5MB webspace and 1 GB bandwith?

Well anyway, try http://www.pair.com They should have hosting plans that suit for you.

Well, you might wanna take a look at http://www.Readyhosting.com

They have a bunch of features and the price is 99/year.

They have "unlimited bandwidth" which doesn't say much, but you should be able to get 1Gb I would imagine. There is a thread with the owner of the company. Search "readyhosting".

Good luck

Is it a spamming day in hell or what? Three admins edits?

Congrats on the Hat Trick Kunal! Keep it Up!
First Hat Trick on these forums I think.

Gonzo, you might wanna check out http://www.spidersaid.com - Wazeh runs them - he frequents here. Present spidersaid customers, please post your experiences here. They are on my shortlist for a website next month.

Hey BC, Kunal, Duster, Deb, Chicken, Chicken, Chicken,
(Yeah! I ran for chicken 2001, and proud of it).
Any opinions about Spidersaid?

Any opinions about Spidersaid?
They've only been in business since October of '00 -- a big red flag in my book. I'd rather host with someone who's been in the business longer. You certainly won't find many reviews about a host that new, nor will they have any kind of a reliable track record. They're hosted in the VDI IP block.

Deb,
How about liquidweb? Especially their track record in the areas of uptime, proper billing, after sales tech support, techincal expertise?

I also need suggestion about spidersaid and liquidweb from the other regulars out there.

Wing.

As far as either, I really couldn't offer much more than you could gather yourself from reading the posts on the board. Spider is 5 months old which is new but sometimes it is good to give a new host a chance.
