Sometime ago my ex-hosting company announced that they are broken. They gave me about 30 days time to move my homepage somewhere else. So I did it. I moved my page to STRATO AG (www.strato.de). I have chosen STRATO because:

• it is a pretty big company. I hope it will take some time before they disappear
• in their offer they announced: “We support Joomla, Drupal and so on”

unfortunately I had to figure out on my own skin what STRATO understand as “support”:

• that the customer is able to read their FAQ to find out how to change from php4 to php5

• that the customer is able to create its own 'php.ini' files and put it in proper directories

• and finally that the customer know what at all is '.htaccess' file for and that he can make one

Well don't you think that that's quite a lot for a normal 'Customer'? 

And finally the 'cherry on the cake' - PERFORMANCE! You don't want to know how slow Joomla can be. In case lame performance strato is a class of its own. I do hope you will never have to experience that.

What you see now is just a rip made with httrack (http://www.httrack.com/).
