I am looking for a jost that has shopping cart capabilities and that i can put any kind of content on my site.

I have seen many sites...i have read many web hosts are poor.

I want to open a multimedia site but don't wanna get shafted as they say. I don't wanna pay several hundreds of dollars just to find out after that the host is trying to s***ew with me.

What i need is shooping cart capabilities.

Lots of space.

Lots of space so people can download stuff from my site.

The ability to put any content i desire wihtout any restriction.

Good prices and hosting plans.

Good site tools and security.

Etc etc etc...

I have looked at some articles on bad companies and good companies.

Can anyone tell me if they had any experience with valueweb.com or websmarthosting.com

websmarthosting looks good...with good prices and good features but they have many restrictions.

valueweb.com have basically the same things but are much pricey.....

can anyone give me some pointers based on what i wrote....

any help is really apreciated.

thanks

BOBVILLA.

Ok based on what you're saying space shouldn't be a big issue... If you can fill a few 100 Mb of space with one site then you can always buy more

Re: "lots of space so people can download... " What you mean is bandwidth... ie: the amount of data you can transfer to and from the site per month.

As for the content "no restrictions" does this mean adult hosting, warez? Basically if you're thinking about adult then some hosts will offer that service but you'll pay a LOT for the bandwidth. Warez or other illegal content?... well basically you're in the wrong place... No-one here would openly help with that... (Not that I'm saying you would want to)

websmarthosting looks good...with good prices and good features but they have many restrictions.

valueweb.com have basically the same things but are much priceyBottom line, if you want a good quality, secure service that meets high bandwidth demands, good support,.. basically the whole enchilada, then you'll have to pay for it.

I don't know about those hosts personally but if you use the "Search" functions on the forum to look for articles about hosts you should find a lot of information and people opinions.

Hope that helps.

i just want to know if i can put whatever i want...maybe semi nude sutff om my site..not the full fledge xxx and xxxx hardcore stuff....

i am not getting into trouble because of warez sutff also.

I have a multimedia site to put up with scantilly clad women going around in it( again no xxx stuff).

I have seen many severe restrictions on many things such as spam.....

How can anyone promote their site if you don't send mail????

I dont mean spam everybody on the planet about your site but send some mail to some people....

anyway if anyone can further help me investigate it is really appreciated.

Thanks

BOBVILLA out....
