EXPERIENCE THE "HOST'S" HOSPITALITY

Carl Burnham's "Web Hosting" is a fine piece. It has the essential ingredients that will improve your Web structuring ability: whether you are an amateur or a professional. His methods, as well as strategies, seemed success-bound. Although that there is no guarantee in any Web venture, I will not rate this book low.

excellant coverage of web hosting for IT and businesses

This book covers alot of territory, from covering the many types of web hosts, to infrastructure and security considerations (including example policies and procedures), domain registrars, to enhancing customer service and support, developing hosting partnerships, to becoming a reseller. I especially liked the comparison of different technologies, in an easy to understand way. For businesses, it provides an indepth coverage of the market, types of technologies (ASP, JSP, PHP, etc.) and how to decide on the type of web host(s) that will best meet their business goals. Is filled with online references, and a handy appendix section. Recommend highly as a resource guide for IT consultants, web host newbies and professionals, and businesses.
