Railo hosting making ColdFusion cost less...

If you are after learning / developing ColdFusion based websites but cant afford the high costs of ColdFusion why not use Railo 3.1 to host your cfml / cfc scripts with the power of LxAdmin to back it up. With Railo you can use most of the CF tags with extras tags created by the Railo team to create even faster loading and more interactive websites.

We have picked LxAdmin for handling Railo on our servers due to its low preformance requirements and its easy to use interface. Similar to cPanel in many ways, this control panel allows you to manage every part of your website hosting without advance knowledge of hosting.
