Where do you get your web hosting?

I'm curious, if people don't mind me asking, where does everyone get their webhosting? I've been interested since I tried to give some to people and a lot of people ended up turning me down after they had said it was a good idea. TTYL.

Re: Where do you get your web hosting?

Many people host webpages at different places. I'll refer you to a thread earlier this year regarding personal webpages. It brings up many sites that host people. If you're trying to host people but they end up turning you down, make sure you're being reasonable about your hosting, and find out if someone has a better deal than you. Otherwise, let people come to you.

Re: Where do you get your web hosting?

Last spring we bought a domain and signed up with www.1and1.com. They have a $4.99 / month package, but I chose the $9.99 / month package b/c our team wanted an online forum. We needed database support (mySQL) and the linux server that was running the old forum off our HS's cablemodem wasn't really reliable enough. (they like to turn things off every once and a while at school) :-)

I'm VERY hapy with 1and1.com. Easy to use, fast and so far VERY reliable. plus they have TONS of stuff included in all their packages.

Re: Where do you get your web hosting?

www.bluehost.com Good value and the best support I have seen at the pricepoint ($8/month for 2GB and 75GB transfer). I have the team account and two small business clients of mine hosted on it.

Re: Where do you get your web hosting?

www.splicehost.com

I'm paying $30 a year for 75 megs, unlimited bandwidth within reason, and the domain...plus all of the goodies to run PHPBB and all those things I never fiddle with.

And webmail. I <3 webmail.

Re: Where do you get your web hosting?

If you're not so website-savvy, I've found that www.freewebs.com is a good site that is #1-free for web hosting and #2-allows you to put the content into your site that you want, but they give you premade formats and whatnot. You can also do a site with all your own coding and just have them host it for you

Re: Where do you get your web hosting?

I run my own server =D.
In my experience, I've had best results with GoDaddy - They're reliable, fast, and cheap -- about 4 dollars a month for 500 mb of space, 25 gigs of bandwidth, 100 email accounts, and much more. Also, Netacore, is a pretty good service, it costs a bit more ($8 a month) but you get 2.5 gigs of space, unmetered bandwidth and email accounts, and all the other assorted features. And you can host two domains.

Re: Where do you get your web hosting?

I too run my own site. Thus unlimited bandwidth, limited to HD space I want to put on it and with my isp they guarnatee me my speed. And I got my url through 1and1 mentioned above, cost only about $3.00 I think. but in this case the internet connection costs more than hosting ($109/month)

Re: Where do you get your web hosting?

www.alpinerobotics.com is hosted at totalchoice hosting. We have the silver package, which is rather cheap and comes with no limits on just about anything but bandwidth and disk space. This has served us well for the past year, with only one short outage that we were quickly notified of. We also bought the domain through their process, which goes to secureserver.net, which was not the cheapest possible, but it integrated nicely and we were up and running quickly.

I also host my own website on my computer, but since I only have cable, the upload rate (and therefore download for everyone else) is too slow for any major website.

Re: Where do you get your web hosting?

My personal website (davedelong.com) is hosted by StartLogic. I would recommend them to anyone. They have fantastic support, and fabulous hosting plans. For example: Domain name, 60GB bandwidth (I run a software company and I use maybe 15 GB a month), 2 GB storage, CGI executable directory, databases, applets, templates, site statistics, unlimited email accounts (50MB each), and much much more. And they have excellent prices, too. The plan I listed above is only $7.50 a month (I think they have a promo where you get the first 3 months for $1 if you sign up for a year). Yeah. So choose StartLogic. They're the best.

Dave

Hey guys, I'm looking for some advice. I've looked into this hosting company, they even got ranked #5 on this review site ( http://www.hosting-buyers-guide.com/re/2005ipowerweb/ ).

I'm building a site that's gonna have alot of pictures and video, so I'll need alot of space and speed, so has anyone used this host before?

Thanks.
