Hosting solutions for BT-Server

Hello, Out of respect for the BuzzTouch team, I initially decided to hold my tongue on this subject. But recently I've slightly changed my mind. After seeing so many members here struggle with the setup of BT-Server, I've decided to speak up. I have 10 years experience working for web hosting companies, and I also have a small hosting company that I currently offer services to friends/family and word of mouth. I didn't want to offer such services in this forum, since I didn't want to seem like I was 'advertising' unsolicited. If the BT team is not opposed, I'll be happy to supply an email address for anyone to contact me directly about what I can offer. Without getting too specific, I am able to offer an affordable hosting account suitable for running BT-server, and could also offer installation assistance or full installation service. If the BT team is opposed, then by all means let me know - and disregard this post. I'm simply trying to assist those who are already taking on the burden of learning how to develop mobile applications - to try to help them avoid the frustrations of learning how to host a webserver/mysql database, etc. (and also trying to cut down on related hosting questions in the BT forum, so the team can continue to do what they do best!) Thank you, Chris (stobe)

Stobe, Sounds like a great idea. As long as it's affordable along the lines of HostGator Hatchling plan. Of course needs to be LAMP or WAMP(WIMP).... It will be beneficial to all.

Yes, it would be as affordable as HostGator - except for the fact that there is no such thing as UNLIMITED DATA AND BANDWIDTH. (I will suppress my desire to rant). And yes, it would be LAMP. As soon as I hear back from Dave, I'll be happy to offer more info.

Given David's response to other people who are trying to make some money related to Buzztouch enterprises, I would say go for it! Buzztouch is not in the business of providing hosting solutions to potential users. They are in the business of providing an amazing development platform. If you have a solution that can help more people run that platform, I'm pretty sure he would be all for it! Mark

@ Stobe: Wonderful offer and much appreciated. We don't have a formal relationship with Stobe and don't have a deep understanding of the services being offered. However, we can say that our friend in Fredericksburg has helped countless members for a very long time and we are happy to endorse this post. If you need a host to run your self-hosted control panel on and don't have an existing relationship with another service provider, working out an arrangement with Stobe makes perfect sense and we're happy to do what we can to support this offer.

I'll put together an information page for anyone interested. In the meantime, if you want to send an email to qpapps @ gmail.com, and put re:btserver in the subject line. Let me know what your needs are and I'll get back with you asap. Thanks!
