Web host recommendations?
Hi, all. I am new to this forum. After being scammed in the past by several web hosts, Cyberwings included, I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for any reliable and inexpensive web hosts? I usually like to pay a year a a time. I have been using Dixiesys.com and they have been great so far, but I would like to have a few other options. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

if you like dixiesys then I'd suggest staying with them...but you'll need to post your requirements for others to give you recommendations

That's just the thing, I am new to this and every web hosting site is offering a different amount of Storage & Transfers, but I don't know what is a respectable amount. I am sure more is better, but what is a decent amount?

Depends what type of site you'll be running.

I would say look around and see who is getting good reviews.. Off hand I can think of site5.com, ventureonline.com and mchost.com.. as well as dixie they seem to have a pretty good reputation around here.. It really all depends on what you are looking for and what you are willing to pay.. what options are you looking for that you cannot get a dixie? they seem to offer a pretty nice package.

This is not to say that you can't find a good deal. Just be careful is all.
Remember that if something is too good to be true, it's not true.
Dixiesys' prices are known to be quite reasonable, so they're not ripping you off. If you're happy, why risk going somewhere that you will be unhappy?

You better don't pay annually as you could lose your cash if things go wrong. Pay that bit extra and go monthly.

my advise is that if it aint broke, don't fix it. Stay with dixiesys. I've heard great things about them, dont move. =)
