Heylo, new here. :) I'm looking for a host thats is reliable and has a good reputation. Here's what I'm looking for:

~Atleast 30mb of space
~enough data transfer for a small site with low traffic(don't really know how much I need...)
~has to have a CGI-bin and the CGI scripts can be configurable
~atleast 5 subdomains(10 would be nice)
~can be able to pay by check
~able to register a domain with the host
~$60 CAD or cheaper(thats with the domain reg.) per year.


It'd be nice if the payment is per year too. :) Thnx

Is that $60.00 CDN for the domain name and the web hosting? or just for the domain name?

So you want to pay with a canadian check? I think that will be a little hard to find.

discount-hosting.com

They only charge you US10 for a year's service. But you gotta own a domain first though. Plus another US8 so you get hosting and doman for only US18 ^_^. That's kinda ok eh?

Good luck!

The are tons of hosts that allow payment with CDN cheques...you just have to look a little harder....

To my understanding of Yami's request...

- cgi-bin for running cgi scripts

And for discount-hosting.com does not have the above if I am not wrong :)

:) Thanks~! I'm not old enough to get a credit card and my parents refuse to put credit card info online, I'm forced to pay by check.

Thanks for all the suggestions~! :spiny:

if there is anymore let me know

*yes $60 per year including domain reg.*

Yami:

I've had good experience with Veoweb. There are some reasonable"low-cost" plans and you can pay by check.

The features you are looking for are also offered.

We have a few Canadian hosts here and you might want to post the above in the Requests Forum (below), just for gits and shiggles.
