    Yep, they kick much ass. And, they have ZoneEdit's DNS management utilities. All for $35/(2 years).

    As an aside, ZoneEdit will also provide DNS for up to 5 domains for free. I've found their web-based interface to be incredibly easy to use.

  3. Avoid Verizon + Other Advice by CritterNYC · · Score: 2 · on A Port in the Storm for PSINet Customers?

    Personally, I'd recommend *against* Verizon. They don't have a friggin clue when it comes to most internet stuff. I spose they may be able to handle dialup pretty well, but just ask some of the poor folks in the World Trade Center who are stuck in the middle of Bell Atl... uh, I mean Verizon's monopoly and they'll tell a different story. Verizon blames so and so (eg, UUNet, if you have an ISDN line)... so and so blames Verizon. In the end, you're just stuck. When I worked there, the company next door to me had no net access for weeks on end cuz Verizon didn't know their ass from their elbow.

    That said, I'd suggest you consider splitting up net access and web/email hosting. For hosting, go with a company recommened by other folks. Pop online and check them out a bit. Watch out, though... some of the biggest companies have the worst support and technical expertise (example: Interland). For dialup, go with a regular ISP... like Earthlink or something along those lines. Or, even better, a local one. You don't have to worry as much about switching ISPs... since your email is hosted with your website by someone else.

    Best advise I can add to that is... consider using someone entirely different for your DNS services (perhaps Zone Edit). That way, if you do switch web hosts, you control when the switch is made. It makes switching hosts almost painless.
