I'm not looking to spend a ton of money on this. And I'm not demanding zero downtime, I just need better than I've got.

Maybe I just need to swap providers to one with a better uptime record, like Todd's suggestion.

But reaching back to my (dusty) techy days, can't I set up a primary and secondary DNS to point to two different servers? Thus providing a fallback in the event the primary server is down.

Two $10/mos shared host plans that mirror each other, and the proper DNS configuration and I'm done? Am I totally off base?
