to this review here I moved from another hosting provider to ICDSoft about 18 months ago. I started with one site I was developing for an employer, then two other sites for various groups with which I'm working.
The bottom line seems to be: if you want to do something, and it works within the UNIX framework, well, go ahead. They are very comfortable with content management systems, and provide ample support for PHP/MySQL as well as other systems. They are very clear about maintaining up-to-date distributions of these utilities while recognizing such niceties as needing to provide support for both PHP 4.x and 5.x. Their framework makes it easy to work with subdomains, multiple FTP accounts, and unlimited POP accounts.
But, what I really find amazing is that your first site (which is already a relative bargain at $6/month and an extra $5 for them to register a new domain for you) is the one that will cost you the most. After that, ICD makes it very easy to resell accounts--including to yourself--at stepped discounts. Yes, there are less expensive alternatives, but for the level of customer service, the fast bandwidth, and the possibilities to make good money, I've got nothing but good things to say about this ISP.
