You're absolutely right. Honestly, the hosting recommendation tool is designed more for people that don't know anything about hosting right now. Making good suggestions for developers is hard. It's one of the things that definitely needs improvement.
That said, given what you put in, what sort of recommendation would you expect/want? I have some ideas but I would rather hear yours first before injecting my own opinion.
- dutchbrit 14y agoWell, selecting other - maybe a longer dropdown - entering how many sites (and what kind), bandwidth usage, visitors - rough figures obviously. Some awesome features would be entering X amount of ip's (if you want unique or multiple), and maybe also add something regarding main demographic (should I go for a US provider, Asian, or European). Should I go for a VPS? Or a Dedicated server? I know, it's tricky to calculate all of this - but it'd be awesome! Last but not least, I'd only show these options if someone were to select a checkbox for advanced options.
- ohashi 14y agoThank you for the ideas. I have added them to the feature list. I will see what we can come up with based on your suggestions. The difference between vps/dedicated/cloud is really hard to recommend these days. It's also getting all mixed up, making recommendations even harder. Any ideas on that?
