also, I wouldn't like to pay 10$ for a Gb of over overlapped transfer.;)

if you are going to be running an adult site you will probably want a dedicated server. If you aren't familiar with administering a webserver, I recommend you get a "managed" dedicated server. You will not find too many reputable hosts that will jump on the opportunity to host an adult site in a shared environment....for good reason. Adult sites pose many risks.

I realize that you only want to spend $25/mo., however, be prepared to get what you pay for. If you are looking for someone to manage a dedicated or semi-dedicated environment for you, expect to pay upwards of at least $75/mo. If that is a problem, you may want to axe the adult content as that will throw up a red flag for any host. Adult sites fall under constant attack as well as generally abuse bandwidth. If I were you I would find a host that specialized in security as well

actually, I will run a remotely hosted script site for a little circle of webmasters. I do not want to gain hundreds of users. Not actually at least. As soon as I have some revnue I will buy a dedicated.

I said I need to be allowed for adult content because I am planning on starting one.

I tried out some adult free hosts but they are all crap :bawling: so I need a decent host at least to get the first visitors and to develop the site.

If really the adult content is all that bad...well, I think I can get rid of it. I will get on with free hosts till I have some revenue with the other site. Actually I am only a university student and I don't have a lot to spend on.;)

here it is again:

any suggestion?
It would be better if I could have the capability to install custom ASP components on the server by asking the admins for review, but this is optional.

Thanks for helping:)

be EXTREMELY cautious of ANY host that offers "unlimited" bandwidth or transfer. These things are NOT and never will be unlimited for them, so how exactly can they be for you?

I know, but there is always something written about limitations on the TOS. I will take a look.
