2015 HG: HELP: Pick-a-grid checklist for the HG: What to consider in choosing a grid for your project
Pick-a-grid checklist for the HG: What to consider in choosing a grid for your project
The best HG grid for you depends on your objectives. Here I list some things that are important to some people. Below the fold, I give some information and useful links for each item. To use the checklist, copy-paste the list into a notepad, delete the items that don’t matter to you, and evaluate any grids you are considering with the remaining checklist.
Do any of these things matter to you?
- Lots of space, low cost?
- Control your own grid, set the rules, maybe low cost
- 24/7 uptime? Commercial grids
- Price
- Reliable backup?
- Traffic to your place?
- Market services
- Promotion of your place on the web
- Export to OAR backup file
- Help/service, problem resolution (fast)
- Infrastructure quality
- Infrastructure performance
- Inworld currency
- Languages other than English
- Life style (eg.LGBT) friendly
- Active community promoting community interests
- Caution
