web hosting
hi guys,
i have a small site and for a whie it has been hosted by *cough* tripod (there i said it) anyway i want to move into the world of no pop ups/ads etc and i am looking for a good cheap host.
dont need much 1gb bandwidth, 100mb couple of email accounts.
also i need to register a name, will probably get a .net as maybe this will be better when we are in aus?
any advice out there?

Please take a look at my site www.jeztechs.com and head for Hosting. I offer three plans, 2 of them include a Free .com Domain name.

www.msspro.com – 250Mb, 25 e-mail accounts, FTP, PHP, FrontPage, cgi … US$3.33 per month. Bargain
Or www.oneandone.co.uk 500Mb, 100 e-mail accounts, CGI. GBP4.99 per month. Not sure about FrontPage support though.

Take a look at www.pulsfact.com £2.99 pm or £29pa 50 Mb's space and 500 Mb's download.
They do other plans. I have used them for a long time. You get your own control panel etc. They support just about everything. FTP, PHP, FrontPage, cgi. No minimum contratc. Have not had any problems and best of all support is quick and better than fantastic. I dont usually put all eggs in one basket, but these are so good I host all my domains with them split across different servers.
For domain name I use www.easily.co.uk they look after DNS you just point to your chosen server. This gives the security that if your host goes bust or you have problems its easy to repoint the domain to your new server within 48 hours, If your host has domain name and anything happens, it can be a major drama getting it sorted. I found out the hard way. !!
If I were you I would go for the .com rather than .net just preference more than any other reason, I think peeps first choice is always the .com .co.uk
