What are some of the best shared/vps hosting solutions for windows platform. I'm looking for something similar to webfaction/linode but for windows/.net.
If you need to just host a .NET website, there's Azure Websites [0], which has a free plan.<p>[0] <a href="http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/home/scenarios/web-sites/" rel="nofollow">http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/home/scenarios/web-sites/</a>
Have a few Hyper-V VPSs running with Ultima Systems (<a href="http://www.ultimasystems.net" rel="nofollow">http://www.ultimasystems.net</a>) for a while. Been great so far.
Here are some decent options:<p>- <a href="https://appharbor.com/" rel="nofollow">https://appharbor.com/</a><p>- <a href="http://www.rackspace.com/cloud/public/servers/pricing/" rel="nofollow">http://www.rackspace.com/cloud/public/servers/pricing/</a><p>- <a href="http://aws.amazon.com/windows/" rel="nofollow">http://aws.amazon.com/windows/</a><p>- <a href="http://www.hostgator.com/windows-hosting" rel="nofollow">http://www.hostgator.com/windows-hosting</a><p>AppHarbor is not a VPS, it's managed application hosting, so you don't get to touch the server itself. However, I found it to be a breeze to work with. Very easy to build an ASP.NET MVC app and quickly get it into production. They are basically managing the EC2 hosts and sharing them among their customers. HostGator is also not a VPS, it's shared application hosting.<p>I don't think there's anything as cheap as Webfaction.
