CS New Media. I'm sure they're around on here, plus you used to get 25% off for being an EduGeeker. They've been rock solid for me so far and get back to you quickly.

Our website has run on PlugSocket for a year without a problem. No downtime so as we've noticed.

CS New Media gets my vote, Carl's been top notch.

ok plenty of options there

if i redirect the schools domain name to the hosting company, will it effect my emial, mydesktop, and mydesktop?

By redirect, do you mean changing the IPS Tag?

In theory, all you need do is create (or change) the A record for www to point to the IP of the new webhosting company.

[PEO]

whats an A record?

[kmount]

Address Record See here

Put simply, it is what's needed to translate www.yourdomain.com into IP 1.2.3.4.

If you have Email etc already set up on the domain, it will already have several A records, and certainly some MX (Mail Exchangers).

Might be worth PM'ing me or posting the domain name so we can point you in the right direction.

pm on the way

Replied to your PM with what would appear to be a solution in my eyes.

Just make sure you find a provider that gives you plenty of notice about IP address changes
