Web Hosting in Japan – Unbeatable Prices!
W00t, w00t! After many months in agony of local (Japan) web-hosting prices, I have finally found a server farm worth it’s dime.
They are Tsukaeru.net, they’re located out in Nagano, and they’re run by an Aussie – which means English support! They have a massive data-center all for themselves, and their prices are comparable to what you find in the U.S.
If you need Japan-local hosting for latency reasons, want price / service ratios you see in the U.S., and don’t mind English service and support to boot, you can’t do any better than these guys.
If you sign-up for a dedicated server now, you even get an iPod Shuffle to boot! :) If you’re as excited as I am about this and feel even an inkling of gratitude, be sure to use the link above when you sign up!

Nagano? What sort of network connectivity do they have out in Nagano?

It’s not so much the price that I find painful in Japan, it’s the state of the art way of operation, for instance with NTT hosting to get a new subdomain set up one has to apply by fax! (anecdote courtesy of christophe).

I think all Japanese should connect their machines to their FTTH, setup a server and re-sell to poor Americans who must endure US broadband. :)
