I need a reseller account ASAP, that allows adult material due to some of my clients. The only postive feed back from companies that I could find on WHT.. that allow adult material where:

http://www.Hostabox.com
http://www.Okihost.com
http://www.Cybershouts.net
http://www.Simplyadulthosting.com

What do you guys think or know of these hosts, if I should choose any?

Thanks for your time.

I know someone from Okihost visits these forums. Never heard of the others. I suggest you try doing a seach of these forums and see if they have been previously discussed.

Good luck.

I have searched the forum, few results or comments. These were the better of the group of names I have been going through all week. Some I could not find a thing on, so did not list them or wrote them off. Hope I can find someone who is using any of these host.

CyberShouts is on my shortlist too - people seem to give them (genuine) recomendations - I'd love to hear more about them. (I wasn't aware they did adult material though)

Hostabox also seems to get mentions and seem to have a good rep - don't take my word for it though - I'm surprised you found few results using the search.

Like you I've been going through posts on here for about a week - I've found about twenty hosts that look appealing; and I've found about the same number that I wouldn't touch with a bargepole.

Currently I'm with Aletia (Jaguar) and a little-known company called SuccessfullHosting and I want to consolidate.

There are others - some may not necessarily advertise that they accept adult sites - but they do... so long as it's "legal" adult.

Just a thought.

There are also others such as http://www.phantasyworkshosting.com and http://www.cheetaweb.com that I believe do adult hosting as well.

Where did you find those in here (WHT)? DO they host adult content as well?

Couldn't tell you BoyWonder - adult content's not actually on my list of criteria ... ;)

I also have a list I was keeping at work. I'll add some more later! (and I don't know if they do adult content either...)

TinyButler
Enhanced
Dot5
MarkedOffHosting
5DollarHosting
AllAbout
Always
EconnHosting
Excel

It has the (in)famous Dot5 in there - don't know if you've been looking at them - what's the consensus on them these days?
