Hosting

[Ormo]

Who do you guys use for webhosting?

I'm looking to change my hosting and am wondering what people use out there. My site will be redesigned so I'm fairly flexible as to specs but I would like:

• Decent amount of space
• Reasonable bandwidth for a small site and to allow for growth in the future
• PHP & MySQL
• private CGI-bin would be nice
• POP mail
• Domain hosting

So if you have found a good, reliable, cost effective host, please post and let me know. Likewise if there is anyone I should avoid, post and let me know!

Thanks!

A friend of mine has a friend who owns this company, I haven't heard anything bad about it and I'm actually considering changing to this host.....btw, never ever go with yahoo or geocities, they are horrible.

Yeah, I'm thinking paid hosting here, not free stuff. I've had my fill of free stuff

I have a reseller account at surpasshosting.com. They are great with incredible prices and every feature I can think of.

www.netrillium.net is what I use right now. I'm very satisfied!
I've also used www.phpwebhosting.com if it's still around. That worked well. Oh, and www.cyberpixels.com was good to me while I was there as well!

I am my own webhost! So I use my own services.

I use fluxservices (www.fluxsrevices.com). It's really inexpensive. $7.95 a month gives you:

500mb of space
20gig transfer/month.
2 databases (chioce of MySql or PostgreSQL)
I think 2 subdomains
Unlimited e-mail adressess.
PHP enabled
Private cgi-bin
A few web apps/cgi's including messageboard (choice of two, uses one of your databases), shopping cart, chat room, etc.
A really easy to use and intuitive control panel.

Their support is really good too, I needed shell access to the domain I put in a ticket and had access in under an hour. Their uptime is really good too. I don't think my site has been down for any significant amount of time.
