Hi,

I am currently doing a final year project on WAP application and I have more or less completed it. The final stage is to find a webhost to host the WAP application.

I have developed the current WAP application under the following conditions:

1) Windows 2000 IIS 5.0 with proper MIME types set (.wml, .wmls, .wbmp, .wmlsc, etc)
2) ASP for dynamic content of WML pages
3) 1 ODBC System DSN to MS Access for database

At the same time, I will use the webhost to host my family web pages in which I have not developed but will do so soon.

I am looking for the cheapest deal possible (less than $10 per month, I know it's hard). Therefore, please recommend any webhost that would meet the above requirements. I noticed that most Windows host does not offer the setting of custom MIME types unlike UNIX hosts.

Thanks heap! :)

Cheers,
Eric

If you need custom MIME types types check out Vortech (http://www.vortechhosting.com/). We can do this for 7.95 per month when per payed per year. We don't have this option on the site right now as we are change some of the plans around to add Unix support. But we can support custom MIME types all you have to do is let use know the ones you need.

Hi Vortech,

I can't seems to find the plan you have mentioned anywhere in your web pages. The cheapest is $14.95 per month.

Thanks.

It's the same package and all as the 14.95 plan. If you order in the Comments box just put you want the liteweb plan for a year per paid and it will be 7.95/mo. We just removed the year option this week that was the one thatw as 7.95 and have not had time to put every thign back in yet. :)
