Well Done, site5
November 25, 2011

Thus far I'm very impressed with the level of service I've gotten from site5. I'm using site5 to host the Ruby on Rails versions of ericbt.com and bjterrell.com.

As a Rails novice I've made numerous support requests, all of which were handled in a timely fashion with thorough professionalism. Since I'm paying less than $9.00 US per month for my shared hosting account, the quality of the support is very impressive. Also, I should add that I even submitted support requests during the USA Thanksgiving holiday, and those requests were handled with the same speed and care given to previous requests.

I haven't yet measured the performance of my websites. I plan to use the Chrome Page Speed extension to determine how well the sites are preforming.

site5's administrative interface is quite comprehensive and easy to use. I am especially impressed with their backup mechanism, and their website traffic reports.
