Hi! I am working for a web hosting company and we are currently developing new dedicated and managed hosting plans. I would like a bit of feedback about what people are looking for and expect from a managed hosting provider. Such as what managed services are most important to you?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Candice (or anyone),

I am looking for a hosting (pay/no banners) package that includes preinstalled scripts (plug-n-play). List management, greeting card, forum, link directory management, stats, and a shopping cart.

Inexpensive is good, not looking for a free host with banners, etc. Small site now, want to stay with the same host as the site grows.

I am not a programmer. I use JS, CSS, and DTML but not serious coding. I hope to find a host with a great control panel.

Cheers,

When I was looking for web hosting apart from my requirements (php, mysql ...) price was a big factor, as I'm an international user I have to take in consideration exchange rates and things. Sorry its not much help.

for the record m6 did get into my short list
