Post subject: New Server - Advise Request

I am in the process of taking everyone's advise on here and switching servers. I have reviewed some and have come up with 1&1.com because, I like the extras and they are geographically close (Pennsylvania) to me. I am thinking about going with the Business package.

http://order.1and1.com/xml/order/Ho...kOrigin=Hosting

Since, I have never done this before can anyone offer any suggestions or a link to things I should do prior to moving the website. You may also volunteer to do this for me but, I doubt very seriously that I would have any takers......

Thanks,

Dave

Be careful with 1and1! Just check if you have MySQL databases available... When I purchased a hosting pack in 1and1 Spain I realised I had to pay 4.99€ per month for a MySQL database...

I appreciate the tip.

Does anyone else have any thoughts that I should keep in mind?

Time is running out, I have 80MB left on the server. So, I guess I need to get off the pot and make the move in the next day or so.

Thanks,

Dave

christmanrd, please stop using this topic for this kind of infos/reqs.
You can use the OT forum for that, thanks.
