Hello all - We're looking for a new Web host. Some requirements are:


FrontPage 2000 Extensions
CGI Access
PHP/MySQL
Stats w/ referrer data (or access to logs)
5+ E-mail accounts
At least 10 GB/month transfer
<$25/month


We're currently serving static HTML and images at about 1 GB/month. We've been growing well over 30% a month since our relaunch in March and we plan to incorporate some CGI and possibly a vBulletin forum sometime down the road. My guess we should get a host which provides at least 10 GB/month transfer with the ability to upgrade.

We're currently looking into Forsite.com as they meet all of these criteria with their silver account. Any opinions on Forsite.com or suggestions for any other hosts that meet these needs? Thanks for your time!

The hosts on this board can give you quotes if you repost this request in the Advertising section.

Otherwise, I've heard good things about Hostrocket.com. :)

Wow! Talk about some quick responses! Thank you. allera - I checked out HostRocket and they look very good. Chaos - Did a search Forsite.com and came across another mention (saw a similar post on another forum) of Forsite simply shutting down a site when bandwidth/CPU Usage limits were met. Not sure I want to deal with that. Gonna look further into HostRocket. Thanks! Any other recommendations?

Hello,

I'm new this this forum, but not to forsite.com. I've been hosting there for about 3 years. I've never had any problems with them. I mostly use e-mail support and that has been very quick.

I've got a silver account. When I signed up (a long time ago) bandwidth was unlimited. Now you get 10 gig with a silver account. Uptime is great.

If you have any quesitons, please feel free to e-mail/IM me.

Frank
