View Full Version : I need a host...
lucasg 06-25-2001, 02:22 AM ok I dont really need much, so give me your lowest possible estimate...if the site grows, I'll upgrade the servers, and I'm always loyal to a good webhost.
here are my minimum specs:
- 40MB disk space
- 4GB monthly bandwidth
- CGI, and PHP (php not necessary)
- POP3 Email account
- Fast Server (I've recently signed up for a server that is tooooo slow - I now require a demonstration)
- control panel (I love a nice control panel)
- catch all email fowarding
alright that's all fellas...
I live in Australia, but I'm looking for a US based (doesn't have to be) webhost.
I'm happy to pay 6 months advanced...providing everything looks good. :)
one more thing..unix server, I dont like NT! :)
ok thanks

kickster 06-25-2001, 03:59 PM Few tips:
The lowest priced plans do not always cost you less! If the server is slow or down all the time you will lose
your regular visitors. Moving all the files and setting up all the scripts on a new server also cost time. So when you
decide on a host consider their server speed, reliablity and customer support.
True hosting cost for what you are asking is about $9 per month.
You should seriously consider
hostrocket.com 9.99/month
f5hosting.com 9.99/month
and if you want the ultimate reliablity go for Futurequest and pay a bit extra for it. $14/month
If your site is not very important and you simply want to park the domain then go for the lowest possible price
One host offers $15 for one year, cant beat that! I think they are called 9kdnet or something not too sure.
nexzt 06-25-2001, 09:23 PM Linux or NT
500megs of storage, unmeetered bandwidth..(unlimited as long as your not taking LARGE amounts per second.. i.e 8MB/sec)
The specs are
SSI,
SSH
PHP
CGI
FrontPage Ext.
MySQL
Unlimited Email,
unlimited Mailing Lists
25 user/ftp accounts
Anonymous FTP (extra $5/month + that gives a STATIC ip)
+ much more goto http://www.ntidesign.com/cobaltspecial.php and check out the other small stats.
edude 06-25-2001, 09:29 PM You can't aim that post at hosts who charge cheaper prices. They do offer customer support, quality service and no downtime! There is something called *specials* they last for 1 month. Please do some research before generalising.
Kindest Regards,
ValuableHost
