We've been experimenting with it, and recently switched over to a hosting cluster instead of individual servers. It's helped out uptime, and speed quite a bit. We recently rolled out plans as low as $4.95 a month, (our old min was $10 a month), I was wondering if anyone could browse around and give us some comments. thanks, Ben congleton Netherweb Hosting :: Http://www.netherweb.com :: Clustered hosting from $4.95 a month

Clustered hosting ... well if you can afford it and need the extra uptime then fine. P.S Please dont advertise your hosting packages in this forum - if you want to advertise then use the advertising forum. Out of interested how did you find the url for this forum? I have not completely set up the forum yet and have not linked this page with my website yet so i was surprised to see that i allready had someone sign up.

So lets say server A goes down it will still be up and run off of Server B. It also helps to distribute server load. Your plans do look pretty nice. Are you getting a lot of sales ?

As far as I know my host has always done this. I didn't know it was anything special -- I thought everyone did it.
