Hi Guys,
I'm looking to buy some web space for personal use. I've dealt with a number of cheap webhosts in the past, and they've all been pretty cr*p... surely there must be a good, reasonably priced web host out there!?
If any of you guys could give me some recommendations based on experience that'd be great! any help would be much appreciated :)
Thanks
Dave P
Hmmm maybe this should be moved to 'General Computer Discussion' - my apologies

And as if by magic... poof!
Can't help with your question though! Sorry!
Have you looked at 1&1, Dave. Don't go in for webspace, so I have no idea what they're like, but the email hosting has been OK in the main, though they did have a bad couple of weeks at the beginning of the year.
Cheers Lance :)
Hey Rik, I've just been reading about 1&1 'n they seem to get good press - I might take a punt on these...
I kinda think in this price range all of these companies are much of a much-ness... managed hosting is where it's at, but it costs a fortune! :)

It would be worth asking over on ThinkBroadband, Dave as they have a board dedicated to hosting.
Ah, good thinking Rik - I'll get over there now :)
These 2 are worth a look........

Huge amount of space all the tools and very much cheaper than UK hosting companies,Hostgator have 24/7 free live chat support too.(Usually answer in less than 40 seconds.)

Isn't that anti-Gay language. :o Naughty, naughty. :thup: :pray:
Have you tried www.purplecloud.com ? I've found them very good so far.
I've used www.siteground.com for the past 18 months, I'm just about to renew for a further year if that tells you anything.
Heres a few.

We use 1and1.co.uk at work.
If you got deep pockets then you could also use our other host. rackspace :P
Paul
haha, rackspace is totally out of the question, we have a client @ work who use them... 6k a year is slightly out of my price range ;)
I think I'm gonna plump for 1&1 - I'll let you guys know how it goes... cheers for all of your input! :)
