Requirements? Shared or dedicated? Server side scripting language (ASP, Perl, PHP, Python)?

I'm not sure what you mean by shared or dedicated, but I assume since I will be using my own domain it will be dedicated, right? Last edited by Nate the great; 08-12-2009 at 08:37 PM. |

I've used Arvixe for years and they've been very reliable with excellent customer support. $40/year if you pay by the year, which includes a domain. They have practically everything in terms of space, bandwidth, and features.

There have been quite a few cases where I've had a question and received instant support either from the forums or live chat. They've gone so far to search the internet to find a web application for me, install programs on their server that I needed, and add complimentary upgrades to my account. For example, I signed up quite a while back under an old plan that offered 100 MB storage + 1 GB bandwidth for $30/year. Now I still pay $30 a year (the old rate) but they've given me all of the new features! (unlimited) They also restored my account from a backup once for me when my site was taken down by hackers due to a bug in my old (unpatched) blog software. Plus, they have lots of scripting extras (if you need them) for which most other hosts charge extra.

I pay $4/month at Total Choice Hosting, been using them for many years, and have never had any issues.

When “cheap web hosting” goes into mind, many people think that there is no way that a cheaply priced web hosting could give them excellent service and quality. Although there are some providers that offer cheap web hosting and do not give high returns, cheap web hosting with excellent quality does exist.
If you really consider the price of a web hosting, it is a good idea to consider cheap web hosting that offers the same level of services compared to more expensive hosting packages. However, don’t just grab any cheap web hosting deals just yet. Thanks for sharing... ___________________ Affordable & Reliable Web Hosting |

I use HostGator & HostPC. Hostgator has a 20% off coupon for your initial order. Been real happy with both, but prefer HostGator more. Tried 1&1 annd didn't like them.
