Hosting Advice

[Anyanka]

Wondered if anyone could offer me some advice in regards to hosting? I'm looking for a good package with fantastico that will allow me to host a few domains for a reasonable price.

Any ideas much appreciated.

Have a look at Meirhosting's Resellers package. I'm with them for multiple domain hosting from £6.50 monthly for US hosting and £7.99 for UK hosting.

My only advice is to not shop on price alone. Look for customer service, a phone number (go ahead & call, to see if the phone actually gets answered) and such. Paying a little bit more every month is much easier than moving your website 3 times in a year because you can't find a competent hosting provider.

I'm not saying the previous recommendation is a bad one - I don't know the company - but my advice is based on experience. I went through 3 dedicated servers in one year, now paying 10 times what I originally paid as my monthly fee, just to have the quick customer service - and it's well worth it!

Good luck,
Eric

These guys are fantastic and cheap,
have been with them a couple of years, very responsive with problems.

I have used clook.net for some sites and they have been pretty good so far. They have a whole range of pre-install scripts via fantastico. Cost is reasonable too.

I take it your only scripting language requirement will be php?

I'm with both Meir Hosting and Clook - both give excellent support and I'm happy with them. Clook cost a bit more and give more bandwidth and space, so it depends on your needs, really.

Thanks everyone. I went for Meir hosting - had a few glitches but found their support team to be very helpful and fast with repsonses.
