget and have it as a one time thing, then just have regular checkups every 1-2 months of an hour or so which should lower your overall monthly requirements.Scott.MC makes a good point. Pay a larger fee up front for the initial setup and to get you on your feet. Then, have some maintenance periods every month or so for a short time to make sure everything is still on track. That should cut down some monthly expenses for you.Alright that sounds like some good ideas, can people give me some companies or reliable people?Check WHT wiki : <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.webhostingtalk.com/wiki/Server_managementthere">http://www.webhostingtalk.com/wiki/Serv ... ementthere</a><!-- m --> are some companies which offer management for servers without any control panel , you might want to check some offers here:
