Hi there,
I am just about to launch a new company which is based around Joomla and VM.

The company will be installing a minimum of 2 new joomla installs per week.

The Joomla installs will be Joomla 1.5.10 and VM 1.1.3

My Questions are,
Who do you use for your hosting?
How do you manage updating all your templates and Joomla Installs?
How do you manage security on all your sites, incase of hackers.

I want to try and find a dedicated Joomla Host who will update all my Joomla installs automatically, thus saving me time updating all the installs.
I estimate after the first year I will have over 100 Joomla Installs, so you can understand I need to try and find an automatic way to keep all the installs up to date.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Kindest Regards,
Reders

I doubt you will find that. It also makes poor business sense to me.

You are far better of with a dedicated server or servers of your own (depending on load etc.

That will cost you far less than buying loads of dedicatd joomla accounts which will in the long run be much harder to manage.

Updating joomla isn’t really that hard. It would probably cost less for you to employ a student on a temp basis to do all the upgrades for you.
