Does anyone have some suggestions for an alternative host that offers similar features as Aletia -- that doesn't run php in safemode? My site is 200 MB, I use less than 5 gig in bandwidth a month but I like to have 10 gigs just in case. I'd like to keep the price under $20 per month, but uptime is important to me, too. Some room for growth would be appreciated as well.

Thanks in advance.

what about tera-byte.com???

what about tera-byte.com???

Their packages seem like what I'm looking for, thanks. Anyone have any noteworthy horror stories or good experiences they could share?

I have one site with terabyte . Although sometimes I have to run to chatline and ask for live support (my account sometimes get quota exceed although I just use about 30, 40 mb) , but it then solved quickly . Their support is good (although I often visit chatline at 1, 2, 3 a.m to ask for help) .
Sometimes it's down, but with the money you pay , with that bandwidth and space they offer, it's a reasonable .
Tera-byte.com and aletia.com are what I recommend , because I have sites hosted on those comps and I don't see much trouble .

Does Aletia run PHP in safemode? Why do they do that? Can someone tell me the difference between the safemode and normal PHP??

Safe mode:

Ahhhh, thanks. I've heard of save mode before, but never found out what it was, that's probably because I've never had the use for it.

I have heard some good things about them. They're with PWebTech with seems a good data center there is alot of people with them but I heard some bad things once we thought about going with them until they raised there prices and changed there packages after telling me a offer!.
